August was a BIG month around here for us. It was the last few weeks of my pregnancy, little Eliana was born, and Layla turned four! My sister and parents all came into town as well, so our lives were crazy and so full. I’m excited to share my Instagram round-up from August with y’all because there are so many great memories here! There are also quite a few great transitional outfits!

This ribbed dress was one of my fav non-maternity pieces at the end of my pregnancy! I sized up two for the bump, but I’d recommend sizing up one if you’re not expecting. It also comes in red and is currently 40% off!

Another one of my fav purchases of summer was this camo jacket. If you take a glance through my Instagram, you’ll see it countless times! I love wearing it with tees, dress, tanks, everything! It’s also currently 40% off!

If you’re looking for the perfect layering tee, this one is it! I own it in three colors– it actually comes in eight!! These leggings are also a staple. I own three pairs of them now. They run TTS, but I bought these one size up for pregnancy and postpartum.

Here are two favs from my recent Target Universal Thread try-on session. This $22 cardi is a great Nordstrom dupe!

Cardigan (M) | Dress (L) | Birkenstocks 

I love kimonos for both pregnancy and postpartum! They’re flattering and offer nice coverage for nursing! This one also comes in black and is 50% off, making it under $15!

I bought this henley near the very end of my pregnancy, knowing it’d be a great nursing option! It comes in five colors! I love the slightly faded, worn-in look and feel!

Oh heeey, sweet Eliana! Aaron took this snap on her first day with us! I just love this photo of her!

These pjs are a staple! I now own them in three colors. They are under $20 and are seriously SO SOFT. I sized up one and they lasted my entire pregnancy. For nursing, they’re also a major winner!

PJs (under $20 – TTS) | Bow | Blanket

Here are those fav leggings again! I love the high waist cut for holding everything in! My sweater is also on sale for 50% off!

Remember my post one plaid top styled fifteen ways? Well, this is another one of those plaids. I love ’em! They are so versatile! Also, I know you’ve seen these mules several times now! I love them and the price point — under $25!

On Lauren – Plaid (M) | Shorts | Mules | Baby Wrap

On Layla – Tank | Shorts | Jellies

I grabbed this cami on a recent Target run! It’s the perfect layering piece for jackets and cardigans! I also really liked the texture of this cardi!

Camisole (L) | Cardigan (M) | Shorts | Birkenstocks | Sunglasses under $10!

For nursing, this top is a must! The buttons are functioning! I sized up to a large for a slightly longer fit in the front. It also comes in olive and black and is only $18!

On Lauren – Top | Shorts | Mules | Diaper Backpack 

On Layla – Dress | Jellies

Believe it or not, Layla put this outfit together! She even placed the headband like this! Am I creating a monster?! None of these pieces are new, but I couldn’t skip sharing this one because of Layla!!
