Style Favorites: Maternity Edition

I'm currently 7 weeks postpartum and cleared to start getting back to "normal" activity. It seems like enough time to have had a look at what I wore during my pregnancy and to know what I really liked and what didn't work for me.  I showed really late, I was probably around 25-26 weeks before I had a bump that took me out of my normal clothes and even then I was still fairly small. Because of that I didn't really invest in maternity clothing. By the time I got to the point where things didn't fit or I didn't like how they fit I was less than 10 weeks from my due date. That said, we had 3 weddings to attend this year and my baby shower. I also worked until I went into labor, which was luckily a Sunday, so I did have to dress myself until the end. Another disclaimer, I was able to have a relaxed wardrobe for work which also kept me from buying more maternity wear and using what I had in my closet.

Jelly Time


So I've just finished up my senior collection show as of last thursday and I've been procrastinating putting up my post about all of that but I swear its happening. But more importantly in my opinion is the Foot wear. I spent weeks trying to decide the right foot wear, source and price something that would work. After not having enough time to buy my first choice pair I found, in my opinion the ultimate alternate. Having spent most of my childhood in the 90s (I was born in '92) jellies were a huge part of summer wardrobe. I don't know why but I have a very distinctive memory of a purple and glitter pair, I loved them so much I had them at least two years in a row. These babies aren't purple or glittery but they're a fun and a bit more grown up. That said I for see myself snagging some more glittery and colorful pairs before the summer's out. I had to buy a bunch for my show so I got them from Go Jane, where the black seems to be sold out currently, and Tilly's, their stock is also running low. They were on sale on both sites I had seen them on Charlotte Russe but were only available in the flat style when I was writing this post. If you don't feel like spending upwards of $40 for the JuJu Jellies than these are a good try. I've only worn them twice so far, the first wear definitely felt like they were cutting into my feet but didn't seem to leave any marks. I wore them with socks for a bit and that felt way more comfortable so I might be investing in some cute socks to wear with them as well. Currently loving though and I've been DYING to share!!
