Pixie

I just fell in love with the Pixie pant at Old Navy.  I'm not really happy with my body lately because of pregnancy and these pants are one of the few things that have made me feel good about myself in my wardrobe.  I think it's because they are stretchy.  And they look expensive.  They're on sale right on.  Totally check them out.  I snagged a hot pink pair and a black/white plaid pair.

Cheers!

The Perfect (Layering) Tank

I think every girl has a "uniform".  Mine has changed over the years.  In college it was my Michigan State hoodie, jeans and Uggs.  Now, it is some version of this (minus the scarf usually):

                                                        

I stick to the rule that leggings aren't pants.  So, if you are going to wear just leggings as your bottoms, then you need to have your butt and crotch covered.  To follow my own rule, I needed an extra long tank.  Old Navy sold them way back in the day and I have just one.  I needed more.  Imagine the layering possibilities?!  I ended up finding the perfect layering tank in the most surprising place: the maternity section!  Liz Lange for Target has the best tanks to pull of my uniform and other layering needs.  The tank is soft, long enough to cover my butt and it isn't ruched on the sides like most maternity tops.  You can't even tell it's for preggos!  And they're super cheap so you can stock up on all the colors.

You're welcome.

Cheers.

Thrifty Tip #12 - Baby Clothes

I'm a big fan of thrift stores.  While I don't get everything there, I have scored some amazing deals on clothes, furniture and decor.  It only seemed natural to look for baby things there too.  I know that babies have a high turn over with clothing.  It's pretty much wear once, maybe twice, then done.  So, Goodwill is a great place to look for lightly used, sometimes new, clothes.  Our Goodwill sells infant clothes for $0.99 a piece.  Pretty good.  When we were in the store going through the clothes, one of the ladies that worked there told me that they have a baby sale once a week where it's 3 for a dollar!  Its not really advertised so you have to call and see if they are doing it that day.  It won't be on senior discount.  So, all new parents, hit your local Goodwill to score a new wardrobe for the minis!

Cheers!
