Moma Style & A New Do

I haven't done a Moma Style post in FOREVER! I always forget to take pictures in the morning and by the end of the day when I get home, I'm like blah, forget it, I just wanna be in my comfy clothes. So I wrangled the hubs to take a few shots for me. Also, you may notice that I cut about 5 inches or so off my hair and I LOVE it! It's so easy to fix in the mornings now and it's easy to style with my naturally curly hair.

The lowdown:

Everything I'm wearing is from Target.

Target is awesome. The end.

What I Wore Wednesday: Coral & Navy

Happy Wednesday! I finally remembered to take a picture of an outfit. I have always loved navy and now I am really liking this pretty coral color that is everywhere for Spring. I think they go well together with a touch of gray. I bought this skirt on sale last year from Land's End Canvas and wore it for the first time today. My only issue with their skirts is that sometimes I feel like they are a little on the short side, this one is okay but I recently sent back two skirts because they were just a little too short for me. I mean I chase around a two year old so I don't wanna flash anyone!

Tank, Cardigan & Flats: Target
Skirt: Land's End Canvas

I really do enjoy the clothing at Land's End Canvas and I purchase a lot from there on a regular basis so I thought I would share a few of my favorite new arrivals.

I am loving the 'vintage' vibe of these two dresses.
The other colors they are offer are super cute too.

These two shirts caught my eye because they look very comfy and cool for spring.
All items can be found at Land's End Canvas.

Workin Moma: Pop of Pink

I love the pops of pink in this outfit and I am so in love with this super cute belt. I think it's perfect for Spring. Also, these shoes are awesome! It's nice to find something at our local Steinmart that doesn't look like resort wear for an 80 year old. I swear, sometimes when I walk in there I feel like I need sunglasses from all of the fluorescent capris and tops. Yikes!

Hope everyone is having a great week! Happy hump day.

Workin Moma: Spring Showers

I don't know if any of you guys live in the South but we got some crazy storms yesterday!
A friends daughter had a tree fall on her car and I saw several signs blown over this morning on my way to work. Luckily, today was beautiful and sunny again, even if the day did start out at 48 degrees. I am unconsciously on a floral kick lately with my wardrobe, this skirt is so spring-y and flowy. I wish I could find more like it. Also, I am loving these mustard colored shoes I got at Target, you can find them here. (These are still full price but the one's at my store are 1/2 off.)

Tank, Cardigan & Shoes: Target
Skirt: Marshall's

Workin Moma: Floral Pop

Can you believe I am actually posting an outfit picture? I think it's been a few weeks but since we were on Spring Break last week, I didn't really wear anything 'picture' worthy. This week has been so rainy, the kids (and teachers) at school have been going stir crazy not being able to get outside and run around. That's why I chose to wear this pretty spring-y floral shirt, I felt like I needed something bright and cheerful.

Also, I hate the awkwardness of not knowing what to do with my umbrella when I get in the car. I try so hard not to get wet but then I end up slinging the umbrella across my lap into the passenger side floorboard and I end up soaked and the car does too. Am I just missing some magical solution here? Plus, don't get me started about trying to get a toddler in their carseat when it's pouring....grrr!

30 for 30 Challenge: 16-20

Sorry I haven't posted much lately, we have all been passing around the sickness here at home. This is also my last 30 for 30 post, so I guess it's more like 30 for 20. The weather is now in the 80's each day and I picked out sweaters, pants and long sleeves for a lot of my challenge items so for the sake of comfort and not sweating to death, I give up. I give you my final 5:

30 for 30 Challenge: One

Day one is in the bag! Woot! I really like this outfit except that when I got outside this morning, I realized that I had an abundance of blue on the lower half of my body. I kinda felt like Violet from Willy Wonka or a Smurf (Smurfette, of course). If I could do this one over I would choose to wear my gray tights to break up the blue a bit. I love this cardi and I always get lots of compliments when I wear it. Looking forward to seeing everyone else's first looks.

Workin Moma: The Forgotten

Hope you are all having a great weekend, the weather here is beautiful but we are all stuck inside sick. Poor Sydney has the flu and an ear infection, so she has been pitiful the last few days. She has barely let me put her down but today is the first day she hasn't had a fever so I'll take that as a good sign that the meds are kicking in.

Since I am starting Kendi's 30 for 30 Challenge on Tuesday, I figured I'd better post my outfits from the last week that I hadn't gotten around to yet.

Workin Moma: Bitchin' Black

I felt very stylish in this outfit for some reason and a little badass at the same time with these bitchin' black boots on. It's taken me about 2 years to find a pair of black boots that I like and I scored these on sale at the after Christmas sales. Also, I've had this Target blazer in my closet for over a year and never wore it. (I think almost every fashion blogger has this blazer!) Anyway, I like how it all turned out and I got compliments on it all day so I must've done something right.

Trendy Tot Tuesday

Peanut Butter Hand Print & Fashion Momma have started a 'Trendy Tot Tuesday' series and since Syd is always so adorable, I thought we would participate. These pics are actually from this past Saturday. We went shopping in the historic downtown area and Syd dozed off in her stroller.

Workin Moma: What a Feeling

Sorry for lack of posts this week, our whole household has been sick. Luckily we took Syd to the doctor last week and she's been on antibiotics and is doing much better. I still have a little bit of yuck lingering but my poor husband has walking pneumonia. I guess when it rains, it pours!

