Ilana Kohn Caroline pants (last year’s color) | XL Esby sweatshirt ( very old, purchased via slowre, sigh) | XS Vans sneakers Rachel Comey Barrie jumpsuit | size 10 Suicoke Cel-VPO sandals | Size 7 (I am a size 8) Wow look at all that blue lol.  I have been rather drawn to bright blue the last year or so; some of my favorite items are blue – like these IK pants, the RC jumper, my Ace & Jig duster in Atlantis. It’s one week until I leave with Hawk to go back to Atlanta (Leo is staying here with the dog for another week until the movers come) and even though I’m basically finished wit ..read more

High Rise Pocket Bike Shorts | large (I probably need an XL in these) Paloma bra | large (a little tighter than I’d like) Birkenstock Arizona Chunky Platform sandals | sold out in white – link goes to Black Knees. Whoa.  I told you I’m basically at the IDGAF stage of dressing myself again, but I’d be lying if I didn’t feel weird posting a picture of my knees.  Midriff, no problem…knees, not so sure LOL. I ordered these shorts from Girlfriend which kicked me up a level in their rewards program and “earned” me a free bra so I chose the Paloma.  I don’t love it; I think I need to ..read more

Raquel Allegra jumpsuit | Size 2 (purchased when I was pregnant – no longer available) Babaa sweater Vans sneakers (gift from my dad) We’re moving back to Georgia in early May; the countdown has begun.  I’ve honestly been packing and donating for a while now, and don’t really “feel” like I will have a problem finishing in time without too much stress, but I’ll probably still have some anxiety at the end, especially when I start packing up the kitchen.  Ugh. Wardrobe wise, I feel pretty good where I am now.  I have saved a few things that are too small for my body now, but they ..read more

Rachel Comey Fond sweatshirt | m/l Everlane way high jeans | 32 Birkenstock Exquisite Platform Arizona sandals  Hawk and I were playing yesterday and talking about body parts.  We got to his belly button and I told him that’s where he was attached to me when he was inside my body.  He looked at me for a second as if he understood (he didn’t…) and I nearly lost it. It’s no secret I’ve been hard on myself about postpartum weight gain and how much my body has changed, but now that I am feeling much better and moving more I can say that I have fully embraced my body as it is now ..read more

Ace & Jig Milo overalls (finally hemmed) | Large Organic by John Patrick tee (very very old) | Medium Melissa plastic sandals (from last year, but Shopbop has cute new ones with up to 25% off now) Lauren Manoogian cotton/linen dress (bought when I was pregnant) Birkenstock birko-flor platforms In my mom’s very nicely maintained yard I’m wearing my Girlfriend For Everyone hoodie and pocket leggings Hello – thank you so much for checking in; it’s been too long and I miss you! I have a lot of updates: We went to Atlanta (Marietta exactly) to close on our new house on 3/22 and just got bac ..read more

Girlfriend Collective Everyone Hoodie | size 5 Leset pointelle pants | large Melissa sandals | maybe a year old? no longer available Rachel Comey Barrie jumpsuit | size 10 Misha & Puff cardigan | m/l Birkenstock birko-flor sandals | old, here’s Ochre on sale Some recent outfits.  Also realizing the hoodie and cardigan are similar colors.  And i don’t love either one LOL. I do love them both, the style, fit, etc., just not the colors.  There’s just something “off” about each of them, in a different way? I don’t know how to explain it.  It doesn’t stop me from wearing e ..read more

Ilana Kohn Pogi Pants | Large Smartwool layering tee | medium, a few years old – this is INDISPENSABLE Dansko LT Pro Clogs | IMO these fit my feet better than the professional OR the XP 2.0, they seem to be a teeny bit wider.  So glad to be back in white dansko clogs What a mess…And not just the house LOL. I am in a funk.  Given everything we (collective we) and I, personally, am dealing with, it seems about right.  I’m okay, just not motivated, or excited about anything.  And when I get this way, I retreat inside myself; I just don’t want to talk.  Tell me I’m not t ..read more

Hawk in the snow… Ilana Kohn Tuck Coveralls (medium – they don’t really fit LOL) Dansko LT-pro clogs Wow. What a week we had last week.  Without being too dramatic, it was mildly traumatizing. I don’t think I felt that when we were “in it” but afterwards I wanted to sleep all the time, I felt worn out, and completely unmotivated.  A week later, I feel much better finally. And I know we didn’t have it as bad as some.  What happened here in Texas last week was inexcusable (I know other parts of the country was also affected by the winter storm, but didn’t suffer the power outage ..read more

We bought a house!! Well, not exactly yet, we’re under contract and the inspection is today. Barring anything major, we would close in March.  WHOA. Oh, and it’s in the Atlanta-area.  So, yeah, bye Texas.  I can’t believe we’ve been here ten years. I’m excited and scared at the same time.  The house needs some aesthetic work and we’re hoping to get that done before we move, but it is well within (below) our budget so we will be able to do quite a bit up front.  And what we can’t do now, we can do over time.  I’m not worried about it too much. It’s on a beautifull ..read more

323 Maryam pant in deadstock denim | s/m (sold out – here’s a black pair) Entireworld organic cotton t-shirt | small (gift from the brand a couple years ago) Nadaam cashmere cardigan | large (a couple years old) Birkenstock Boston clogs I started writing this post yesterday, and thank goodness because I don’t know what I have in me right now.  Hawk is down for his nap, but before he went down, he pitched a fit on the changing table about getting his diaper changed.  He does this now EVERY TIME, and it wears me out.   I let him thrash and wear himself out as much as I can ..read more
