White Picket Fence

White Picket Fence

littlemeLet’s go back quite a few years to my childhood home. I pushed two baby dolls in my little brother’s stroller while wearing my mother’s high heels up and down our hardwood floors. Those two babies went everywhere with me. They went to the park, watched cartoons with me and I even insisted on having a place for them at the kitchen table. I dreamed of a husband, twins and a family dog. Sounds “white picket fence” perfect, right?

Now I’m all grown up with a husband, a dog and a beautiful baby boy. I didn’t get those twins I was hoping for as a little girl, but as a mother of a 7 week old child, I can’t imagine having two! I tip my hat to the parents of multiples. How do you do it? Double late night feedings, two poopy diapers at once and twice as many outfit changes. I’m not the only one who recognizes the challenges of multiples; the fine people at Little Me want to help out.

Little Me knows that, expecting a multiple birth is a wonderful and stressful time in your life. The Little Me Multiple Birth Program is a way they’d like to help you keep your attention on the double (triple, quadruple or more) sweet giggles & coos soon on their way. Little Me is offering you a “Welcome to the World” gift after your children’s births. To receive your free gift, all you have to do is register. Easy, right? They know that you’ve already got enough on your plates so they want you to receive your gift as easily as possible!

Red Carpet Inspiration for Iron Man 3 ~ #IronMan3Event

I received the trailer as a blogger for Walt Disney Publications. I was not financially compensated for this post and all opinions are my own.

Later this month I know some fellow bloggers are headed to the Iron Man 3 World Premiere in Los Angeles. One of the best parts? They will be there when the red carpet rolls out!

So I figured why not add a little Iron Man flair to your red carpet outfit? Browsing through fashion, here is an inspiration board of how you can be your own “Iron Woman.” Who knows… Robert Downey Jr. may even be a little jealous of your oh-so-fabulous-Iron look!

Don’t forget to connect with Iron Man 3 on Facebook and Twitter! This film will hit theaters nationwide on May 3, 2013. Be on the lookout for hashtags #IronMan3 for all things Iron Man related, and #IronMan3Event for all things related to the Iron Man 3 World Premiere!

Marvel’s “Iron Man 3” pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy’s hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?

My St. Patrick’s Day Outfit Inspiration ~ #Fashion

The downtown area of my city always has a fun St. Patrick’s Day celebration! Lately, I’ve been thinking about what I should wear. I know since there will be a lot of walking, I want to be comfortable! I know I want to wear my dark skinny jeans from Gap, and my green ballet flats from H&M (since they are my only green shoes). I do have a green cardigan from Old Navy. So I decided to why not put together a little inspiration board? I’ll head to the mall tomorrow and see if I can find the items I don’t already own. I just have 2 days to complete my St. Patrick’s Day outfit!

‘Welcome Spring!’ Looks for 2013 ~ #SpringFashion

Just 9 more days till the first day of Spring! I’m ready to put together some Spring looks! This past weekend we had gorgeous weather in the 50s/60s, and it totally put me in the mood for one of my favorite seasons. This inspired me to head into my closet and start pulling out my favorite Spring looks and staples. After looking to see what colors were hot for Spring this year, I decided why not update some of the pieces I already with a Spring 2013 twist?

It wasn’t too long ago I picked up this adorable dress from Macy’s. I found it fun and flirty, but the color seemed more winter appropriate. I often paired it with black accessories, but decided to get a feel of how it would look if I wore it in the Spring with turquoise, mint, and emerald hues! I saw these colors heavily used in Kate Spade’s Spring 2013 line. Plus the other day I walked by a display window in the mall for EXPRESS and again saw lots of mints and emeralds! These colors are definitely a hot trend right now, and absolutely perfect for Spring.

Picks for Spring Looks

Dress: bar lll Dress, Macys, $79
Cardigan: Essentials by Full Tilt (Mint), Tilly’s, $19.99
Shoes: Bow-Front Cutout Ballet Flat (Mint), Charlotte Russe, $19.50
Handbag: Jessica Simpson Trish Hobo (Mint), Zappos, $88.00
Earrings: Pave Bubble Earrings (Bright Jadeite), Ann Taylor, $28
Necklace: Layered Stone Statement (Jade), Charlotte Russe, $12.99

I can’t wait to try to put everything together! I might not wear all the accessories at the same time. However, I love the pop of color it gives my grey dress. Let’s hope it works out!

What do you predict will be the hot colors this Spring?

#CookiesKidsWith Winter coming to a close and Spring just around the corner, I decided to go through and re-organize my son’s wardrobe.
