clean mama printables

clean mama is one of my newer sponsors. i only wish i was as organized as she is. have you checked out all her printables on etsy? if i had to choose one, i would probably pick the project kit. it keeps you organized and has tons of pretty colors! to do lists are always easier to use when they are pretty! although, i kinda like this calendar too. for those new mamas to be, check out this cute baby brain kit.

think garnish

i recently wrote about how much i love garnish’s cute wrappings! well, if you’ve been holding off on making a little something for your friends… now is the time to shop! i think i’m leaning towards getting these birch bark straws and maybe this too. i love that her shop not only has the items, but ideas on how to use them! so if your inspiration is lacking, it’s okay to borrow someone else’s! what a great idea to do an ice cream exchange! i’m totally in!

what i wore wednesday

January 23, 2013

welcome to wiww! i spent all day yesterday thinking it was thursday, which would make today friday. umm, that stunk! i was really looking forward to the week ending but now i still have 3 more days. so yeah, its been one of those weeks.

as moms, it can be really hard to find time, energy, or desire to get dressed every day. yoga pants are such an easy choice! but i have found that spending just ten minutes extra can make a huge change to my day! if i dress lazy, i feel lazy. if i dress cute, i feel cute. as silly as it is, dressing for the day really does make a difference!

try taking pictures of your outfits daily for a week, i dare you. even if you don’t post the pictures online, you will start dressing better just because you are documenting it. and if you get really brave, link up here. please take a look at all the ladies linking up. ok, not all because that would take FOR EVER. but please realize that the amazing women linking up are all shapes, sizes, colors, and ages. and its all awesome.

last week 372 people linked up!!! let’s try to make it 375 this week!

i forgot to take a full picture of this outfit, but stole this from my instagram pics. sean and i went on a date while my parents were in town.

cardi – forever 21

top – old navy

jeans – forever 21

necklace – groop dealz

black wedges (not pictured) – payless

ok, now i need your opinion. sean and i were on a date and went to ross, of course. isn’t that what everyone does on a date? ok, we had an hour wait for our table, so we went looking around. anyhoo, i found these shoes:

i can’t decide if i love them or they are just too much for me. sean says they look “aggressive”. not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing? what are your thoughts? and they were only $25, if that helps your decision ;)

do you wanna join me? yay! just follow the rules:

1. link to your specific blog post, not your blog’s main page. ex: http://thepleatedpoppy.com/2011/09/what-i-wore-wednesday-fall-inspiration/ not http://thepleatedpoppy.com/blog/.
2. please only link outfit related posts. your craft project may be adorable, or that may be a great giveaway, but this linky is for outfit related posts only – thank you!
3. please please please link back here to me so all this wiww stuff makes sense to your readers. and its just nice to do ;) grab a button from my sidebar (see the code box?).
4. check out as many links as possible! i am constantly inspired by so many outfits each week! and you will definitely find some new blogs that you’ve never stumbled upon before – so fun!
