Bump Friendly Boho Dress
This dress is one of my favorite bump-friendly pieces I’ve found so far from online boutique, Wren & Ivory. Wren and Ivory has a whole collection of dresses and separates that are “bump-friendly” meaning they aren’t necessarily full-on maternity and you can easily wear them when you aren’t pregnant too! I love this concept since I’m not wanting to waste money on a lot of maternity pieces with only a few weeks left to go! I also like how they show you how the pieces look on models both pregnant and not pregnant so you can see how the fit will vary. The long sleeves, empire drawstring waist, and midi cut made this SO comfortable as well.
DIY Autumn Stovetop Simmering Scent
One of the best parts of autumn is undoubtedly all the wonderful scents of the season! For a couple of years I have been putting together these homemade stove-top fall scents for the store and my own home. Each year I have added a few more ingredients and perfected my recipe a little more. These little jars of ingredients pack a punch, within a few minutes they will make your whole home smell just heavenly and exactly like fall! I've included all the ingredients and step-by-step directions below so that you can make your own. We recently had our own build-your-own simmering scent station set up at the mercantile and it was a huge hit! We had all the ingredients ready and empty jars available for customers to fill and customize themselves.
Classic Fall Chili Recipe
I’ve been craving all the comfort foods at this stage in my pregnancy and I’m so excited to start making all my favorite fall recipes. I don’t know how I made it this long without sharing this chili recipe, but it’s one of my favorite dinners for fall and winter. This chili is no fuss and nothing fancy, but so hearty and delicious! My secret is using half ground pork and half ground beef for extra flavor. This chili has just the right amount of spice and seasoning without being too overpowering. You can serve with or without spaghetti and customize with your favorite toppings (I’ve listed mine below).
Layered Fall Maternity Outfit
I wanted to share this simple outfit to throw on for fall when you have a growing baby bump! Start with a solid bodycon dress and layer with an open oversized flannel over top, then add some sneakers and you are good to go! I loved the colors in this flannel from Target- it looks and feels vintage even though it’s brand new! It is perfect for wearing with jeans or wearing open and layering over a dress or simple tee. I sized up on this one for an over-sized look plus to accommodate this big bump! This simple tank dress isn’t maternity either but it has enough stretch that I’ve been able to wear it throughout my pregnancy without a problem.
