Hey loves!

Vacations are vital to recharge, reconnect and just take a good break from the same ole, same ole! I was so happy that we planned a family vacation to San Francisco before baby comes. I was tired of looking at the same Dallas every day, doing the same thing and going the same places. It was high time to experience a change of scenery!

 

Our brother in law and his girlfriend have lived in San Francisco for about four years now. We’ve visited the city about two years ago and had a great time exploring. So when my brother in law called and said he was going to pop the question and wanted the family to be there, of course we said yes!!  San Francisco, here we come!

 

It can be a bit stressful planning a family vacation. Ticket prices, accommodations and how to get around are always the starting point. I was extremely happy to partner with Mazda on this trip and be offered the opportunity to drive the Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring during our time in the city! I knew we needed a vehicle that would allow us space and the ability to be comfortable. After all, we are traveling with a 3 year old and a pregnant lady who needs to be able to sit back and relax at the drop of a dime. The Mazda CX-5 is a crossover vehicle so there was just enough space to do just that. But, if you have a very large family, this vehicle is not for you. Especially if you have more than one car seat, it will be a bit tight in my opinion!

 

So lets get started on my travel diaries shall we? I also posted videos of my trip on my Instagram sharing the highlights of each day. So be sure to head to my Instagram and click on the “Travel” highlight icon to see everything in action!

 

Travel Diary Day 1:

We arrived in San Francisco at around 10:30 am that morning after a 3 hour flight. This flight was also my first experience of having to take Camille to the bathroom on an airplane. Not fun folks!! Squeezing me and her in that little closet with this belly was the worst ever lol. Anyway, after we landed we picked up our Mazda and immediately headed to brunch. We were so hungry! We ate at Rusty’s Southern Restaurant and the food was pretty good. Not amazing, but good ya know?!

 

After which, we headed to the Golden Gate bridge! This is where my brother in law wanted to propose! We were in charge of scouting the perfect location for him to pop the question. That took about 2 hours because of traffic and a lot of the roads to get to the Golden Gate were closed. But, we finally found the spot for everyone to meet and he popped the question. Oh and she said yes!  If you want to see the proposal, head to my Instagram to check  my “Travel” Highlights!

Travel Diary Day 2:

Sunday morning we headed to Sausalito for brunch and to check out the area. I always heard that Sausalito has gorgeous views and is the cutest little boat town. We ate at Bayside Cafe and it was delish! They also serve fresh pressed juices (I ordered the carrot & apple- so good), coffees and shakes too. My blueberry pancake were huge and I couldn’t finish it even though I tried. I thought it was so cute that they served Mickey Mouse pancakes for the kids too! Eric thought it was a bunny lol!

 

After we ate, we walked around and checked out the house boats. There were so many to see! The owners really take great care of the decks with flowers and unique art work. It was to be appreciated! I really wished we could see the inside of one of the houseboats. I would love to stay overnight just for the experience!

 

Next up was the Marin Headlands. I wanted to take Camille to the Marine Mammal Center. I didn’t take any pictures here, but you can see a snippet of our experience on my “Travel” highlights on Instagram. The Marine Mammal Center in the Marin Headlands is a rescue center for seal and sea lions. We learned a lot about how the center rescue the animals, how they treat them and saw a few of the sea lions too! It was funny to see the sea lions escape some of the care takers who were trying to give them their medicine.

Let’s chat about the Mazda shall we?

Oh, I can’t let the blog post go on without sharing a little bit about the Mazda CX-5! Again, this is a crossover vehicle that seats 5. I wouldn’t recommend it for large families, especially those of you with multiple car seats, you would need a SUV for that purpose. If you are traveling with a car seat, this vehicle does offer the LATCH system which made it very quick and easy to secure Camille’s car seat. The car seat LATCH system is great for peace of mind that your child car seat is safe and tightly secured while you’re hitting the road. This checks off my safety concerns as a parent for sure!

