I have been out and away from Sebastian less than five times since he was born, partly because pumping is such a pain in the ass and partly just because he feels like an extension of me. This weekend though I left Bassie with his dad and headed out for lunch and shopping with my bestie Brittanie. We ate pho (Three bean drink! Also, next time I’m trying tripe!) then hit up Value Village and Nordstrom Rack. I picked up some cotton tank tops at The Rack and did surprisingly well at thrifting. I brought home a pair of Levis 518s – My favorite style from high school! – along with a yellow I Heart Ronson button-up. I also bought two skirts and a large blazer-style jacket because I am trying to expand my style. Before leaving the house, I spent the morning perusing and studying some fave style bloggers, drilling that inspiration into my brain. I really want to start wearing more skirts and dresses and taking my look past basics.

Oversize jacket & 2 skirts – I am really into florals right now and the print on the right is so my style. I’m not sure what tops I’m going to pair with these yet.

Didn’t wear the jacket today but this is what it looks like on. Donny thinks that I should cut out the shoulder pads – What do you think? The jeans are probably a size too big but they were only $5 – I rocked them today cuffed. I need to find a pair of jeans with the 518′s exact fit but a straight or skinny leg.

I also picked up a couple things for Sebastian – a little red sweatshirt (not pictured) and this flannel button-up (below). Perfect fit! Overall the trip was a success, although I wish I’d taken time to try on some dresses! Maybe next week.
