The heat is getting real around here, y’all. I’m not one to normally wear my hair up or back (which I really need to work on) but once it starts sticking to your head from sweat and humidity, it’s time to do something. I tried the double inside out braid I’ve seen a lot of people wearing and I think I dig it! I think #1) it looks better on blondes or people with multiple shades of color in their hair and #2) it looks better on people who have thicker hair. I can’t get mine to be all big and dramatic like some braids I’ve seen. Who knows, maybe with some work!

I think I would consider this outfit my momiform. I’ve been living in J. Jills slub knits and slouchy tees. They are so comfy! And these shorts. If you’re pregnant, buy them. They’re maternity, but the side elastic kind and they are just the most comfortable things. Oh and they’re on sale right now! They also come in a skinny jean version (25% off those with code SHOPSALE) that I don’t have, but may by the end of this pregnancy.
This necklace is from 31 Bits. It’s an amazing new to me company that has all sorts of pretty jewelry, made in Uganda. The Ugandan women that make these pieces, out of bits of paper, are able to make a living and support their families. Such a worthy cause!
In other news, I’m 27 weeks pregnant! Y’all. I will be full term in 10 weeks. 10! That’s 10 weekends to get stuff done. Like finish the nursery! Ahhhhh! I only have 12 weekends max and that makes me all sorts of giddy!
