    Stripes

    DETAILS: top | tank | jeans | booties Stripes have become my best friend when it comes to clothing! I love wearing them as a neutral and as my pregnancy goes on, you’ll be seeing me wear it more and more. Stripes go with everything so you can even mix them up and style them with another print like floral, leopard or even another variation of stripes! I’ve really enjoyed this flowy top from GG Boutique and I have worn it so many times the past two weeks! I throw it on with leggings, colored jeggings, flats and heeled booties. This shirt is so comfortable and I’ve gotten so many compliments on…

    Be still my heart!

    Valentine’s Day is almost here y’all! Who else is getting pumped about all the hearts and candy? Nolan loves any excuse to celebrate, and ever since we walked into Target a few weeks ago and he saw the décor everywhere, the questions have come back-to-back! I love hearing the excitement he builds up about celebrating, and once I explained that he can give out Valentine’s to his friends, he’s been all about this holiday. When I was a kid I used to LOVE the chalky candy hearts with messages written on them, but I have since learned those little candies and others are packed with processed sugars and other yucky ingredients. Like Halloween, Easter, and Christmas, a sugar…

    I’m back!

    Oh y’all, I am SO sorry for taking a break from blogging.  The past two weeks have been INSANE! I’ve been out of town in Charleston because of two prenatal appointments and my mother’s back surgery.  For a week, I took care of her and three of my nieces and nephews along with my two kids. Derrek thankfully held down the fort at Sweet Tea Jewels, and although I missed his cute face off, I am forever thankful for his help with our business. I found out at my prenatal appointments that I am officially 14 weeks and just getting into my SECOND trimester. I love being pregnant, and just being aware of every…

    Babies”R”Us Registry Party

    When you’re pregnant, it’s a bit overwhelming to make a baby registry, especially with all the ever-changing options out there. I’ve had two babies and now that I’m pregnant with our third, I knew exactly what I wanted for this sweet little soul in my belly. Thanks to Babies”R”Us, new mamas and mamas with multiple kids have a great place to go for more education on selecting baby products for their registry. Babies”R”Us has put together a country-wide in-store registry party where moms-to-be can go and talk to trained professionals about what products would be most beneficial to add to their registry and also ask any questions they might have. As a new mom,…

    Colored Organics

    Nolan’s sweatshirt |  Harper’s shirt | cardigan | leggings  One of the reasons why I love social media is finding amazing companies like Colored Organics. When we started communicating a few months ago about working together, I knew we would be a perfect fit! Colored Organics is a 100% sweatshop-free, organic cotton clothing company that makes the best basic clothing for yourself, little boys and girls! This company was also founded by a MOM (you know this excites me!) that was horrified that the children working in sweatshops that produce mainstream clothing are not much older than her own. She started her company, and it now makes clothing with  naturally hypoallergenic fabrics that create non-toxic pieces that…
