it fits.

yesterday i came home to the most unexpected, bestest ever, much needed surprise that i have ever received... 

have you ever sat around, looking at your closet thinking everything in there is old/gross/too small/too stretched/too faded/just blah? you have, i know you have. and then in the middle of your pity party, you start to fantasize that a good looking 20-something stud shows up with great pieces that will accentuate your best features, feel like cashmere, oh and fit like a glove. ah come on, admit it, how great would that be?!

well, it happened to ME!!! my handsome husband went shopping...just. for. me.  and it was even better than anything i have ever dreamed up. and, to my own surprise, i could have cared less what he brought home! picturing him going into the gap maternity section and perusing the racks and racks of larger than life duds, all with the sweetest of intentions to find the perfect pieces for me, welp, its pretty amazing. to know that he really wanted to do something just to make me feel better about me is beyond thoughtful and the gesture is more than i could have ever expected. here's the bonus, every single item was a hit! i can't even shop like that for myself most of the time. it all fits, and today for the first time in a looooonng time, i actually felt put together, i felt like me. it is a gift so much bigger than i think even my husband can ever comprehend. i am humbled by the moment and will appreciate it forever. 


he's got a gift.
oh and this top was soooo perfect for my lady lumps, it made me do this...
and this...
and this.
thank you lover.