 

But, lets talk about how gorgeous the metallic red paint is? It reminded me of red candy apples! The 2018 CX-5 offers metallic finishes and other paint options as well. I’d personally would go for this red, its beautiful! This vehicle pretty much has everything you need. It offers Navigation, rear view camera, great sound system and the power rear lift gate system. Also, The Mazda Connect System is easily accessible and visible so that you can keep your eyes on the road. It allows you to easily access your navigation, music and radio functions. Unfortunately it does not have Apple car play feature!! Which, as an iPhone user, is a necessary feature for me in my car to have access to my music and google maps features. Otherwise, this vehicle suited our needs for our daily travels.

Time to head off to our next stop… but not until Camille gets in her car seat of course!

After we completed the tour of the Mammal Center, our next stop was the Point Bonita Lighthouse. The Point Bonita Lighthouse is still an active lighthouse and is at the Southwest tip of the Marin Headlands. There is a .5 walk that is pretty steep before you can access the lighthouse, so be sure to be prepared with comfortable shoes before you go! Unfortunately, once we got to the trail, there was a sign up stating the lighthouse was closed for the day. So we just walked the trail towards the lighthouse and walked back. Let me tell you, my thighs and legs were burning!!! Those inclines were no joke. I definitely got my work out on. But, it was worth it to see the views and the waves crashing against the shore!

Travel Diary Day 3: The Painted Ladies, Lombard Street and Ghirardelli Square

We started the day off with brunch at Brenda’s French Soul Food. Food was very good and the beignets are huge! I would share more about the food and ambiance of the restaurant, but one of the servers were quite rude. It ruined the experience for me so thats all I have to say about that. Lol.

 

Anyway, after brunch we headed to see The Painted Ladies. You guys know what The Painted Ladies are right? The houses in the opening scene of “Full House!” These houses are known for their feature on the show and of course, the gorgeous Victorian architecture. They are a tourist attraction so you will also see people stopping by to take pictures. We didn’t get to see The Painted Ladies when we visited San Fran two years ago, so it was on my list of Things to Do. I was glad we stopped to check these ladies out!

 

What made it really enjoyable is that its across the street from Alamo Square, which is a beautiful park and picnic area. We let Camille enjoy herself at the playground for a while which made her a happy camper. Be sure to check out my Travel Diary video on the Travel Highlights section on my Instagram to see more!  The views from The Painted Ladies are beautiful and worth the stop to enjoy and take in the city. I would suggest even packing a picnic to eat on the hill and enjoy the sights while you’re there as well!

 

After the park, we headed to Lombard Street, also known as, The Crookedest Street in the World.” I’m not gonna lie, we were all a little nervous because the street to even get to Lombard Street had a VERY high incline. But, after we went down the hill, it wasn’t so bad. It really is a crooked street and is filled with people walking the street or at the bottom of the hill taking pictures. It was a fun, quick stop to check off my things to do list without even getting out of the car. So I do recommend experiencing it at least once.

 

Our last tourist stop was at Ghirardelli Square. Friends, you must go so you can stop by the original Ghirardelli Ice Cream shop! I had a Ghirardelli Salted Caramel Sundae when I went to Vegas last year with my husband. It’s AMAZING! So anytime we are on the West coast, we MUST stop by Ghirardelli. Ghirardelli Square is basically a square with shops, restaurants, and great views to enjoy as well. We got our sundaes at Ghirardelli and it was worth all the calories and sugar! So good! Camille had a great time eating most of my sundae too. I tell you, when you’re a parent nothing is yours anymore! She always reminds me that I should share with her. Go figure!

I hope you enjoyed this travel diary as I shared with you some of our stops on our last family vacation before we become a family of four! This trip meant even more to me knowing that soon, things will change again in the Green household. So it was important to experience new scenery and create moments with Camille as our family of three comes to an end. Again, check out my travel diary videos on my Instagram to see more. I know you will enjoy it!

 

 

Do you have any family vacations coming up soon? Where are you headed? I would love to know!

Hey Loves!

I hope your week is going well! Here in Dallas, Spring has sprung…. sort of! Its warm and beautiful one day, then rainy and humid the next. Not good for a girl with natural hair, the humidity is NOT my friend lately. Anyways, the Spring weather has given me all the spring time feels and wanting to update my wardrobe. I popped in to Forever 21 the other day and found this super cute trench coat duster. I love the light weight of the duster, that it can be worn as an easy layering piece and that it does not require me to button it! Cause girl, I cannot button or zip anything over this bump, ok?!

