likes + shares + outfit post this first week postpartum {seven quick takes}

1. Happy one week old, baby Lucas! I am still typing his birth story. It will be published soon. We are all adjusting being a family of seven. Lucy is having the hardest time. She is loving on the baby but wants to cuddle and be held when we are holding Lucas. I am not surprised with her actions. She's still a baby and the transition is going to be a process.

2. To hide those dark circles: wear mirrored sunglasses. These are the ones I am wearing (sold out, but found on eBay). I got a new pair, much cheaper {only $12!} and will be featured here on another blog post. New pair comes in 2 colors, metallic and burgundy. I got the metallic which is more rose gold.

3. For my pregnant mamas out there...
This is for your postpartum bottom ~ so refreshing and cooling. GET ONE NOW. you will thank me.

4. My feet and fingers are more swollen a week postpartum compared to the last days of pregnancy. I did not want to deal looking for sandals that would be comfortable right now. so flipflops it is.
These ones I am wearing here are nearing the end of life. I got this pair and this pair. I am definitely a REEF-fan.

5. who else is crazy about rose gold? is it just me? I love my watch and bracelet set.
Here are my other picks:
Macy's pick 1
Macy's pick 2
Kohl's

I am into big watches now though... so that's my only complaint. These sets carry the small watch frames.

6. How about florals?
Florals are everywhere. I got the dress I wore from Mother's day at the ShopBop sale. These floral pants that are two sizes up were from my early spring haul while I was still pregnant. Perfect for my pouchy belly right now.

If you can splurge on some silk floral dresses - KSNY and MK and TB will sell floral dresses in silk.

7. Who gets excited when a pretty and affordable shirt comes in 100% cotton? these shirts are few and far between. I get sad that contemporary designers will sell polyester for their "nicer" items.

Anyway, back to this awesome shirt. It's lightweight. It's 100% cotton and I did not splurge on it. It was a great buy!

mine is still available.
but here are other picks:
pick 1 - off shoulder
pick 2 - v neck, long sleeve
pick 3 - one shoulder, ruffle trim

all picks are 100% cotton!
