Happy Friday my dolls. I apologize for my absence last week. I pretty much was behind one day the entire last week and I thought Friday was Thursday…..and I just missed the mark. I’m back though for you this week with a roundup of my favorites. I am slowly starting to get back into the groove of some self-care over here. I have been rocking the sweats and bun on top of my head for quite some time now. It’s so hard to get “dressed” to be spit up on or put on makeup when all I want to do is kiss all over the babe. My mom came up this week so I had some time to actually blow dry my hair and paint my nails. I’ll tell you what, changing a diaper with a fresh manicure just feels all kinds of weird and fancy at the same time. I am slowly seeing all the people who help keep me maintained….like getting a wax and possibly even my lashes put back on. I’m not a big fan of the expression of when people say after having a baby getting back to feeling like “me”. Your life completely changes and I think “me” evolves into something different. Like, wearing lipstick. I pretty much kiss all over Patrick every second I get and lipstick roadblocks me from that. I have gotten back into jeans though, that feels like a huge accomplishment. Like I’m really reentering the world when I’m not in stretch barre pants. This feels like a topic I could go on for some time and possibly even another post itself. Let’s get into some favorites from the week.
I just ordered these high waisted jean shorts for the upcoming warm months. They are perfect! They suck everything in, are not inappropritely short, and are a good price point. I am pairing it with this Rails crop top which I have a feeling I will be living in.
Get ready for the new cult classic tunic, I want it in every color. This lace dress sells out as fast as it is stocked every year. Get it while it lasts. It is the best dupe of the Self Portrait dress I’ve ever seen.
Sugarfix from Baublebar is currently on flash sale. I love this necklace and these earrings.
This bouncey chair, is pretty much the only way I can have breakfast and pump in the morning. Also on a flash sale from Target currently.
I can’t tell if these sandals are ugly or cute but man they look super comfy.
How yummy does this bowl recipe look?
When you finally realize you may have to drop a little money on Lightroom presets, at least these are affordable.
I never knew what dark circles under my eye looked like until I had a child. I just ordered this eye cream and I swear it really helps but I will warn you it has a strong smell.
My recent go to sunglasses are super affordable, a great shape, lightweight, and don’t break the bank.
I’m starting to sloooowly incorporate at home workouts. You know I love a good printable. This is a great lower body workout.
There are my favorites from the week! Link up and tell me yours as well as your plans for the weekend!
Cool ideas! Loving the sunglasses!

I am all about some bowl dishes, yum! Those sunglasses are really cute. I remember when I started being able to shower more often, and put on a real outfit. It really makes you feel like a whole new person, right? Hope you have a great weekend!
I’ve recently become a big fan of mid-rise and high-waisted pants/jeans. Love how they hold everything in! Such a cute outfit! Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis
That lace dress is gorgeous!!!! I also have that tunic in my shopping cart right now. :-) I also love your high-waisted shorts and that top. Speaking of jeans, YAY to wearing jeans again! You look great and I hope that you have a wonderful weekend!! :-)
I bought presents from Preset Base on black Friday and they come with lifetime updates… I’ve been really happy with them so far. It’s a little overwhelming how many it came from, I need to figure out which ones I use regularly and make a top folder with them so I can find them easily, LOL
Sunday Riley products always smell so weird. I did not like that lace dress on me and sent it back, but that is because my large boobs made me size up. I need those jean shorts! I am glad you are getting back into the land of the new normal. My friend had a baby yesterday and I am going to visit tomorrow, can’t wait for that new baby smell! Have a great weekend!
Super cute outfit. I once kissed my friend’s baby and it was so bad trying to take the lipstick off her face. It was sad and funny at the same time. Never made that mistake again. HA. Funny enough, the baby is now four and is obsessed with lipstick! She can’t leave the house without putting on her lipstick (it’s chapstick). haha
Love the top!!