 

I’ve noticed that the trench coat is a new spring trend as I am seeing it not only in the form of a coat, but in dresses, jumpsuits and duster style like the one I am wearing. I want it all!! Its a good thing  there are many affordable options for the trench coat trend.  We can all go a little crazy and style the trench coat in so many ways. I’m here for it!

 

Are you here for the white boot trend?

Oh and what do you think about these white booties? I wasn’t sure how I felt about the white boot trend, but I found myself falling in love with it when I saw it styled on Instagram and Pinterest. As long as you keep the outfit styled really simple and classic, it will always pop and look good. I wouldnt spend a grip on white booties though, thankfully these were under $40 and I feel thats all I would pay for a white boot!

I linked some great trench coat options and where I got these white booties for the low! Be sure to check it out!!

Hey loves!

 

Can you believe March is basically over with? My little one is due June 30th and I need to get cracking’ on soooo many things. I need to move Camille to her new room and redecorated as well as get his nursery painted and start decorating his room too. It’s a bit overwhelming to think of my things to do list. Its long y’all, long! Send help!

 

This cute sweatshirt dress by Who What Wear was a Target find on one of my many Target runs! I had to get this sweatshirt dress because my clothing selection these days is running low lol. I paired it with sneakers, what woman am I becoming? Lol. You guys know I love a little heel or a flat, but I fell in love with these rose gold Reeboks I found at DSW. They are so comfortable and I’ve been wearing them a lot lately with just about everything. Do you have any comfortable, but stylish sneakers you love? Let me know, I wouldn’t mind getting another pair… or two!

 

So back to this pregnancy, I have 16 weeks to go! It’s unreal. I take my second glucose test tomorrow and I am praying I pass it. I didn’t do so hot on the first one, so it’s making me a bit nervous. This pregnancy has been very exhausting and full of morning (noon, afternoon, whenever) sickness. So as you can imagine, I just want the rest of my second and third trimester to go as smoothly as possible. I want to avoid any issues where I can. Although, that seems a bit hard to do considering I want to eat ice cream in bed whenever I can?? Don’t judge me y’all!

 

Now that I’ve gotten my second wind and have more energy, I am working on getting some content going for you guys. I want to do a video on my favorite lipsticks, nursery reveal, vacation looks and my summer must haves. So get ready ladies! Get ready!

Hey Loves!

 

So I know this is an unusual post as I mainly post about fashion or lifestyle. But, I shared on my Instagram stories that I was doing a pantry makeover. Lord knows it needed it! Cluttered, expired goods and no order left me so annoyed every time I opened my pantry door. I did a poll on Instagram if anyone was interested if I did a blog post regarding my pantry makeover and everyone voted yes. So here we are! You guys are getting an inside look at my pantry. How’s that for getting to know each other better? lol.

 

The first pic in this blog post is my before. Well, not really! This was the day after I trashed all of the expired mess from the pantry. I got a little ahead of myself and forgot to take the true before picture of the pantry. Anyways, when I got fed up regarding the mess of my pantry,  I took to Pinterest for organization ideas and tips. I mean, isn’t Pinterest the greatest for inspiration?! How are we adulating without it, right?

 

The storage solution that stood out to me were wire baskets and labels. I really wanted something we could see thru and not have to always pull out. Especially with Camille being a little more independent now, if she’s able to grab her snacks without needing Mommy or Daddy to help, we’re winning. But, because not any ole’ wire basket would do, I wanted rose gold! You guys, I had the hardest time finding rose gold baskets in the sizes I wanted. I stumbled on a pantry makeover article where they had my coveted rose gold wire baskets. Guess what guys, they were from Amazon!! Has Amazon ever failed us? No, not never!

 

There were a lot of size options, so I ordered quite a few. I wanted to ensure they were deep enough for what I needed and that I ordered enough so I wouldn’t need to order more. These worked out perfectly! I ordered 3 small, 3 medium and the one rectangle one. I also ordered tiered shelving to place canned goods, cooking oil and whatever else that I could easily see displayed. But, the ones you see here are actually from Homegoods! These are 15 inches wide with the option to extend an additional 5 inches. Whereas, the ones from Amazon were only 15 inches wide. Also, the Homegoods tiered shelves were significantly cheaper too! So head there first to see if you can find them!

