1 – This is a maxi dress I bought from Target last year. It is soooo comfy! (Cute and comfy are my rules πŸ˜‰ ) I love that this is a neutral color and I can pair it with almost any cardigan!

2 – Blue for a boy! I plan to wear this to my upcoming baby shower! I ordered this skirt off of amazon. Click here to see! The skirt is very comfy… but it is pretty thin. I would make sure to wear appropriate things underneath πŸ˜‰ or have a shirt that covers your bottom! My top is a maternity top from Target and my jacket is from American Eagle. (Also super comfy!)

3 – These are the most comfy maternity jeans I tried on. They are from Motherhood Maternity. They are around $30 bucks! This top was a gift from my mother-in-law also from Motherhood Maternity. These jeans are comfy but I still prefer not to have to wear anything on my little bump. Thank the Lord spring is here! πŸ˜‰ . No more pants for me!

4 – These pants are not maternity, and they are still fitting! I’m not sure how much longer they will fit but fingers crossed. πŸ˜‰ . They are from the brand Carrie Underwood at Dick’s Sporting Goods. I have had these pants for about two years. They have a very wide belly band around the top of the pants that have worked perfectly for my growing bump! My shirt is from Walmart and is also not maternity. This is my perfect run errands or work around the house outfit!

4.5 – These shoes are adorable! They are from Target. I bought them this past weekend. My husband actually found them and picked them out for me. I am such a lucky gal… training him right. πŸ˜‰ . These are perfect for maternity because you don’t have to tie them and they are … guess… comfy! If you see them at Target grab them now!! They were almost all gone when I got mine.

5 – Leggings are a must with pregnancy! These have a warm lining in them which is nice for those chilly spring days. I got these from Motherhood Maternity! I would recommend buying a few pairs if you wear leggings a lot. They do start to wear out after a few washes. (That annoying cotton like peach fuzz all over them.) . My top is not a maternity top, but it is from the boutique called Dry Goods. I purchased this shirt last year.

My 4 Other Must Haves!

1 – Baby Be Mine 2 in 1 Maternity Night Gown. Click Here!

This is all I have been wearing to sleep in! My husband even says he thinks it looks cute! I plan to order a new one to add to my collection. Some people have even worn these out as dresses! Oh, and the patterns, love!

2 – Body pillow

I had heard that you “have to have” a pregnancy pillow. I didn’t believe them till my second trimester. I didn’t really want to pay out all that money for a pillow. So I just used a body pillow that I had at home and it has been working great!

3- Lotion, Lotion, Lotion

I’m not sure if it is the pregnancy or the horribly cold winter but my poor skin had to suffer. I recently started reusing the Peter Thomas Roth Hydrating Gel on my face! It has saved my skin! Within two uses my dry patches got better! Click here to check it out on Amazon!

My skin on the rest of my body wasn’t much better. My doctor before I was pregnant recommended Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream for the harsh winters. It worked great with dry patches on my arms. I even used it while pregnant on my belly. I recently switched to Burts Bees Mama Bee lotion for my growing bump. So far so good with no stretch marks. I believe that has more to do with your genetic genes than your lotions. πŸ˜‰

4 – Snacks!

I am a gluten free vegetarian with a bit of a sweet tooth. I have enjoyed Crispy Chocolate Rice Bars from Envirokidz. These are sold at Kroger and Meijer. These have been perfect to throw in my purse when I need a snack while running errands. Enjoy Life Protein Bites by Enjoy Life – also very yummy! I eat a few of these each morning before my smoothie. My husband loves them as well. You can buy these at Meijer. Second Nature Wholesome Medley has been a favorite afternoon snack. You can purchase these from Meijer or Kroger. It’s a mixture of nuts, raisins, cranberries, and chocolate. πŸ˜‰

These are the things I have been using on a daily basis for the past 27 weeks. If you have any recommendations please leave them in the comments below! Follow me on instagram – gracefullyfashionable – to see more of my favorites! Happy Friday!

3 Favorite Shoes for Spring – Must Haves! Minimalistic!

3 favorite spring shoes

I am so happy to not have to wear socks anymore! Anyone else feel me? I love just being able to slip my feet into a pair of flip-flops and out the door I go! While I’ve been a handbag-o-holic my whole life, I have never been as obsessed about shoes.

However, as I’m trying to become more minimalistic, I am trying to lessen all my items I have in my life, shoes included. Now I don’t plan on only owning 3 pairs of shoes for myself. I think minimalistic is a lifestyle change that you grow into gradually. And most importantly, it is just keeping what you love in your life.

But! If I had to pick, these would be my top 3 favorite spring shoes.

 

3 favorite spring shoes

-1- These adorable sandals that I believe I got from American Eagle years ago. I think these shoes look great with jeans or pair them with a causal dress. Also they are so comfy. You can probably find sandals very similar to this almost anywhere right now during spring season.

-2- Rose Gold is my color, I love it! My mother bought these adorable sandals for me last year, I believe from Shoe Carnival. I think they are perfect to wear on a night or day you just want to feel a little more put together.

-3- Nike running shoes. Now I am not a runner, but I love wearing these shoes whenever I am going to be more active like working outside the house or doing a lot of shopping. πŸ˜‰Β  Β I bought these shoes from Kohls and they are always getting new colors out in this brand. Watch out for sales and you can get a good deal!

With these three shoes I can handle all my errands, dates, and adventures that my week holds. What is a shoe you can’t live without?

Happy Tuesday,
