WIWW 7/20

Well, now that the word is out, I can explain my lack of blogging, particularly ‘What I Wore Wednesday”. I haven’t been taking pictures of my outfits for 2 reasons. (1) All of my clothes are already maternity (mostly), and we were not announcing the pregnancy yet, so I didn’t want to post about it! (2) I have slipped into Mommy-mode clothes more often than not because yoga pants and sweats have elastic waists and all of my ‘cute’ pre-pregnancy clothes no longer fit. I’ve definitely been wearing old t-shirts with comfy pants more days than not. And, I’m certainly not ashamed of it, but haven’t taken pictures. : ) I’ll start doing ‘What I Wore Wednesday, The Maternity Months’ soon, hopefully by next week.

I want to take a minute to send you to the blog of one of my favorite people and best friends in the whole world: That Kind of Mom She is an amazing person, wonderful mom and I just love her! Her blog is so awesome and today’s post is no exception. She is very brave and honest in today’s post and I just love her for all that she does. We’ve known each other since we were 8!!!

Just for fun, here’s a special outfit for WIWW. Last Thursday was (I hope you all know!) the premiere of the final Harry Potter movie. As for every other, I went to the midnight showing, in costume of course!! I didn’t take a picture that night, but here is a pic of me last Halloween (along with my beautiful family) in the same outfit. I am so sad that the movies are done being released, because all of my friends know that I am one of those crazy fans!!! I made most of my outfit myself, back in college, for the premiere of the 3rd movie. I embroidered the Gryffindor colors on the vest and sewed on the patch to my robes myself. (Nelson's costume is from Goodwill, Kalaya's from Babies R Us)

Gryffindor Scarf and patch: Ebay

Vest, graduation robe: Goodwill

Black Skirt: Buffalo Exchange

White shirt, red tie: no idea, borrowed from my husband

Black Knee socks (yup!): Ross

Black Flats: Payless Shoe Source
