Last week, I did a guest post at DotComsForMoms on some clothing pieces for fall.

And hope you had a great Thanksgiving weekend! My mom and stepdad visited and we sort of cheated with our Thanksgiving feast by ordering Harris Teeter’s prime-rib takeout, pies from Trader Joe’s, and even some sushi. Not your typical Thanksgiving dinner but everyone here (besides me) was adamant about NO turkey!

Totally random, as I never do any style posts, but this is what happens when your wardrobe is whittled down to only three tops and a single pair of pants. And I might as well call this a fantasy getup because I doubt Thakoon and Miu Miu will ever grace my closet, but I can’t help pining for some of my non-pregnant style favorites. Like high waisted skirts, structured blouses that can be tucked in, tights, and super high heels. As reality has it, I am waddling around in leggings and flip flops, trying my best to manage with an extra 45 lbs. Yep.

These Proenza Schouler shoes slay me. I seriously get on some high just looking at them, admiring them, and saving the images onto my desktop. They’d set you back a thousand bones or more, but if you look at it in the context that they are art, I think the astronomical price and high likelihood that you couldn’t walk in them like a normal human being makes a bit more sense.

In an Etsy hunt for vintage scarves, I discovered the loveliness that is Vera Neumann. (I may have bugged a certain Ryan Kirk for one as a birthday gift!)

Check out Etsy shop The Lucky Fish. She has quite the collection of Vera Neumann scarves for sale, and right now, they are all 20% off. I’m a little confused as to why she is not sold out? They’re all so beautiful.

I hold my love and disdain for these in equal parts. Trendy they may be, pretty they most certainly are not. But regardless, these booties make my heart beat fast. Their price tags are astronomically out my type of budget, so a rummage through Ventura’s many thrift stores is in order.
