Hi Friends!!
Long time no blog! I feel really bad for everyone who's dropped in here and found zilch, absolutely zilch. My apologies run deep, especially to the sweet readers who've actually emailed me to see if I was still alive (to whom I am very thankful).
Ocean is already 3 months old, can ya believe it? Yeah, neither can I. And I have to say he is a complete and utter joy. Our families were here and then we had some more visitors and then we took a completely last minute trip back to San Diego to see family and friends. So we are finally starting to settle back into life here in Hawaii and getting our groove going as a family of five.
I think the fall season is everyone's fav and I am really feeling the street-versus-fancy thing, {if that is even a thing}. Even though I have similar items sitting in my closet at the moment, I live in Hawaii where it's 80 degrees and humid all year long, so the chances of me being able to wear this is very slim. Thus, imaginary outfit blog posting it is.

Now having been away from blogging for so long, I felt a little nervous on where to begin. I have a boat load of photos of Ocean and the boys, a ton of post-partum care and breastfeeding stuff... all things I would really want to share at some point. But with all the catching up I had to do, I just got a little stuck on where to even begin. So, I started with what felt like me, where this blog started in the first place, something that comes very easily to me, and that my friends, is putting together an imaginary outfit.I think the fall season is everyone's fav and I am really feeling the street-versus-fancy thing, {if that is even a thing}.

I have to say that being a new mom is incredibly challenging {it really is}. You take care of the baby, the home, your relationships, do the laundry, cook, you're up all night and the list goes on and on. The simple task of getting dressed can be pretty daunting. And I believe that just becoming a mom doesn't mean you have to sacrifice your style in any way. I want to help make it easy and most importantly, for you to feel confident as a strong, stylish, breastfeeding mom. You need easy pieces that you can turn to when in doubt {and in my case, wear them over and over}. One of those simple pieces you need in your closet is a chambray/denim button up top (so if you don't have one, get one). They are cute, easy to wear and completely Milk-Friendly. There are a ton of price ranges and styles to chose from, so if you see one and it fits, buy it. I especially like the snap button kind because it is truly liberating {and easy} to be able to rip it open to feed the baby. Be careful not to get used to it though, I recently broke off a few buttons of a top because I was so used to just breaking free to feed.
