I did a Pregnancy Q+A on Instagram recently and a popular question that came up was where to shop for maternity clothes. But honestly, there's very few maternity brands that I like. With the exception of pants, I try to stick with stretchy or flowy non-maternity pieces that will accommodate the bump. I typically have good luck at Amazon and prefer to not spend a ton on tops or dresses that I'm not going to wear past the pregnancy. ...
Alright ladies, let's talk bags. Y'all know I'm a sucker for bags and while I do tend to invest in designer and high-quality bags most of the time, I can't pass up a good budget-friendly bag if I want to try out a trend. I definitely keep my designer/investment bags more classic (see my most recent designer purchase here) but when it comes to trends, I'll look for quality options at a lower price. Which is where this blog post comes in!
To be honest, you have to dig to find decent bags at this price point but I found 10 that I'm pretty impressed with. From the quilted and padded trend happening on accessories right now to an effortless backpack to a more refined hobo bag, I'm really excited to share these options with you!
Let me know if you have any favorites from this list.

How is it that January seemed to last three years but I blinked and Febraury was gone? Not complaining too much though because that means we're one month closer to meeting baby Robertson No. 2! Of course I'm kicking off the month with February's top 10, which is dominated by style picks and just a few home items. Remember that you can shop everything I’m posting right here at all times. ...
Alright soooo my candle collection is a little out of hand at this point but when I find a good one, I can't help but to buy one (...or two). Can you blame me? I feel like a lot of women are like this, right? I light a candle at least once a day, usually one in my office while I work and another in the living room or my bathroom in the evening, and love how they can set the mood - let alone let off a nice fragrance. So in my mind, you can just never have enough. ...
I know, I know, I don't usually write about color but I will say I'm being drawn to more lately. First it was this pink sweatsuit and now this baby blue cardigan, and I'm not mad at it. I'm not promising to overhaul my entire neutral wardrobe but I do think it's fun to throw in a few colors if they work for you. ...
It's no secret that I take my loungewear seriously; it's what you can find me in most days of the week if I'm at home or running errands. But now that loungewear is a *thing*, there's so much of it out there, it's hard to know what's good and what's just eh. And believe me, I get not wanting to spend too much money on joggers and lounge sets. ...
This has been a highly requested topic and I'm excited to breakdown the best maternity leggings I've come across with you today! To be honest, I live in leggings while pregnant - especially this time around when I don't leave the house too much. When I do want to switch it up, I go with maternity jeans which I covered here...but I'm a leggings girl. Whether you're looking for a supportive pair as you're further along with the bump or something buttery soft to wear around the house, I'm covering my favorite four picks here for you. ...
If you know me, you know I'm an accessories girl. From jewelry to my love for bags to hair accessories, I truly believe they're what make an outfit feel special. And since I've already covered my jewelry stack and my current sunglasses, today I thought I'd go into hair accessories. Y'all always seem to notice when I've got a new hand band or scrunchie so I don't think I'm alone in my love for a good hair accessory. And let's just say that since having George and becoming a lot busier, I rely on hair accessories a lot to mask dirty hair or to elevate jeans and a tee. ...
As I mentioned in this post with Gift Ideas for Valentine's Day, Austin and I usually keep things pretty casual. I think we did the whole Vday dinner out a couple times and realized that with the upcharges for dinner, long waits, and all that, we preferred to stay in. And now that we have George and baby on the way, it feels even more special to stay in and celebrate love at home.
If you're staying in this year, here are some fun ideas that I've come up with to celebrate. Austin and I have actually done a few of these before and I'm thinking we'll go with a cheese board, chocolate tasting and a cute movie with George this year. ...
