It’s been over a week and I’m still dreaming of the dinner LoveShackFancy hosted at Zero George in honor of their newest store opening on King Street.

Known for their super feminine, vintage-inspired designs, LoveShackFancy has become a cult classic for many and after meeting their over-the-top founder, Rebecca Cohen, I totally understand why! What you see from the brand is just an extension of her own life. She’s fabulous in every since of the word and has built a little world for herself that she allows her customers to buy in to.

On this Small Business Saturday, I wanted to share a product from a small business that I discovered during my pregnancy and have since really cherished as a new mom.

Petite Keep creates beautiful keepsake trunks that you can use to store your favorite memories. Though it would also be great for a bride or newlywed couple, I’ve been using one to store all of Teagan’s newborn things that I just can’t part with.

The great thing about fall is that it brings some of the greatest colors to our lives. Dark purples, warm oranges, and vibrant reds fill the trees and our closets, but nothing compliments a fall outfit more than a matching fall lipstick! Matte Lips are a classic fall staple and if you want to make a lasting impression with your fall attire, your lipstick should represent the season too. Some brands have created the most rich browns and warm tones to recreate the best fall colors.

I woke up that Wednesday not feeling quite like myself. I skipped out on Bible Study (which I usually try really hard not to do) and spent time resting alone until I had to run an errand + go to my hair appointment. Around mid-day, I began feeling cramps but I just powered through. My final stop was the grocery store, but walking around that old mill felt like torture, so I cut the trip short and headed home.

Nothing says October tradition like pumpkin patches! Picking pumpkins at pumpkin patches is a classic outdoor activity to celebrate the beginning of autumn and get prepared for the spookiest time of the year. Over the years, it’s become an even bigger spectacle with hayrides, games, and even petting zoos! Pumpkins are only shown off for a short time of the year, so it’s important to find the best one that fits your home. If you’re not too fond of flashy decorations, pumpkins come in all sorts of sizes, shapes, and colors.

I’ve had my eye on today ever since I circled + starred it back in February. Because back then, my doctor told me September 27th, 2021 was the date I could expect(ish) my baby to arrive, and I’d been looking forward to it ever since. But Teagan had other plans and made his grand entrance on September 23rd. The extra 4 days with him have been tough, but they’ve been pure magic.

Now that I’ve been pregnant for nine whole months, I think I have a good grasp on how to dress for a bump. I’ve said it a million times:  I was sooo lucky to be pregnant when I was. Not only did the weather allow me to throw on a dress and keep it moving, but babydoll dresses are VERY trendy right now, so often I could just size up at stores I already shopped at.