 

Another great find on Amazon were the “Under Shelf Basket” thats holding all of my foil and ziplock bags. This shelf is so bomb y’all! It comes in a pack of two and all you do is slide the shelf onto your shelf. No screws, nails or any drilling! Just slide and go! This is perfect to utilize more shelving space and get rid of the clutter. Amazon is just amazing I tell you.

 

The last little detail is that I used gift tags to label each basket. I knew that if I didn’t, I would forget what would go where and the husband would have no clue where to put things. And we cannot have my pantry makeover go down the drain by creating more chaos! What’s so cute is the day I did the pantry makeover and Camille came home from school, she went to get a snack from the pantry and saw her name. So she know’s this basket is Camille’s stuff! Which also makes it easy for her when she helps me to put groceries away. I can just tell her to put it in her basket and she’s good to go!

 

Want to see more home makeover and organization reveals?

Well, I hope you enjoyed my pantry makeover. It makes me happy when I open my pantry and its all nice and pretty. I got a few more spaces to go in the house to get organized such as the spice cabinet, my bathroom closet, Camille’s room and the nursery. So if you guys are interested, I may post about that too! Hey, when you’re over 30, things like this are exciting lol. But, I hope this post is helpful if you are interested in getting your pantry organized. If nothing else, just get a cute rose gold basket girl!

Y’all I don’t know how some pregnant women do it when it comes to dressing up and wearing heels. I am struggling over here because I do not want to participate at all lol. Its like I crave comfortable clothing like I do food. So weird right? I was the same with Camille. At the time I was working, so I had to look a little put together Monday thru Friday. So what they got from me were some V-neck Target tees and my maternity pants, along with a wedge or a flat. Lol, since I am not working, I can currently be seen in something comfortable like yoga pants and a sweatshirt. Which is why I am so thrilled that athleisure wear is considered stylish and on trend. Praise the Lord!

 

However, I was still struggling on where to find cute loungewear or sweatsuit sets. One of my blogger boos and friend, Shana, from Brown Girl Stylish suggested I head to TJ Maxx because they had some great athleisure/ lounge wear options. You guys, TJ Maxx and I use to be besties years ago. I was a regular and the layaway was my jam lol. For some reason, I stopped going and let me tell you, I need to add it back to my rotation on where to shop. I found lots of cute athleisure sets, including the one I’m wearing in this pic! This outfit is NOT maternity, but has good stretch and room for me to grow a bit. I can be cute and prego in this set and I’m here for it!

 

Not only do I crave comfy clothes, but comfy shoes too! I popped over to DSW after I got this set and they had sooooo many cute sneakers. I am not a sneaker girl at all, but honey I had about six pairs I loved that I was trying to narrow down. But, I fell in love with these Nike’s as they are SOOOOOO comfortable and the blush pink was calling my name. It definitely helped that I had a coupon to knock off a couple of bucks too. Don’t you love when that happens?!

 

 

Is athleisure wear on your radar when you’re shopping??

I definitely plan to buy a few more pieces to help me along the rest of this pregnancy. Especially if it has me out in these streets looking like I have my life together! Athleisure wear is not just for working out or heading to the gym. Its all about comfortable clothes that can translate from gym to every day activities. I linked a few options I found online. But, if you love what I’m wearing, head to your nearest TJ Maxx and take a look!

You guys, I am so excited (and relieved) to finally share with you the gender reveal of our little blessing!! These past few weeks have been rough. Pregnancy is wearing me down and honestly, I just didn’t have the will to plan anything elaborate with this gender reveal. I had the flu over a week ago and it really wore me out. This past week I am trying to return back to normal and get back in the swing of things. Including blogging! But hey, sometimes we just have to take time out and get our mind and bodies, Amen?!

