Monday
I am in such a tough shape right now… the body is constantly morphing, tightening, loosening, changing. I bought these white jeans a couple weeks ago and they were snug. I wore them Saturday and they got super baggy. Today they look a mess, even after being tossed in the dryer. Way too large. Sucks because they can't be returned after being laundered and worn so much. I shouldn't have even worn them today but I am still low on trousers for work and my other pairs were either recently worn or dirty.
Same holds true for shoes – none of my shoes from last summer fit and I don't want to purchase any old crap so I am low on appropriate summer work footwear. On the lookout for some tan sandals with a wood heel!

This weekend was okay… Saturday was my husband's cousin's son's 2nd birthday so we went to that and saw his family (who I adore). After that my husband had a photo shoot so E and I headed home for a nap. We woke exactly when my husband got home and went to a local diner for a late dinner. Sunday we pretty much hung around the home. I went to a couple Open Houses with my sister who is looking to buy a house. We then just spent time at home.
Just wanted to say I had a baby at just about the same time as you, and it helps me so much to read your posts as I’m going through the same exact thing. Stuff is tight one week and saggy the next, but at the same time a lot of nice clothes are still hanging in the closet unwearable! It’s definitely frustrating at times – thanks for helping this fashion-interested mom feel a little better.
LOVE the blue and white! You look so classy!!

You look great and that colour combo is so cool and fresh!
– Longtime reader, de-lurking.
You still look great! You’re steps ahead of me when I was new mom. I was in such a rut, all I wore for like the first 9 months post partum was the same damned “Marines” tshirt and the same two pairs of jeans. Eventually it was whittled down to one pair. And the zipper was broken!
I know about that struggle but it will even out soon!! despite that you look great!!!
I am sorry that you are struggling with the clothes and shoes at the moment!
The blue colour is great on you!
I was thinking you this weekend with all the Bonaroo hype, I remembered how you posted that you were pregnant at Bonaroo. Woah, how quickly time has passed! You are still fab.
That blue is a great color on you. I’ve been on the hunt for white pants or crops for a while now. It’s frustrating…I think white has to fit *just right.*
I would be frustrated, too, but you really do look great! Here’s a link to some tan shoes I had considered:

How frustrating for a stylish femme such as yourself to be in constant flux! Hope you reach some equilibrium soon, beautiful …
