The Autumn Girl

MATERNITY

Blue Floral Maxi

08.24.2017

Do you ever feel like you sometimes just need a little break and some time off? I’ve been feeling that way a lot lately, but mostly from blogging. Lately a total lack of inspiration. And I’m tired of buying maternity clothes. I’ve actually gotten away with not buying all that much and just wearing a lot of things over and over again. To be honest, my social life has dwindled a bit and I spend a majority of my time with Eric and the dogs and Netflix and I love it. So the idea of purchasing new clothes when I’m not really doing much seems a bit silly. AND I have only five weeks ish left to go of pregnancy! But watch me get inspired tomorrow and go on a shopping spree because I see a dress I just have to have. That’s pregnancy hormones for you. I’ve been feeling bipolar with my emotions.

What I love about this blue floral dress is that it’s not actually a maternity dress. When I can find things that fit normal women and still rock them with a bump, I am elated. The best part is I can wear this after the baby and have it as a fun flirty piece for years to come. I’ve been on a maxi roll lately and I’m really proud of myself because for forever, I’ve felt like they looked bad on me. I’m not curvy at all which sometimes makes me feel boxy. But this beautiful dress cuts at the right angles to make me feel feminine and pretty. I have a dress that’s almost exactly the same in white (remember this post?!) but I had to get it in baby blue in honor of our impending arrival.

What’s your remedy for a lack of inspiration? I’ve been doing my best to read some of my favorite blogs (they make me happy with a cup of coffee in the morning and always get me inspired!

That’s all for me. I’ve got to get these doggies out before some heavy rainfall. It’s going to be a rainy weekend in Austin and I don’t mind it. Pumpkin spice candle is lit and I’ve got some serious crafting I plan on doing. With Adele pandora of course. Have a great one! XO

    I completely agree that a break, even from something you love, is often needed. I am currently in an off and on hiatus from blogging, just doing less. I feel that slowing down and spending more time outside as well as reading my favorite books helps me get back into the creative mood! Love your blog by the way! http://www.chasingbelle.com

      Thanks so much for checking it out my dear! I just looked at your blog and it looks super adventurous and fun :) Getting off social media and out and about is such a refreshing thing! I love finding new inspiration just by getting out of my head.
