Friday's Fancies: May Flowers!

April showers are alright, I guess...but MAY FLOWERS!?! My Fave.

Don't you think I could still fit a pregnant belly into this outfit??? Totes.

And I just can't get over the lovely floral of those shorts...especially in that lovely sunny shade of yellow (c:

May is pretty much my favorite month EVER...Mother's Day *and* my birthday...all wrapped up in a month that is usually fantastic weather and sometimes they even make my birthday a national holiday (yeah, I guess it's Memorial Day technically, but when it falls on my birthday...).

And to top it all off, this year we'll also be finding out if we're having a wee princess or wee prince joining our family. 

WHEW!

Crazy month, right???

This calls for more fabulous floral inspiration:

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.

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!

Friday's Fancies: Autumn Faves!!!

There is something about the weather cooling off that makes me crave PUMPKIN.

 The smell of pumpkin spice, pumpkin bread, pumpkin spice egg nog... ...and Pumpkin Whoopie Pies! 

 Oh man, these are probably one of my favorite fall treats...I'm a frosting fanatic and so the filling of these little pumpkin treats gets me every time!

And speaking of gets me every time: Floral jeans and capes.

Just love them.
