I’m now 29 weeks along in my pregnancy (third trimester!) and I’m due Aug 24th. This will be my second child, but my first boy, so I’m pretty excited. I went to see my midwife last night for my monthly appointment and both my midwife and the attending trainee commented on how fabulous my tummy…
I’ve noticed a serious lacking of belts in most women’s wardrobes. My friends and family are always asking me for fashion advice and they’ll show me a top they just bought or a dress in their closet and give me the same story – “I just don’t know how to wear it!” Almost every time,…

Lavender is known worldwide for its calming, soothing benefits and its clean, sweet floral fragrance. Enjoy the goodness of lavender oil, lemon oil and blue cedarwood in this lightweight, fragrant lotion. Being pregnant, my sense of smell is like that of a bloodhound.

Pregnancy is probably one of the most uncomfortable experiences you will endure as a woman. Whether it’s the morning sickness, cravings and cramps during the first trimester, to not being able to find a position you can actually sleep in the last month of your pregnancy, the whole 9 months are less than pleasant for…
Here in LA, the weather turned Springy and gorgeous last week, which got me itching for flirty new blouses. I hit my favorite shops filled with optimism and energy, and I found some fabulous pieces. But not before coming to terms with a style that just doesn’t look good on me. Behold: Anthurium blouse ($88…

Finding maternity clothes I would willingly wear in public has proved to be more difficult this time around, then with my last pregnancy in 2006/2007. Maybe I’m just more picky this time around or maybe it’s because the trends are very much NOT maternity friendly, but fashioning my growing bump has been a chore! After…
