BabyMoon Essentials

Colorful-Baby-Moon-Angel-Graphic

So next week, the hubs and I will be embarking on a much deserved BabyMoon. What is that, you ask? Well, it’s a new trend where couples take a vacation during pregnancy – similar to a honeymoon. As my pregnancy progresses, I realized I hadn’t gone on vacation since right before I found out I was pregnant and I’m really needing one more than ever. My feet have grown sore and I’m pretty tired on a constant basis. The idea of just laying around being pampered by the sea sounds exactly like what I need right now.

We’ll be heading to The Florida Keys for 4 days to do exactly that. Now it’s not the easiest vacation to dress for since I’m expanding a little more these days, so I thought I’d help out other expectant moms and just travelers in general with some great beach essentials for those upcoming summer getaways.

Now this is an area that you can really play with even when pregnant. It may be difficult to find really cute and fun pieces to wear, but it’s a free for all when it comes to accessories! Since we are going the beach route, I wanted to make sure I had a little brightness and silliness. No one takes themselves too seriously on the beach – much less in The Keys.

What I Wore: Tropical Paradise

We’re pretty lucky in Miami. If we drive an hour south, we arrive in The Florida Keys, which is basically paradise. Nothing but blue skies and clear water where time just seems to stop. It’s my absolutely favorite place to be because I can disconnect from all my worries and stressors. The hubs and I haven’t been able to spend any time alone together lately, so it was nice to have a date day in such a beautiful setting.

The occasion obviously called for neons and floral prints. This summer I’m kind of obsessed with high-waisted shorts in loud patterns, so you may see these in many future posts. Sorry, I’m not sorry.

What I Wore: Impromptu Getaway

Although my week had a lot of high’s, there were quite a few low’s as well. It was stressful and I was pretty sure the end was nowhere in sight, so when the light that was Friday evening strolled around, I was ready to just relax. I had mentioned on Facebook that I wanted to lay out on a beach and do nothing, but I knew that wasn’t going to be possible. I had a lot of things on my agenda for the weekend, basically leaving me no time to just sit back and relax so I decided to take things into my own hands. Sometimes what you really need to do is cancel all your plans and take an impromptu mental health day. And I did just that.

I grabbed the hubs, we piled into the Cube and we made our way down to The Florida Keys. It was a gorgeous day, and we spent it admiring the scenery, looking at boats we will never be able to afford, drinking girly drinks (yum) and eating seafood (lobster to be exact – double yum) while ocean side. It was a beautiful and perfect escape – I highly recommend doing the same every now and then. Life is too short to not sit back and enjoy it sometimes.
