Happy Monday! Today I am so excited to share one of my new go-to purses, and the amazing company that makes them! Mona B is a brand committed to sustainability, which is something I’m definitely trying to be more aware of these days, in all areas! But as a consumer, I still want the items to be pretty and functional, and this bag does just that!
The Gardenia bag is part of the Canvas Collection, which is made from reclaimed military tents and tarps, re-milled into a durable upcycled fabric that celebrates the rugged texture of the raw material. I seriously would have never known! The quality of this handbag is great and I love that it’s still fashionable and feminine.
As a mom of two (almost 3!) I need purses that are practical, but they still need to be cute and fashionable. When I got this Gardenia handbag I was instantly in love. The embroidery is beautiful and I love pink! The amount of storage in this bag is also impressive- I packed my wallet in the zippered middle, and had snacks and wipes for the kids on one side and phone, chapstick, keys on the other. And there was still a ton of room!
This bag has been in constant use these days (as you can see from my daily outfits on Instagram). Besides purses, Mona B has apparel, home items, and the cutest gifts! I also got this Cheers wine bag and love it! It makes the cutest housewarming or hostess gift, and it’s also great for toting a bottle of wine to dinner. 
I’m planning to get a lot of use out of it after this baby is born!
Make sure to check out Mona B and grab a beautiful upcycled handbag for yourself!

dress- Forever 21 sold out, sandals
I don’t know about you, but I’ve been shopping at Forever 21 pretty much since high school (was that when it was invented?!). I have a love/hate relationship with the store… I LOVE the cute styles and everything is super-affordable and trendy. I HATE how difficult it is to find what you want in store, which is why I do most of my shopping there online. It’s so easy to browse the styles and find your size!
I recently ordered about 7 dresses and only had to return a couple! Today I’m sharing some of my favorites from their site, and many are around $20. You can’t beat that! And, I feel like the quality is usually decent. I wash all of my Forever 21 items on cold and usually hang dry, which helps them last and stay in good condition.
Since I’m a mom and gotta keep it classy for my kiddos, I consider all of these dresses to be “Mom-Appropriate.” I did still include off-the-shoulder tops because I love them for summer and can still perform my mom duties in them. Another tip: size up in wrap dresses! You can tie them tighter but will appreciate the extra length.
Which ones are your favorite?

Happy Monday! Do those two words even go together?! For me, they do, since I’m a teacher on summer break! Thank goodness for breaks, since these past couple of weeks have been madness. We’re all moved into our new house and now just trying to get organized. I’m having a ton of fun ordering all of the furniture to fill this new place up, but it is exhausting!
I’ve been on my feet so much these past couple of weeks and they’ve been killing me. Lucky for me, SAS Shoes sent me the cutest “comfy” shoes I’ve ever seen, and they arrived just in time!
When they first reached out to me, I was immediately taken by their slogan: Style Feels Good. Ummm, yes please! As women we’ve been conditioned to think beauty is pain, but that’s not always the case. Especially when it comes to shoes since us mamas are on our feet all day long!
The Sanibel Shoe has been a lifesaver this past week with moving, and my feet feel so good when I’m wearing them. It’s like walking on a pillow! I also love the olive snakeskin print on the shoes. It’s so versatile and the perfect colors for summer.
SAS Shoes are made with premium leather and have shock-absorption soles. There was no breaking-in period with these sandals and they felt so good the moment I put them on. You can definitely tell you’re wearing a properly constructed shoe!
Be sure to check out SAS Shoes and get yourself a pair! The comfort is unbeatable, and your feet will thank you

]]>I know I hesitate to spend too much money on maternity clothes because they will definitely get less wear that a piece you can wear for years. However, I FULLY believe that every mama should feel her best, and if that means buying the maternity swimsuit you really want, then go for it!
I’ve rounded up 30 of the cutest maternity swimsuits I could find, and I’m sorting them into two categories, depending on your budget. I was only looking for one suit and now I’ve got to decide between 30- but that’s a good problem to have!
Under $50
Under $100
I hope you can find a maternity swimsuit you love out of these options! Maternity swimsuits have come such a long way since I had my first! Happy Shopping!

dress (print online), similar belt, slides
Loft is one of my favorite places to shop. The clothing is so well made and they always have feminine pieces with the prettiest details. Even though I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant, I won’t let that stop me from shopping! I can’t wear everything I’d like to, but this elastic waist skirt is definitely in my basket!
I’m wearing this OTS dress (I can only find the print online) and instead of the belt it came with, I chose to switch it out with a leopard print belt. And where there is leopard, a pop of red is necessary! Wearing my favorite slides, as usual
Today I’m sharing some of my favorites from Loft, and you can get an extra 40% off of all of them with the code HBDUSA
