Easy Casual Winter Outfits With Jeans

Easy Casual Winter Outfits

Is it still January??  This is the longest month of the year for me by far.  It’s also probably one of the hardest months of the year for me to dress for.  Coats and boots are all fun and cute the first few weeks you wear them, but when you need to be bundled up every day it can get a bit boring for me.  That’s why this month I have been focusing on sharing a lot of easy winter outfit ideas.  You may have seen some of my winter outfit reels on Instagram.

When you are in your first trimester and early second trimester, it’s often hard to figure out what to wear.  You might be feeling your body changing, but to the outside world around you, it may just look like you ate a big lunch.  I like to call this stage of pregnancy the “before the bump” stage.  For me, I just want to be comfortable during all the stages of my pregnancy, so figuring out how to dress for each one is important.
