How about we take a little break from glitter for one on my favorite things to wear this winter, oversized sweaters…super cozy, figure forgiving & completely mommy friendly. Wear them with skinny or straight leg jeans to balance out the extra fabric on the top.
The one I’m wearing is from the sale rack at Anthropologie, I don’t see it online but you might be able to find it in stores still. Here are a few others I love…
(by the way, my dear husband just looked over my shoulder & said that the pics I took of myself with photo booth look like they’re for a trampy online dating ad. To which I said, “Thhhbbbbttt!” Are they that bad?! I was enjoying my little livingroom photoshoot!)
Merona Chenille, Target, $20
“Open Weave Sweater“, Old Navy, $34.50
Tomorrow we’ll get back to the glitter with #3 in my “30 for $30” series, it’s a sweet snowflake tutu. I only regret that it doesn’t come in my size.
NO WAY, P doesn't know what he is talking about you look like a SUPER HOT MAMA! BTW I call these cape sweaters (every time I where them I try to spread my arms and fly :), I love these sweaters.
The pics aren't the greatest quality, but who cares?! I think you look beautiful! 🙂 You should totally do a mommy photoshoot!
Your outfits are really cute, but most mothers don't have that kind of cash to spend per outfit. I would love to see more affordable outfits. Once you have more kids, it's not easy to spend that much on clothes.
Sorry Anonymous, that's what I had in mind when I put the Target & Old Navy options but next time I'll try & find more for ya. Also don't think of stuff as per outfit, you can buy one or two new sweaters & make then work as your only new additions for the season. I just like to give moms some ideas here & there to make you feel cute & not lost in sweatpants mommyland.
I've been reading your blog for awhile now. I love the sweater idea I do most of my shopping at Winners and I saw a sweater exactly like the one you were wearing, but I didn't know how I would wear it, thanks for the post. I think the hardest thing for me to find are the plain stretchy shirts that you wear underneath for layering.
Natasha, I think that you look great! P should be counting his blessings. 🙂
I wanted to tell you also, that I browse (too much) through Victoria's Secret online catalog for some very cute sweaters. I buy a lot of them after season, when they are marked down to unbelievable prices!
I just wanted to say I love your blog!
Haha a! My husband always laughs at my personal photo shoots forth blog! Just found this post and I was excited because I just found the most gorgeous oversized NEW fashion bug sweater at goodwill for $1.75! What, what! Rock on in your trampy online dating photos!
