7 Days of Dresses

I know I took the weekend off (oh, it wasn't a long weekend?) but I didn't quit with my 7 days of dresses challenge. I actually really enjoyed it, and it made me realize how many dresses I have. I tried to push myself with this challenge and wear my clothes in ways I haven't don't before. Some days it was hard getting ready enough to take a picture of myself, especially the days Logan had a fever last week.

I feel like my style has really evolved in the past year. I wouldn't exactly say I'm stylish, but I'm getting to know my closet a lot better and I'm having fun with my clothes. I love going on Pinterest and seeing outfits that inspire me and mentally going through my wardrobe to see if I can recreate it. I was reading a post at Freckles in April once and she described perfectly what I feel about fashion blogging. To paraphrase; there are bloggers who inspire, and bloggers who are inspired. I am in the inspired category and it's a super fun category to be in.

This outfit is perfect for days when I just want to wear pants. Every time I wear a maxi skirt I just think of this e-card. I wore this last week when Logan was feverish and very clingy and emotional. It was a rough day for him and I needed all the comfort I could get.

I was a little hesitant with this outfit. What do you think? Win or lose? I really like all the colors, and I might be brave enough to wear this sometime outside of my house. I'll have to sleep on this one.

I really got a lot of wear out of my maternity maxi dresses this week. This dress was another maternity dress, but I love it. Belting it helps to pull in the extra material that allows for an expanding pregnant waistline.

Dress: Motherhood Maternity // Belt: Husbands // Shoes: Jessica Simpson (similar)

And last, but not least, my favorite outfit of the week. My sister gave me these booties and I have been dying for a chance to wear them all summer. It still was a bit hot on Sunday, but I couldn't wait a second longer. I love the brown and black all mixed together in this outfit.