 

Anyhoo, I found out the gender of our baby on my birthday, January 15th!! My husband, Eric, was a bundle of nerves as he really wanted a boy. He kind of wanted to be surprised this go around with the gender reveal, but my planner brain will just not allow me to be so spontaneous. I admire those who can go the full nine months without finding out the gender. But, not this girl! I really was hoping for another girl this time around. I mean I have tons of Camille’s clothes from when she was a baby. We barely gotten rid of any of her baby clothes because I wanted baby #2 to wear them again. Not just for convenience, but I simply adored them and wanted to see them on my little one, one more time!

 

As you can see from the pictures, God has blessed us with a little boy!!! You guys, I have no clue how I am meant to be a boy mom. Everything about me is so girly, I just can’t imagine a little rough and tough little boy. But, I am so excited to meet him and hold him in my arms for the first time. Like I said, Eric really desired a son. Even though I wanted another girl, I am glad that he is getting the son he always wanted. I know he wants to raise a strong, intelligent man and continue the Green name. So yes, we have one of each! Its so crazy, I am still pinching myself that I am even pregnant with number two and that its a boy! 2017 was such a tough year for us, but 2018 is already starting off great!

 

Do we have a name picked out?

We are still deciding on a name and have it narrowed down to 3. I won’t even bother telling you now the name choices, because it took us forever with nailing down Camille’s name lol. So keep us lifted on figuring his name out! Camille does feel strongly about one name so it seems like we are leaning towards that direction. We shall see!

Well you guys, the time has come! I have to give up my Shoe Room with baby #2 on the way. Camille is going to move into my shoe room and baby #2 will take Camille’s nursery. I knew when I designed my shoe room that this was going to happen once we were pregnant again. I’ve had the shoe room for a little over 3 years now. It was a nice run, but its time!

 

While I am a little sad about this, I am actually ok with having to make this transition. We plan to move some of the things from my shoe room to the guest bedroom. It will basically be a shoe room/guest bedroom. In order to make this happen, I have to downsize and get rid of a lot of stuff. I don’t know if its nesting kicking in, but I am so ready to downsize and let go of a lot of my shoes. Honestly, I haven’t worn many of them in years. So its just taking up precious space and its time for it to go.

 

One of my followers suggested I sell my shoes on Poshmark, so I created an account. There are over 40 pairs of shoes are listed there! I wanted to share with you all my Postmark closet so you can take a look and shop my closet. My shoe size is a  6.5/7 and I will also be listing handbags, Camille’s old clothes and shoes and whatever else I decide to sell. So stay tuned and be sure to follow me there! I rather these things go to someone else who will wear and enjoy them, rather then sitting on my shelf. It got a little emotional going thru Camille’s old baby clothes. Time has flown so quickly. My little tiny baby is now a fiery, sweet little 3 year old. Pass me a tissue please!

What is Poshmark?

Poshmark is a great online platform used to buy and sell clothing/shoe etc items online. Its super easy to set up and get started rather you are buying or selling. So here is the link to my Poshmark closet (CLICK HERE)!  Take a look around and see what you like! I am willing to negotiate prices, so don’t be afraid to ask!

 

Do you need to do a closet clean out? Let me tell you, I am so excited to let go of some of these things and just keep what I truly love and use. After this closet clean out, it will be time to get started on redoing Camille’s room! Let me know if you want me to share that process with you too if you’re interested!

Ohhh girl, let me tell you. The struggle has been REAL trying to be comfortable in my clothes over the past few weeks. Since this is my second pregnancy, I am showing a lot faster than I did with Camille. I’m only 16 weeks and I don’t think I was this size with Camille until I was about 20 weeks. Therefore, I had to find some comfy bottoms to work into my wardrobe. I think there is a limitation as to when one should have on sweats or track pants seven days a week as a wardrobe option lol. I’m just saying!

 

I had some old maternity jeans that I kept from my last pregnancy. When I tried them on,  the jeans offered little relief, the fit was not flattering AT ALL and they lacked style. They were bootcut, no distressing and my butt looked less than impressive lol.  Y’all know I love distressed, ripped jeans and really wanted a pair this go around to work into my wardrobe. Thank goodness PinkBlush has a few options in various colors that fit perfectly and still allows me to be all stylish and what not.

