Ok, so I'm a Lilly Lover Now

I'm a total sucker for Lilly Pulitzer's rebranded image. I never thought twice about LP. Ok well that's not totally true - I always thought of LP as pretty stuffy and certainly not my thing. Now it appears that Lilly has removed the pole from her butt and I'm sort of digging these recent ads in my inbox.


Are you a devoted Lilly fan? Or a recent convert. What do you think of the new image?

postpartum pant panic


it was a bittersweet moment. i called lucy today to place an order for more of my favorite yoga pant (the harmony pant) and learned that (gasp!) they're no longer making them. uh oh. not good... i was counting on a heavy rotation of harmony pants in the days post delivery. the waist on these babies is perfect for that period -- soft, adjustable (roll up or roll down) and cozy. and the pant comes in different lengths. at 5'7" i'm just tall enough that many yoga pants leave me looking like i'm awaiting a flood. 

now the good news - lucy does have a limited number of harmony pants left for a short period of time. i was forced to order them in orchid, a color i wouldn't normally choose, but i'll just have to deal right? at $19.99 i can't complain (my original pairs went for $78). so i got a good deal, but this will be my last pair of harmonies. ever. 

what was/is your postpartum pant of choice? i'd love to hear, especially if you're on the taller side. 

ps. lucy claims their new asana pant is a new, improved version of the harmony pant with more stretch and a less-bulky waistband, but i'm sticking with the harmony until asana goes on sale.

uggs...don't let me do it


i've mocked uggs since they came on the scene a few years ago. over the years i may have called them

disgusting
hideous
filthy looking
dumpy
Uggly
and the list goes on....

but with cooler temps approaching, i'm concerned i may be forced to jump on the ugg bandwagon. tell me where i can find a water resistant, super cozy boot without laces. as a busy mom with poor circulation in my fingers, laces are not my friend in the winter.

suggestions, anyone? what are we thinking of this merrell boot instead?
