So today the boyfriend finally got a day off after a long 2 weeks of busy work, I was excited because I've been wanting to go to Ikea for ages just to get some inspiration on decorating our room or as I call it, our tiny home. The weather was at a beautiful 72°F so I figured a light sweater or jacket would do, but lately, I feel like I struggle to find cute outfits because of my new mommy pooch I have and it ends up putting me in a bad mood. Not day Thalia, not today! I put on some comfy "mom" jeans (they seriously go all the way up past my belly button), a simply back shirt and decided to accessorize with a cute sweater and chunky scarf. •Scarf - Target •Sweater - Forever 21+ •Shoes - Target •Jeans - (found in my closet!) •Black blouse - Target I felt really confident today in my comfy outfit. And I loved how the scarf helped hide my belly too!
After a hot dog and Loganberry drink, we walked around the warehouse and we stumbled upon these little toadstools! I can't wait to go back and get one for Benji's playroom. It was a cute concept because they literally just added a toadstool hat onto a plain white stool which is cute and an easy DIY! Ikea always makes me want to redecorate everything! Ever since I became a fan of the Saccone-Jolys on Youtube, I vowed to myself that I'd be just as fabulous as Anna. Anna is a mommy of 2 under 2 (sorta) and she looks damn fabulous every single day! She's a stay at home mom and dresses like a single lady ready to take on the world! I always read peoples comments on her videos saying "Glad she didn't let go of herself like most mom's do" and it hits me; I'm one of those moms! I remember before I even got pregnant I always told myself "you're never gonna be those mom's that don't brush their hair and wear the same clothes 3 days in a row" and now, here I am, unbrushed hair, and wearing the same yoga pants and jurassic park shirt 3 days in a row. But why? I know alot of people could look at me or read this post and say "ugh she's so lazy!" And the fact is, Hell, I am and I hate it! I'm not lazy to take care of my son or my home, so why is it so hard to care for myself? Sometimes I find excuses and say, "well you did have a long night, so it's ok to sleep in", or "well you aren't gonna go out so it's fine". But every time I look in a mirror, I'm not happy with myself and the way I look, tired frumpy looking mom. I look at @voxamberlynn on instagram, and even on her lazy days she looks hot. So now, here I am writing this post. I SHALL and I WILL put more effort into myself. I vow to get up early to tend to myself, I vow that it's ok to not always wear make up, but at least brush my hair and change my clothes, I vow that I need to make myself feel beautiful for my owns sake! And I vow, to try my hardest to not give up on myself.
From good publicity, to bad publicity, the Kardashian's are well known in this country, or should I say, anywhere in the world. If you're not a fan of them, I suggest you stay away from this post! I know a lot of people think they are very stuck up snobby people, but as a fan since 2007 since they first aired Keeping Up with the Kardashian's, I can say I in fact am a fan. I just think they're beautiful even though Kim does have a little nasty cocky vibe. Sorry Kim! Ever since I became a mommy, my style in fashion has completely changed. From wearing band t-shirts to gamer shirts, to total hipster outfits, as a young mom, I want people to take me serious and not think "well there goes a young mom that has no idea what she's doing". I know I shouldn't care what people think of me and I should dress however I want, but now, I find myself being a little more mature than my age and thats not bad either! Of course I'm not gonna dress like a grandma, but I do want to have an elegant twist to my wardrobe; that's were the Kardashian's come in. My all time favorite has to be Kourtney. Being a mommy herself, I find myself very close to her interests! From finding the new organic products to her home decor and all the interest she has in her little ones, she's definitely my spirit animal! I just love how she can look so elegant yet look comfortable and casual. Casual is my middle name! And even though I'm not the biggest fan of Kim, I adore how chic and classy she always looks! Even though she is always dressed in these massive pumps and very glamorous dresses, I am in love with these classy yet casual looks. I am a very big fan of scarves and cardigans. I think they can make any dull outfit into a very chic and put together one!
What do you think makes a good fashion statement? |
