What I Wore: 5 Fall Outfit Ideas
Happy Holiday Season! I wanted to share a quick look back at some of my fall outfits from last month. My November was all about comfort as I planned many leggings friendly outfits. I did wear a great pair of flared black jeans that are petite friendly, yay!
I paired my two top pairs of black leggings with lots of tunic length sweaters and a go to black tshirt that I also own in white and purple. I know we are well past Halloween, but I also included a look at what I wore for Halloween. The sweatshirt is so soft and comfy that I’m still wearing it! I need to order another one from this place that’s not seasonal.
My December outfits have been a combo of jeans and leggings, so stay tuned for that one next month. I hope you have a great last week of 2023.

5 Work Dresses for Fall and Winter
My fashion item for 2023 was definitely dresses. They were great during pregnancy to work with a growing bump, and they’ve been perfect post-pregnancy to work on a consistently changing body type as my pregnancy weight slowly falls off.
I wore the spring and summer dresses from my previous post as long as I could before I finally started shopping for some fall dresses. I specifically wanted some work dresses that I could also were to church, holiday events, etc. Most of these dresses will feature a elastic waist band of some sort. I have found this helpful as my body and size is consistently changing. The elastic helps the dress fit longer as my waist size changes. Also a helpful feature if you wear to a dinner. 🙂
All but one of these dresses are under $100. The first is over, but is on sale for Black Friday for 30% off.
I hope you all have a fabulous Thanksgiving. If you are already Black Friday shopping, I hope you are finding some great deals!

These pictures were taken during different stages of pregnancy, hence the bump size difference. I’ve been a big fan of dresses during my pregnancy and wanted a few work friendly dresses. I’ve also worn these dresses to church and dressier events.
Both dresses have the right amount of stretch for a growing bump. I prefer longer midi and maxi dresses during pregnancy with a flowy fit. I find the length and loose fitting style more comfy for sitting comfortably. I’m currently not doing heels as often and love that both of these dress lengths also work with flat shoes.
Long Statement Sleeve Floral Blouse
Long Statement Sleeve Floral Blouse
This long statement sleeve floral blouse has so many fun and pretty details. It’s too good to pass on. Let’s start with my favorite part – these statement sleeves. I love the puffy top paired with the slimmer bottom. The high neckline gives me Victorian Era vibes. The bottom of this top is a cropped elastic hem. This type of hem works great for creating that perfectly tucked in look. It pairs really well with your high waisted pants.
For a dressy causal outfit,I paired this with my dark blue bootcut jeans and brown peep toe booties. The booties linked are the same brand and super similar style. My white earrings were the only jewelry needed to compliment this blouse. I wanted to be sure the details and print stole the show and wasn’t cluttered with jewelry.
