The higher the hair...

My hair has changed since I've had Teddy. The ends seem dryer, the color is a little lackluster and handfuls come out in the shower.  This is all normal after having a baby. It just sucks for want of a better word as it was so very lovely when I was pregnant. Oh well.

Usually the first thing I would do when I get sick of my hair is chop as much of it off as possible, but I'm giving myself until the end of the year before I get scissor happy. 

Here are a few styles I've tried out


A little bit of a poof. (how cute is my baby in his moose suit?)


Center part and wavy texture.


Giant bow for Christmas!


Yet another go at the beehive. I really want to get this right.


Straight.

 Middle part Helga Braids

What do you think guys? Shall I chop my bob back? Or just deep condition the heck out of my hair and keep it long?

The PERFECT sweater


Even though Anthropologie technically only goes up to a size 16 in some clothes I still try things on that look like they might fit.
Every now and again they do ( approximately 1 in 20 times would be my guess).




I am so glad I tried this sweater on.
 It is thin enough to not add a whole lot of extra weight to my frame, but snuggly enough to  keep me warm. 
I adore the little button on the neckline that attaches the drape; It's such a cool design element.
I honestly think it's the PERFECT sweater.

Color Block


 I scored this maxi dress in a 70% off Target sale figuring I'd keep it and wear it next spring....I couldn't wait, so I paired it with my favorite cardigan and my trusty boots.
If Atlanta clings to summer weather, then I can cling to my summer wardrobe.


Look how beautiful my city is.

Dress- Target
Cardigan- Simply Vera Vera Wang

Autumn Love


Today was perfect weather. I mean PERFECT! 
The sun was bright and light poured through the spaces in between brilliant shades of ruby, amber and gold leaves. 
There was a slight crispness to the air, and the sky was a pure azure. Honestly I gasped more than once driving home at the sheer beauty of an Atlanta Autumn.
I am smitten with this moment.
And I am smitten with this outfit. I wore it to go to work today, and I was so very comfortable. This is going into heavy rotation.

5 Years!

I made my wedding anniversary very easy to remember when I decided that 02-04-06 would be the day we'd get hitched. Friday was our 5th year of calling each other husband and wife.
We had dinner at Seasons 52 which is somewhat of a tradition. I just adore rustic vegetables. Yum.
 I had chicken cabernet and Shane had steak and potatos. We listened to live piano music and giggled our way through our meal. I must admit I love that man of mine.

Dress ASOS Curve- It's a little too big, but I can sinch it with the built in belt in the back.
Heart necklace- Francescas
Disk Necklace- Vintage
Tights- ASDA
Shoes-Junkmans Daughter in Little 5


my favorite part of my outfit you ask?

THE BUTTONS!!!!
So cute :)
