I'm not dead, don't worry...

See?

I'm still alive! Yay!

But I was definitely under the weather last week and as you might have been able to tell, my motivation has been somewhat lacking as of late. )c: 

So I'm seriously thinking about joining the land of the living this week and making a real go of blogging, too...I said I'm *thinking* about it, who knows if it will actually happen or not *wink wink*

So there are definitely some things that have been rolling around this preggers sicky brain of mine and some stuff going on:

I found this print that I'm snapping up immediately because it's adorable and oh-so-springtime-y:


I picked up this little nightstand that is just begging for an overhaul, that cute little shape and fun hardware was just too good to pass up for $10 (hey, it's about time the hubby had a proper nightstand, right?):


And it had been *FOREVER* since my last proper haircut (no really, like 2 years...), so I chopped about 6 inches off my ridiculously long hair...and you can barely tell. Oi vey.

I swear, it's a lot shorter...

And for those of you that are curious about how fat I'm getting the baby bump, here's real proof that I really am knocked up expecting:



And that's only at 15 weeks people...you can just imagine the size at full term. Again, OI VEY. (c;

The upside is that we get to find out what we're having in two weeks!!! And don't worry, I'm not very fond of my bump pictures, so there won't be a whole slew of them (c;

And with that I bid you good day and happy Monday!

Friday's Fancies: Nice + NEON!!!

For us children of the '80's, there might still be some residual trauma from the first go 'round of the neon trend...

So just in case you still have these images in your head when you think of neon:



Let me try and persuade you that it's so much more radical this time around:


Heels * Jeans * Blouse * Bag * Necklace

But seriously, those *HEELS*...they are the most beautiful things I've ever laid my shoe-coveting little peepers on. DYING.

And there's plenty more where that neon love fest came from...can you tell I'm partial to day-glow yellow?

Neon Lights




Granted, it's still probably not for everyone, but daaaaaang if some of these ladies aren't just killin' it:





And while we're on the subject of sunshine and rainbows, I can't tell you how much I've missed visiting you all! I know I've been a total bum and I really wish I had more hours in a day!

Here's hoping this is a laid back and relaxing weekend...*fingers crossed*

Happy Weekend!

Friday's Fancies: Shoes, Shoes, Shoes!

Isn't it always all about the shoes? Of course it is. 

That is why I want my closet to look like this:


Heaven.

However, I could settle for adding a couple of these beauties to my addiction collection:




I definitely love some metallics, but I've been craving color this spring...and neon, no less (c:

Any pretty footwear you've been lusting over lately???

Happy Weekend, fellow footwear fanatics!

Stella & Dot and Autism Awareness

When Lauren asked if I wanted to partner up to promote Autism Awareness with Stella & Dot, you know I couldn't say no! 


There are too many people that I hold dear affected by it and I'm thrilled that they are trying to spread the word and help these amazing kiddos.

Lauren asked me to host an online trunk show, so if you are interested in shopping for a cause, and if you're like me, you're looking for any reason to shop (c;...


all pieces from Stella & Dot's line to promote Autism Awareness

They are going to donate a *minimum* of $10,000 to this cause, I would love to see it be so much more!!!

Shopping is never a bad way to start off a Monday, is it? (c:


*I was not compensated for this post and am not associated with Stella & Dot in any way, just love their jewelry and a great cause (c: *

Friday's Fancies: Gone Dotty!

Don't you just love Fridays?

I have to admit I loved them less before I had Friday's Fancies to get my creative juices flowing and my fashion lust growing (c;

News flash: Polka dots are *everywhere*.

I know, now that I've broken this major fashion secret to you, you've got all the answers to all the burning questions of the universe.

You're welcome.

Gone Dotty




Even better now that you can dress in head to toe dots, no? 

Even though this *might*, just might not be breaking news to ya, I'm pretty sure this cute lil' pattern of whimsy is going to be around for quite a while.

I mean, Kate Spade is never wrong.

Happy Weekend, my dotties!

Linkin' it up!

The Bunny was here...

Still recovering from your jelly bean and peeps hangover?

Yeah, us too.

It was a fun filled weekend for sure, but it seems like every time a holiday is over, we've had a fantastic day...but I'm okay with it being a whole year until it comes again (c:

This is what we were up to this weekend:

 




And probably best of all, we actually got a picture of *ALL* of us together. It's an Easter miracle, people.


The little man looks like he's in pain, but don't worry, he's just taking a picture...it's tantamount to torture for him. 

How was your Easter? Any good ideas for next year??? (c;
