Jewelry for Moms with Babies

As a new mom, I find myself avoiding wearing jewelry. I don't want Tate pulling or chewing on my favorite pieces. Imagine how excited I was to find a whole collection of jewelry specifically made for baby to chomp on. (I'll give you a hint: really excited.)
 
So, I did a round up of my favorite teething jewelry at Babble.

Babble Posts


I write daily for Babble's Baby's First Year. Here are my recent posts:

I am getting really frustrated with all the strangers grabbing at my baby. So, I wrote an open letter to strangers who fondle my baby.

Did you hear about the ice cream truck driving around Pittsburgh with a boob on top? The Milk Truck Mobile Breastfeeding Unit Hits the Streets.

Do you feel like you got a masters in housework? Read how I am embracing domesticity.

Did you hear that the Duggars are having another baby?! Read my guesses for #20's name (starting with a J, of course).

Tate seems to be getting ready for solids! We are considering using the Baby-Led Weaning method. Do you have any experience with it?


Tate knows who I am, and is starting to be all, "Hey! You're not my mom," when other people hold him.

Weekend Watching

I spent the morning watching Bill Cunningham New York. I loved it.


It follows the 80+ year old, bike-riding photographer, who has been obsessively chronicling fashion trends and high-society charity soirees for the Times's Style section in his columns "On the Street" and "Evening Hours".

It's streaming on Netflix right now. If you have a chance, I highly recommend it.

Have a good weekend.

I Could Do That: Holiday Sparkle Sweater



I posted on this sweater last week.

{Holiday Sparkle Sweater - American Eagle - $59.50}

As I mentioned, I think this is a pretty simple DIY project (granted you find the right applique). So I scoured the web and found a couple of pieces when put together will make a similar look for way less.


Basic Lslv Top - Forever 21 - $14.80
White + Silver Floral Motif Applique (x2) - Sequin Appliques - $5.98
total: $20.78

A few more shirt options:
{one | two | three}

Babble Posts


I write daily for Babble's Baby's First Year. Here are my recent posts:

When I think about Tate's first few weeks, I realized that there are 7 Things I Would Do Differently next time. Is there anything you would do differently?

Tate celebrated his first Halloween, and you'll never guess where we got his turtle costume (on a budget, of course)!

Tate's sleep schedule has gone crazy, and I worry whether co-sleeping is failing us.

And Tate clearly has a boob preference. Have you experienced that with your babies?

Inspired: Pinterest {Camel + Red}


Red jeans have been everywhere for the last few months. I especially like this combo of red + camel (found on pinterest).


Here's my take:
Chiffon Dolman-Sleeve Shirt - Old Navy - $13.65 $19.50 (Orig. $29.94)
Two Tone Ring Necklace - Forever 21 - $8.80
Belted Color Skinnies - Forever 21 - $27.80
Zigi Patent Ballet Flat - Delias -$29.50 (I also like this deeply discounted option)
total:  $79.75

The pants in my look are more muted, but I really dig them. I would love a pair of rust colored pants to wear this fall.

Also, Old Navy is running their Friends + Family deal. Enter ONFRIENDS at checkout.

Spied: Mustard Colorblock Knit Top


Colorblocking is hot. Mustard is hot. Slightly oversized knits are hot. I want this top in a major way.
