Mamanista Fridays: Aztec Print Pants


I have to tell ya'll my secret.  I have been terrified of  design/print leggings.  I think they are super cute, but I was not reallyu sure how to style them.  My friends Parker from Everyday Runway and Cassandra from Gems N Baubles have been trying relentlessly to get me into a pair. 

Well this weekend while in Indy, I purchased my very first pair!!!  i was excited and scared at the same @#!^ time!  So here is my look:

Weekend Style: OOTD Maxi Skirt

I hope everyone had a fabulous Memorial Day Weekend!  And thank you to all the troops for your work and dedication to this country!

This weekend, I spent time with family in Indianapolis for the weekend.  Mister, Morgan and I had a chance to hang out with my mother, grandmother, aunts, and cousins.  Indy is not as warm as ATL, so I decided to rock out my maxi skirts.

Fly Byu Buys

I haven't done any sales post in quite a while.  I was preggers all last summer, so I wasnt able to update my summer wardrobe.  Now, everything I have is 2 seasons old.  That doesn't bother me too much, but I need some new fresh pieces in my closet that I can just throw on and go.  Comfort is really important to me now since I have a little CurvieBirdie that goes where I go!

Old Navy is having a sale on their shorts and crop pants, and offering 20% off your purchase of $75 or more!!!  Super win win situation.

 

 
 



Ankle pants start at $19. 

So do you add to your collection every season?  What types of looks are you going to be rocking this summer?  What is your favorite summer trend this year?

OOTD: Mister's Mother's Day Gift

Yesterday was my very first Mother's Day, and Mister made it a good one.  He made me breakfast in bed, bought me a beautiful dress, and took me out to dinner at one of my favorite restaurants!  Very fun filled and pack day.  He even let me take a nap while he and Morgan played!!

So, ya'll know I don't trust Mister to dress himself.  When we go out, he picks from the items I bought for him.  He can wear whatever he wants when he is alone!  Anyways, yesterday morning in walks Mister and Morgan carrying my Mothers Day gift.  It was in a Torrid bag, so I was a bit scared.  Here is what he picked out:

Something to Chirp About: Fashion Mistakes

I was reading an article on MSN, and ran across this article.  It talks about 12 mistakes that people make, but there are only a few that I thought I would mention.

1.   Ignoring what’s underneath


I see this all the time.  I have talked about it, posted about it, but some people just don't care.  I know I'm a CurvieBirdie, but you will not see any rolls under my clothes.  There are tons of products on the market to avoid these types of mishaps.  This also includes bad fitting bras and ugly panty lines.

2.  Buying clothes that don’t fit.



Just because you can squeeze into it doesn't mean you should wear it. I never understood why someone would buy a size 14 when the size 16 fits so much better.  And lets not forget when we buy clothes that won't fit until we loose that extra 10 pounds.  Waste!!  Buy clothes for now.  When you have this type of behavior, going into the closet to get dressed will be devastating!

3.  Sticking to set “outfits.”


OMG!!!! I truly can't stand this.  As fashionistas, we have to step out of the box when it comes to clothing.  I have a girlfriend back home that I would always say this too.  She felt if she bought a pair of Guess Jeans, she had to get the matching shirt and wear her Guess shoes.  I would tell her all the time that you can only wear a whole outfit a few times and that buying pieces would give her more styling options.  Mix it up!!

4.  Becoming a fashion victim


How many times have you heard this "You can't wear everything your friends wear."  Just because something looks cute on your friend, doesn't mean that you can get the same results.  Look at the picture.  Enough said!

So how do you feel about these Fashion Mistakes?  What would you add to the list?
