I'm a firm believer that good accessories can make you love any outfit.
Because this outfit was preeeeetty boring until I threw this cute floral scarf on! Also, I've been wearing these shoes like they're going out of style. Do yourself a favor at get some cute booties for fall because cute shoes always make you feel good. That's my experience at least! Especially when I'm preggo and not fitting well in any clothes... shoes really make me feel good. Also, pockets in dresses. That is all.
Hope you all had a fun weekend! We celebrated my little guy's 2nd birthday with strawberry cake and a train set that he can't stop playing with. I can't believe that little one is two! He is seriously the best and we had lots of fun celebrating his day of birth.
I also learned how to make french macarons! The notoriously finicky little cookie that everyone oggles over on instagram (...guilty). I love them and have gotten them at the farmers market a couple times, but soon there will be no more farmers market! What would I do?! So I took on this little baking challenge and found a cute little recipe book for macarons, googled tips for making them, and tried my hand at it. They didn't all turn out perfect because I'm really not great at making them the same size. But I was proud of my efforts the first time around! I plan to keep trying and eventually perfect them so everyone can oggle at my macaron instagram photos.
like this one.
p.s. you should probs follow my instagram account because I post a lot over there! Bump-updates, pictures of cookies, pictures of my cute child... all little nuggets of fun.
Have a fab Monday!

That scarf definitely brightens up the outfit and those are cute booties. Perfect for fall. I tried making macarons a few times. The first time wasn't so bad but the second and third times were not so great. I guess it was beginner's luck that first time! ~Cynthia | www.myrosecoloredshades.com
