Diaper Bag lust list 2014

I figured I would knock a few items off my list over the next few weeks (must list for the baby) so bear with me. Today, this week, I am checking out diaper bags. Is it just me or did they get a lot cooler over the past few years?? I haven't been able to narrow down to what I want yet, but I figured once we found out what we are having I'll be able to figure it out accordingly. For now here are my top picks:

Happy Monday! 

After our ultrasound last week... we were just a little excited. Can you tell?

How do I say this.....

I don't know where to start.... I have had a love for one piece outfits for all my life long, if you guys recall: My Unhealthy Love. It started with overalls (Still my first true love) but it now has evolved into something even more amazing.... Jumpsuits. Wonderful. Fabulous. Magical.... jumpsuits. 

With Fall just around the corner I thought that I was at a lost in my search for finding my jumpsuit for the season.... and then I found it. The JS (my new slang for jumpsuit....see what I did there?) that I have been searching high and low for:

Now, I know what you are thinking.... it's almost too wonderful to actually wear in public, but I know that with the right hair/makeup/shoes I can make this work for me.... as a Halloween costume :) Did you seriously think I would wear this in public? You're silly. 

Happy Friday!

Nasty Gal

Fashion Friday!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a thing. I just made it one. Because.... I love clothes, deal with it. So I stumbled, willingly with open arms, on to a sight called NastyGal.com....No it's not an inappropriate website, it's actually an addicting clothing website. So I wanted to post a few of the looks that I am lusting after right now. (Not that I can pull any of them off) I love clothing that doesn't make you have heat stroke in the summer, because I am a hot German. Like I get really hot, not that I am 'HOT'....stop thinking I am being conceited!! Anywho, Happy Friday! Here it is: 

Haute Look Hustle.

I love many 'discount' retail sites..... I like helping the economy and getting a good deal. Today I am doing my Haute Look Hustle, displaying the items that caught my eye on Haute Look today! Check them out, they have great deals and great selections! Click Here to Join!

Spring 2013 of Clothes

I have had a blast lately with all the new styles out there, and though my style is definitely in a wide array of genres somehow they usually work together for the best. Here are my favorite must haves of the moment from ASOS and ModCloth. What are you guys excited about? What is heading into your closet this Spring?

Our Shopping Cart At Gap

So, I am pretty sure that Gap was speaking our language this Spring 2013 collection.....Here is what is happening in our Cart right now:

And then the list grew.

This weekend Mini decided that she needed to do her own online shopping for herself....how is this happening?? She took over the computer and she made her selections for what she 'needed' for the new year. I think it goes without saying that she has fabulous taste.

Love my girls style! Happy Shopping :)

Toys!

In our house we have our 'toy favorites', but I am always interested in finding new and fun toys to add to the mix. My go to for unique toys this Christmas season? Etsy. I always go to them for home decor and girlie bows, but they have so many other items that are just waiting to be discovered. Here are some of the items that I have found and love:





Check them out! I love the options and the quality that is out there for our babies! Some are funky, some are classics, and they all are you unique which I love more than anything. Happy Shopping! 

Cute (Girl) Baby Shoes

I loved, loved, loved buying shoes for Mini when she was a baby and I still do. Now that the next serge of adorable babies are on the horizon with many people I know I thought I finally had an excuse to look at ittle shoes again! Here are some of my favorites! Enjoy :)

The Cookie Cure.

I have always believed that there is cure for pretty much anything if baked goods and giggles were involved. I am sure there are those out there that disagree but for me today I believe that we must try. The weather change/being in school/life have brought on a bit of a cold to my Mini today and I am ready to take that cold on!

First step surround her with the animals that she loves, favorite toys, blankie, and snuggle the cold out of her while watching her favorite movies....next make a pile of homemade gluten free cookies.... and then some more loving to top it off. I think it sounds like a good plan. Hope you all stay cold free and have a great weekend, I know we are!

Hear come the Holidays, Part 1

Top Right Clockwise: Glazed caramelized onions to top the mashed potatoes and gravy, Rosemary dinner rolls, Pumpkin Chocolate Tiramisu, Spiced Pumpkin Cheesecake Truffle, Jerusalem Artichoke Gratin, and French Toast Dumplings. 

I love the Holidays....a lot. I love the cold weather, the excuse to layer clothes, drink everything flavored with peppermint or pumpkin, snuggle up and watch cheesy movies, and so very much more. Becoming a parent made all of that so much more than it every was to me, and because of that we start early and we enjoy every second of the Holidays that much more.

But today is not about the traditions, it is not about the crafts or the days and party favors to come, those are for another blog in a very soon post to follow. Today is about food! I love taking the tried and true recipes and mixing them up into something fun and unique, while still staying true to their roots. Here are some of my Thanksgiving foods for thought:

My All Saints Christmas List....

My All Saints Christmas List.... by dmama07 featuring oversized tops

Sometimes I think that maybe, just maybe, Santa would want my Christmas list so I thought I would start getting it together. This week I am featuring my All Saints Christmas List. I can't help it, they make everything I love. Oversized tops, awesome boots, and dresses that make you want to curl up  in your favorite quilt and drink a hot chocolate..... Speaking of that I think I might just do that now. Have a great weekend! 

This Week in Makeup

I used to LOVE makeup. Love it something fierce. I had a closet full of makeup, because lets face it, it's fun to play with. And then last year I went on a little 'makeup free journey' to find myself...let me just tell you, I couldn't find myself and it was boring! So now I am getting into the swing of things, and might I mention having a blast doing so!

Here are a few items that I picked up this week:
