Polyvore

My contractions are all over the place! Crazy hard and strong for about 90 minutes, then nothing. I didn't sleep much last night. But, I took advantage today. And I took a really long nap! I can tell, we're getting close. :)

But while I've been wasting some time here, just trying to get Baby C ready, I found Polyvore. And I signed up. Here's my page. Yes, I played for a few hours. So much fun! I wish I would have signed up a long time ago!

This could be a really fun thing to play with. You know, when I start losing weight. I'm not good at putting outfits together. But I think this could help. If not, it's just fun to play around. It's like paper dolls for grown ups! XOXO

Dreaming About Booties

All night last night, I dreamt about booties. And not the kind that you would expect. But these booties. For me to wear.

A few weeks ago, my bestie had on a pair. And I loved them! She looked really cute. And well, they look a lot easier to walk in than heels. I'm still not too good at walking in heels.

Then Trina tweeted about them, and I really wanted a pair. Um, ya. I'm way beyond preggers. And for my sake and my daughter's, I have refrained from buying a pair. But they are definitely going on my list. I'm buying them after my baby girl is born. Which pair? I don't know yet. I'm still searching online. :) XOXO

Pretty Necklaces

At 3:42 of this video...I LOVE the necklaces! They are just so pretty. And dainty. I don't have anything like these. And I really want one now. I just wish I could afford one. Well, maybe I can find one somewhere. Something that looks similar, but that is much more in my budget. Anyone seen anything like this? XOXO

So Stylish!

I wish I was more stylish like Trina. She is just so stylish! And is always so well put together. I especially like the way she dresses for work. Because it's professional, but still funky. Me? I'm not so good at these things. Add in pregnancy, and well I'm not too motivated to be stylish. I wear black dress pants almost every day. I can't lie. I have about 10 pair that are all exactly the same...

But Trina just inspired me. I'm going to try and put some more time and effort into my outfits. Because Trina really does always look nice. I really like all of her jewelry too! Look at this video! But I guess this means, I'm going to have to go shopping. Hmmm XOXO

Style Watch

This magazine has been sitting at the bottom of my bag. The bag I bring with me when we travel. I finally dug it out. And this is the best magazine! I really like buying it. And I usually read through it right away. I'm not sure why I haven't done it yet. But I did this morning.

While T is working, I decided to catch up on my reading. :) There are so many cute ideas that I got. And now, more than ever, I'm ready to go shopping for a bikini. Well, I still need to tone and eat right. But I'm ready. I also marked some other pictures. I'll be looking for similar items the next time I go shopping. XOXO

Dangly Earrings

I'm going to try and take a style nod from my bestie. She is always wearing long and dangly earrings. They look so fun! And to be 100% honest, I know that she buys most of them from Claire's and Forever 21. That's just how she rolls!

But she always looks cute in her earrings. They're fun and usually colorful. Or she wears them for her job as a mariachi. Those ones are usually silver or gold. And a lot more heavy than the ones she wears everyday.

The other day, I tried on a pair of her earrings. And with my short hair, I think they looked nice on me. Now, I need to go shopping. Just to buy a few pairs. Not hoops. Definitely not hoops! Because those look funny. But I'm thinking a few pairs of dangly, beaded earrings would be nice for the summer. :) XOXO

Scarves

We're still here in NYC. And it's pretty cold. My bestie has been sporting some of the cutest scarves ever! And she always manages to tie them so nice. I'm not good at that stuff. Not at all! But she is. And looks so put together.

Maybe I should start with buying a scarf. I should have thought about that a few days ago. Then I need to learn how to wear them. Because I swear, every day, my bestie has had a scarf on. And every day, she wears them different.

And who doesn't want to be warm and toasty? I know I want to be! That's on the top of the list for me today, a new scarf. And a lesson from my bestie. Now I just need to get out of bed and get ready... XOXO

Bathing Suits

So I have no were near a "perfect" body. No, that's not me. I've got some nice "child bearing hips." I got that from my mom. And some slightly large breasts. The kind that need a little support. I also wear between a size 9 and 11. Just depending on the pants.

T doesn't seem to mind. It's funny. He doesn't even realize that I'm slightly bigger...OK bigger...than most of the women that travel in this group. I'm very aware of it. Maybe because my bestie is like a size -10. But she works out a lot. And performs. Her work somewhat depends on her body. Because she is a singer and dancer. I get it.

But it doesn't help that all these other women look like models. Or that we went to the beach yesterday. Just us ladies. And they all looked amazing in their bikinis. I sported a 1 piece. So did my bestie. But she totally looked better than I did.

I was feeling slightly down this morning, so I decided to look for a new bathing suit online. Something more girly. And I found this one. But I'm just not sure about it. I'm worried that my legs will look HUGE! And I won't have enough upper body support.

It's just weird. Most woman in the US are bigger than me. Or at least my size. And I feel so uncomfortable in my body. Why? I never felt like this before. But then again, I didn't travel in a group were most of the men are married to actual models. XOXO

Why?

Do you see those? They're high heels. OK, technically, these are candy ones. But they're still high heels...

I can't walk in heels for my life! I try. But I'm just too clumsy. What's my deal? I swear that I'm a woman. But I just am not good at the girly things like doing my hair and makeup. And walking in heels.

It kinda makes me mad. But what can you do? I just try to deal. At the house, well I practice. Only when T is gone. Because He might think I'm nuts. Eventually, I'm going to master them. Like my bestie. She can live in high heels. Running in them and everything. If only I could figure it out! XOXO
