Helping women love what they wear on a budget

What I Wore this Week- Maternity Style

October 30, 2015 by Katie Haller

It’s been a while since I last documented my work outfits, but this week I thought that I would try to spruce up my work wardrobe a bit.  As I have mentioned before, my current job has a very casual dress code, which I’m really enjoying right now.  Being pregnant, I want to be comfortable all the time.  I also hate dressing sloppy, so I actually try every day to put something cute together that I will feel good in. 
Here is what I came up with this week.  (Please excuse my messy bathroom.  It’s been so dark when I am getting ready for work that this is the only room with decent lighting.) 
Monday
Tank top- Target (similar)
Denim button-down- Target (similar)
Leggings- Kohl’s (similar)
Shoes- Target (similar)
Tuesday
Shirt- Target (similar)
Sweater- Forever 21 (similar)
Jeans- Old Navy (similar)
Shoes- Old Navy (similar)
Wednesday
Shirt- Target (similar)
Sweater- TJ Maxx (similar)
Jeggings- Ross (similar)
Shoes- DSW (similar)
Thursday
Shirt- Old Navy (similar)
Sweater- Target (similar)
Jeans- Old Navy (exact)
Shoes- Target (similar)

There’s no look for today because I don’t have to worry about getting dressed for work.  It’s Nevada Day… a holiday I had never heard of before I moved to Las Vegas.  I’m not sure why every state doesn’t celebrate their state with a day off work?
I hope everyone enjoys the Halloween weekend!

My Closet~ Weekend Wardrobe

August 30, 2015 by Katie Haller

It’s been so long since I’ve posted an outfit.  To be honest, ever since I found out I was pregnant, I haven’t worn any cute outfits.  I’ve been wearing leggings almost every day.  To put together a cute outfit seems exhausting to me, but I’m trying to get back to my normal self.
Here’s my outfit from today. 

Dress- Target (similar)
I bought this dress at Target a couple weeks ago.  It was a clearance find for around $13.  I haven’t done a whole lot of shopping this summer, because I’m waiting until my belly gets bigger and I then I’ll really have to go shopping.  This dress is perfect because I will be able to wear it for a while.  It’s stretchy and comfortable, which is just what I’m looking for right now.

Happy Mother’s Day!! 💕 Today I am truly embracing this day and remembering how much I always wanted to be a mom! 

I recently came across a journal entry I wrote 10 years ago on Mother’s Day—right after my second miscarriage. I wrote that I was ready to be a mom, but I was so scared and worried about our future. I didn’t know when and if it would actually happen. 

One month later, I was pregnant with my son.

And now here I am, ten years later—tired, busy, deeply grateful, and fully embracing this season I once wanted so so bad! 

To every mom today—in the waiting, in the chaos, or missing the days that flew by—I see you. We are all in this together! 💕
