Ruffled Sweatshirt

This year's New Year's Eve was exactly what I wanted: low key, good friends and delicious food! Haha! We went to our friends, Olivia (remember Olivia? Amazing lashes-Pilates-extraordinaire?) and Daniel's, and they cooked for us and got amazing pizza delivered. There were the best cupcakes (Latest Crave in Geneva, omg!), party favors (adorable!), and just the perfect amount of relaxing that a 27 week pregnant lady loved. I even had some extra diet peach Snapple so I could stay up for the ball dropping-- LOL!  Knowing we would be in a more relaxing setting, I opted for this ruffle-sweatshirt from J. Crew that I just love. It is comfy but still put together. The ruffle detail is the best. It's on the back, too!!

Oh! And if you're looking for a hilariously fun game, get Monikers! We were laughing soooo hard playing on NYE!!! It was a blast. Thanks to my cousins Caitlin and Neil for getting us that game for Christmas! I had never heard of it before!



Now, full disclosure: I got my shirt on sale for $14! LOL. I would not pay full price for it. Linking more options below! Wait for it to go on sale, for sure.  And it will!

Lip color: (side note: this is what I used for my wedding on 7/11/15, and it has lasted this long! Also, it never needs reapplying!).



27 weeks pregnant! AH! I will be officially 6 months on my birthday tomorrow, January 6! 

OMG these!!! hahaha!! Okay, so we got a random Chewy package the other day, and these were in it! We had entered some contest in June for fun where you take pictures of your dogs in the Chewy box, and they PAINTED THESE PICTURES FOR US for Christmas! I couldn't believe my eyes! With a handwritten note!! HOW NICE! 
Here are the original pictures we submitted:






Absolutely loving these ruffle-sleeved sweater options:
