Is it any surprise that my favorite movie is Breakfast at Tiffany’s? I know, I know. It’s A LOT of women’s favorite movie, but seriously, I love that movie.
I love that quote from the movie because I feel like, especially lately, that happens to me all the time. One second it’s Monday and the next second it’s Thursday. Sometimes I think Thursday is actually the worst day of the week because it’s a huge tease for Friday and the weekend.
Last week, on Thursday, I had no idea it was Thursday. I honestly went the entire day thinking it was Tuesday. And then THIS week, on Tuesday, I went the entire day thinking it was Thursday. What is wrong with me?
I don’t even know if I can blame it on pregnancy brain. I think it’s just Molly brain and Molly brain is behind a few steps.
Molly brain! It can’t be! It’s too too gruesome! Or something.
AH! But you know what is NOT gruesome? These jeans. Or flowers and stripes together. Nope. Not gruesome in the slightest.
For real. These jeans have pretty much changed my pregnancy style life. I had purchased a few pairs of maternity jeans from a consignment shop and they were just awful. They didn’t fit right, they were uncomfortable, and just plain wretched. But then I went into Motherhood Maternity and said with a bit of desperation, “HELP ME” to the sweet associate and she put me in these and wow. Best. $40. Ever. Spent. Seriously.
Take note preggo ladies and future preggo ladies – shell out $40 for a good pair of maternity jeans. You will not regret it.
Anywho. I’m all over the place today.
Enjoy your gruesome Thursday! 🙂
Love the flowers and stripes together!! And those earrings are adorable!
I’m putting your tip about jeans in my back pocket. 🙂
I have to totally agree on the jeans. They were my wisest pregnancy splurge at the beginning of my walk down pregnant lane. Of course, I am now past the maternity clothes stage and at the Dear Lord, he’s coming soon and I don’t remember how this all works stage. (It’s been 18 yrs since I had my last baby. Remarried. Second family, blah, blah, blah…).
As for pregnancy brain, it exists and only gets worse. 🙂 I have yet to get through a week and actually know what day it is.
God’s blessings to you and your little one!
aw laurie you’re going to be GREAT!! thank you for your sweet comment!
Love your outfit today. It’s super cute. Glad you found a pair of good maternity jeans for a good price.
THanks for your advice about the purse. I think i’ll pass. HOpefully i can find something as nice, because I love the color and the bow.

Molly, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your blog but would you consider a mobile friendly format? Your blog comes up so tiny on my phone.
hey lisa! that’s actually something i’ve been working on – i just installed a mobile version, take a look and let me know if the images and text come up larger 🙂 thank you!
I think the floral print is perfect for spring. Beautiful pictures and lovely outfit. Congrats 🙂

thank you so much, anca!
Thank you for the shout out! So pretty how you photographed the earrings 🙂
By the way…I agree…red looks amazing on you & love the pop of red lips! Perfect combo of stripes & floral it looks like they were supposed to be worn that way!
yay! anytime, sandra! so glad you liked!!! thank you so much, girl.
Yes sista! Those jeans are the best! I just went ahead and bought 2 pair and one pair of black skinnies from Motherhood and those three pants have literally gotten me through every day of pregnancy. It is so worth it!
yes! they are the most amazing things EVER.
The florals and stripes together is SO cute…one of my favorite looks from you! It’s a good feeling when you think it’s the beginning of the week and then you realize that the week is almost over. I usually think Thursdays are really Fridays…wishful thinking 🙂

thank you so much, sharon! and yes! i totally know what you mean. such a tease for the weekend!
I love this pairing Molly! And that you opening the post with a Breakfast at Tiffany’s quote–one of my favorite movies!
🙂 yay! thank you so much, alyssa!
Great advice! I would definitely be the girl at the consignment shop. You look beautiful.
yeah – i definitely consign other maternity stuff, but i’ve now learned to just go for the motherload so to speak on the jeans.
Oh, how I love stripes and floral prints together. It’s like they were made to be. You look great in these colors, Molly! Loving the bright lipstick on you!
thank you so much, lauren!
Looking super cute!! And by the way, I’m coveting your red purse!
thank you so much, meagan!
Holly always knew what she was talking about. 🙂
( even when no one else did )
Now I want to go watch it.
#TRUTH. now i want to watch it, too.
It’s true…you won’t regret getting a great pair of maternity jeans.
Thursdays always sneak up on me as well!! Ahh!!
i really wish i had known earlier in my pregnancy and i don’t think i would have been as frustrated getting dressed. 🙂 LOL!
Love the look!! FYI, Kohls usually sells the motherhood jeans for way cheaper! The maternity section is hidden behind the baby stuff, but they sell a lot of the basics for way cheaper.
oooo GREAT tip, meghan!! thank you so much!
Ditto on the maternity jeans thing…girl, I think that you are truly in love with that purse! 🙂 It’s adorable. the bow is just too cute!
heheh thank you so much, stephanie!
I love this Molly! Red is definitely your color! I love that you mixed the patterns, and that bag is fab! Your baby bump is getting big, are you getting excited? Do you know what it is yet? (did I miss if you announced it). I really, really, want to be a mommy, so I love watching everyone else’s journey 🙂