This simple black dress always makes me feel like twirling around like a ballerina. The material of this skirt is so flowy and dancer-esque. Takes me back to my dancing days....a very long time ago. Also, I love these shoes, the heel is the perfect height and they are so flippin' adorable.

Dress & Belt: Ross
Cardi, Tank & Tights: Target
Heels: Nine West

Weekend Moma: A New Year

The first day of the new year was spent doing one of my favorite things....shopping! My Mom and I went shopping yesterday to catch some of the sweet deals that were going on. (Hello Kohl's, you are awesome!) The hubby took Sydney to the Zoo for the day so it was really nice to have just some time with my Mom. We haven't went shopping together without Sydney in forever, since Syd was born!

The weather was back up into the low 70's so I wore this super comfy Target dress and one of my beloved Anthro cardi's. Also, these flats (sorry I cut them off in the pic) are one of my fav recent purchases from Target and I think they were like $8.00 on clearance.

Outfits of 2010

Since I've seen other bloggers doing their favorite outfits of 2010, I thought I would just pick my top 5. These are in no particular order.

This Target dress is so cute and I love those purple shoes.

I wish I would've bought this dress in every color. It's comfy and so flattering.

I love this cardigan and I think it looks cute with the pops of red.

Love this top from Anthro and my bright blue cardi.

My birthday ensemble, I am in love with this Anthro dress.
Super comfy and I love the vintage look.

Looking back at 2010 has made me realize that I need to step it up a bit for 2011.
I guess we'll see how that goes.

Workin Moma: Fit to Be Tied

So did you guys score any deals at Anthro with the the 25% off sale items and discounted jewelry? I scooped up the Shine Through Button Up that popped back up on my wishlist, the Homestead Denim Skirt and some holiday sale items.

Also I am in love with these two new arrivals! The Across the Land dress and the Sing Sweetly Party dress are both amazingly adorable. I love polka dots and anything with a bird print is a must have for me. What new arrivals have you been drooling over lately??

I wore this outfit a few days ago to work and I really wanted wanted to take the picture with my jacket on because I always forget to include outerwear in my outfit pics. I adore these bow tights from Anthro!

Workin Moma: Coral & Gray

I wore this outfit to work last week and I must say that I love these two colors together! They feel nice and cheery on a cold day. Plus, I love these purple ruffed shoes, I think I scored them for like $6 at Bealls Outlet. I love finding a great deal like that!

P.S. Please forgive the Christmas tree needles on my floor, I didn't realize how bad it looked until I saw this picture.

Casual Moma: OOTD Catch Up

Sorry I have been MIA lately, this time of year is CRAZY! I'm sure that you are all feeling as overwhelmed and stressed as me. At least it finally got cold here in FL so we have been enjoying the cooler weather. I do love pulling out the cardigan collection as evidenced below. Here's a quick OOTD catch up:

A Night at the Ritz...

On Saturday night, my school (and Syd's school) had their annual 'Big Event' fundraiser at the Ritz Carlton. So I was pretty excited about getting all dressed up and having a grown-up night to ourselves. I scored big on this Anthro dress, there was only one left in the sale section and it happened to be my size. I was so excited when I saw that it was only $39.95 and I was telling the lady at the checkout how it was 'meant to be' and then it rang up for only $19.95! She was like, 'now it really was meant to be!' (I also picked up the Highest Accolades Dress!) I was so happy because I hadn't been to Anthro in like two months.

(My Mom made up do the cheesy 'prom' pose below!)

Dress: Anthropolgie Drifting by Dress
Sequin Cardigan, Purse & Headband: Target
Heels: DSW

I also surprised the hubs by getting up a room at the Ritz for the night. This was my first night away from Sydney ever! He was so shocked that I actually kept it a secret, I packed a bag ahead of time and snuck it into the car right before we left for the event.

This is us being silly:

Me eating the delicious chocolate that was in our room.

I told Ed the hallway was like The Shining, so he acted scared for me.

The chocolate loveliness that was in our room.

Working Moma: Eye of the Tiger

I actually wore this outfit last week but never got around to posting it. I was called, 'Jungle Lady', 'Wild Woman' or some other variation throughout the day when I wore this cardi. One of the kids at school said that I looked like a cowgirl. I took this as a compliment because cowgirls are awesome. I think I could wrangle a cow in this, all I need is my cowboy hat and a rope.

Steppin Out Saturday

So our Saturday was pretty tame around here, we just did a little shopping and went out to eat lunch. The great news is that it finally cooled down so if felt great outside. We were planning on making a trip to the zoo but Sydney's nap threw us off schedule and by the time we would've made it there we were afraid it would be getting to chilly for her. (I know it was only like 60 degrees but we are Floridians, so give us a break!)

On Moma:
Cardigan: Old Navy

On Sydney:
Jacket, Shoes & Jeggings: Target

I am loving this picture that the hubby took of Syd and I! I'm used to being behind the camera, not in front of it. Plus these days it's hard to get Syd to hold still long enough for us to get a good picture.

Working Moma: Feelin' Royal

I am feeling very royal today with my gold and purple combo. This dress from Land's End Canvas is so easy and comfortable, plus it was on sale so, yipee! I actually ordered a few other items (here, here, here, here) from their fall sale but I have to return all of them except the cords (which are awesome, BTW) because they were to big. I really am loving the brand though, the quality of the clothes are great and they are always running some sort of promotion. I highly recommend them.
