Happy Friday, friends! I always love a Friday but look, I’m just glad that I finally know what day it is. I’ve been in the baby fog for the last month, always being surprised that it’s a weekend or a weekday. Baby fog, man. It’s kind of like being in a waking coma. I feel like yesterday I woke up and couldn’t believe it was mid-September already. Time kind of stops with a newborn in the first month. But we are one month in and things are starting to feel normal a bit more. In fact, we are now brave enough to use the car seat and take her places besides the doctor. It took me a while to be okay with all of us in the car. That sounds insane but I’m basically afraid of everything now – ha! But last night was so pretty we decided to load her up after her evening feed and walk around downtown. Sweet baby girl was sleeping and there was such a nice breeze. Autumn evenings are my favorite and we are almost there. I need one good cool front and I’ll be in heaven. As you very well know, fall is my favorite.

Speaking of favorites, I’ve always loved Free People but right now I am all about their tops. This one is the perfect amount of flowy for me. My postpartum body is different; I knew it would be but I’m learning to work with it. And you know what? A nice flowy button down is a lifesaver and I love this jewel tone. I almost went with the white one but then I looked at my closet and saw the SEA of white blouses and decided to take a chance on teal. Such a rebel these days, right?

I said this yesterday but it feels really good to be in regular clothes again. Front tuck forever.

Fit Details

Free People runs big but stay true to size if you like the way it fits on me! I would size down in the denim — runs generous!

Each month I create monthly capsules out of my favorite pieces, perfectly curated for each month.