 

Listen, when I got these in the mail and put them on, I literally exhaled. Lol, they are so comfy, my butt looks good in them and the distressing on them is perfection. I can’t wait to order a few other colors such as grey and black. Now I have a pair of go to jeans that I can go from running errands with Camille to date night! I enjoyed pairing it with my faux fur jacket and booties. It was nice to look stylish the day we shot this look … never mind that I’ve been in pjs or sweat pants all weekend long lol.

 

PinkBlush also offers NON-MATERNITY options. So if you aren’t preggers, you do not need to feel left out. Definitely check out their regular clothing line for great, affordable pieces as well. There is something for everyone!

Hello Loves!

 

I am so excited to share this great news! We are expecting our little bundle of joy in June!! I cannot be more excited to share with my readers that I am pregnant. Y’all it has been so hard trying to keep a secret and camouflage this belly. I am so relieved that I can now spill the beans and share with you such an exciting moment in our lives. We have been planning to grow our family by one more and it finally happened! Sometimes we wonder if God hears our prayers and the answer is yes, yes HE DOES!

 

2017 was such a hard year for my family. We went through a lot! When I looked back over the year, it just seemed like things weren’t going the way we planned. After multiple UNEXPECTED home repairs, trying to get pregnant, my husband and I both having to get new cars a week a part from each other, my dog getting hit by a car and passing away and lastly, the unexpected loss of my mother-in-law in September, 2017 has not been the kindest to us. It was where you kind of questioned if God was taking you through something, to teach you a few lessons? And if so, when was this period of trials and tribulations gonna end? Lol. It was just a tough time. Apparently God had a plan!

 

Just as we least expected it, I found out I was pregnant in October. Let me tell you, when I took the test I just knew it couldn’t be. I waited a few extra days before taking the test because I just didn’t think it was so. Also, its nothing like a wasted pregnancy test. Them babies aren’t cheap! Lol.  But, there it was! As soon as I saw that positive, I just heard God say this is the light at the end of the tunnel. I couldn’t wait to tell Eric. The timing was perfect,  I gave him the best surprise on his birthday! He couldn’t have been happier.

 

I am not one to share with everyone as soon as I find out that I am pregnant.  The first trimester is such a critical time, so we kept the surprise from family and friends until I was 13 weeks. It was such a relief and so fun to reveal to the family we were expecting on Christmas Eve. And now, I am finally sharing this with you! I am 16 weeks pregnant and if you want to know how I’ve been feeling…. sick and tired. Literally sick and tired!

 

How will this change the blog now that I am pregnant?

I plan to continue blogging as usual. But, it has been a little hard not feeling at 100 percent. Also, I feel like I have nothing to wear or nothing that I am excited to wear lol. Maybe its just a mood that I am in. I’ll probably be rocking more sporty looks, because all I want, is super comfy clothes that I don’t have to tug on or adjust all day long. But, I am sure you all would like to see some maternity fashion as well, so I am gonna do my best to share maternity and non maternity looks. I can’t make any promises though, with Camille all I wore was Target t-shirts and maternity pants lol. I’ve got to do better this last go around!

 

And we just found out today what we are having. I am keeping that a secret until I figure out how I want to reveal the news. I am claiming 2018 to be GREAT and so should you!!

Bell Sleeve Velvet Wrap Top $18!

Layered Tassel Earrings $13

 

This velvet top screams Valentine’s Day to me! Its so pretty, soft and gives off the right amount of sexy and romantic vibes I must say. Especially with the off shoulder and pretty velvet texture. I had to share this velvet top with you all so you can grab it now. Valentine’s Day will be here before we know it. So lets go ahead and get some Valentine’s Day outfit ideas in mind shall we?

 

I’ve fallen prey to the velvet trend and simply cant get enough. Its something about a super soft fabric such as velvet that makes it so soft, luxurious and even comfortable. I think this top is also perfect for Galentine’s Day if you are celebrating with your girls too. For $18, you just need to grab this top  ASAP! You never know when you’ll need it, hey better safe then sorry right?!

 

I just wanted to pop in for a quick post to let you all know about this top. Are you following me on Instagram? If so, you should! You definitely want to be “in the know,” regarding all of my content that I don’t always share on the blog!

 

I linked a few other velvet options for you below! Is the velvet trend one you love too?
