baby got bump

I swear it was just Friday, wasn't it?? i don't know how i even know what day or time it is anymore, my sleep deprivation has me a bit out of sorts. todays look goes back to a few weeks ago (obvi) when i had the privilege of co-hosting Moon & Lola's CFW Kick Off Party with the super fabulous Andrea Serrano aka Charleston Shop Curator. if you're looking for some serious high-fashion inspiration, her blog is serving it up on a daily dose!!

thank goodness for this Isabella Oliver dress, because it got me through the last few weeks of pregnancy. i layered it up with leather the first time around (seen HERE), but since the weather was finally heating up, there was no need for a jacket and even though the bump was beyond huge, i just love the way this body-con hugs every last curve and showed off my big ole belly. i mean, at this point, i felt like it was a medal of honor to carry around this babe so why not show it off?

back to boho today for a little belted tunic action. I love how in fashion you can change your style on a moments notice. I'm still really utilizing a lot of black these days, but its nice to switch it up from the rocker vibe I've had going on lately. coming into spring, I'm happy to see that the Navajo/bohemian influence hasn't gone anywhere because I totally have a closet full of kimonos and fringe that I plan on keeping in heavy rotation. this tunic is the perfect transition style, and if I wasn't so pregnant, its actually long enough to wear as a dress, but I chose not to scare the neighbors and paired it with these coated leggings. I usually love flowy tops over my bump, but I tried something new and belted it for a little accentuation to my new found "curves". I had a hard time deciding on heels and totally did the mirror shot selfie test to ask my bff her thoughts. tell me i'm not the only one who does this?? at least once a week I text outfit options to my gfs asking for advice on which shoe/bag/jacket looks best. seriously, what did we do before camera phones?? in the end, these nude lace-ups won over black for a little POC (even if that color happens to not actually be a color). for my accessories, I really embraced the arrowhead trend, which I'm obviously totally into right now, and layered on this double tier necklace and my B&B bangles. for an added touch of bohemian, this handchain from my current RocksBox set seals the deal!! and FYI, rocksbox is totally spreading the love by giving you guys your first month for free!! just use the code: TARAXOXO2

I promise, i have yet to be disappointed in my sets, the only sad part is having to box up the goodies and send them back, but in a short 3-5 days my new set arrives and I fall in love all over again!!

baby loading

happy Monday babes!!

sorry I took a little hiatus last week, I full on planned to blog throughout the week, but my schedule was a little cray with all the CFW events, so it just didn't happen. I can't wait to recap the week with you though, it was pretty MAJOR!!!!

in the mean time, Baby M is still loading, and comfort is my best friend in these last few weeks. dresses are obviously an easy choice when the weather permits, but when the random chilly day pops up (like today's dreary forecast) it is nice to have some go to layers that feel like pjs, but are actually socially acceptable to wear to the grocery store. Insert Preggo Leggings here!! you guys, I have to tell you, pregnant or not, these leggings are my new best friend!! first off, they're like crazy comfy which most leggings are, but the high waistband makes them that much better!! no restrictions on my waistline pinching my tummy as it expands through the day, yes please!! and, ok, im totally a firm believer that leggings are just that LEGGINGS! meaning, they're not pants, so you need to wear a longer shirt to cover your hind quarters. you know you've gotten stuck behind the woman rocking a pair of 2 sizes too small leggings and you can see every bit of what God gave her, including the hot pink panties she's wearing underneath, right? but today im totally contradicting my beliefs, because this pair is actually thick enough to conceal your booty and your panties without leaving you totally exposed, so i didn't feel it totally necessary to wear a tunic top. instead i paired it with this adorable tee to make it quite obvious that this baby is still loading! no, random man at the grocery store, i have not been overindulging on beer(true story), thank you for asking, there is a legitimate child growing in there! for added rocker appeal, i layered on my faux fur jacket that regardless of the heat, will most likely get plenty of play throughout the spring/summer months because i love it so much! and lots of black accessories for added edge. i know it's been all about the black and white lately, i promise i will try and add some color now that we've officially entered into spring.

baby blues

cheers ladies! the weekend is almost here!!!!!!

todays look is what I wore for Christmas Eve and I was slightly less pregnant at the time, but the velvet piping still does a pretty fab job of minimizing the bump. my black faux stud pumps paired perfectly and i pulled colors from the print when choosing my accessories. i love the contrast of black and pastels together, it gives such an icy effect and makes it feel more like winter than our weather would lead you to believe. this blue jacket has been my winter obsession!! shockingly, this is the first its made it on the blog, but if you follow my insta, you'd know its been on heavy rotation with the camel coat from Mondays post. extra bonus for ya'll, they are both currently on sale and perfect for transitioning into spring!! speaking of spring, are y'all not totally craving warmer days and brighter shades?? i am loving the color palette for spring and seriously cannot wait for baby to be here so this momma can work some fresh trends!!
