Classic Style Inspo
There is nothing more satisfying as a mom than when you have a few minutes to actually get ready! This morning, I woke up about 40 minutes before my son and was able to throw on some makeup, do my hair, and put on a cute outfit. By the time he woke up, I was totally ready to go! Although I don’t always get up before my son, I do recommend trying to find some time to put on clothes that make you feel good, run a brush through your hair, and at least put on some sunscreen every single day.
Things I’ve Been Loving: Pantry Storage Containers
I just bought these to organize our pantry and I love them! They are the perfect height for our pull-out shelves and the lids are see-through, so you can actually see everything from above. Hooray!

5 *Attainable and Modest* Fall Fashion Looks!
Hello friends. As I mentioned in my Instagram stories, I will be returning to posting my regular content but please know that nothing is normal for Israel and Jews around the world. Please continue to keep the people of Israel in your prayers.
This past weekend, we got to spend time with both family and friends which was lovely. On Saturday night, we attended a friend’s birthday party - it has been such a long time since Jacob and I have gone out on our own, and it was nice to have some adult time with people from our community! Especially since in just a couple of months, everything will be different again with the new baby in the house.
Sunday was entirely different since we spent it with Jacob’s father who was visiting us! We went to a local petting zoo since Little Man is just reaching the stage of showing a ton of interest in animals. It’s so fun to see him recognize birds, dogs, goats, and bunnies when he sees them. We also got dinner as a family and in the evening we watched the new Elvis film. Have any of you seen it? I had quite a few thoughts on it myself!
In today’s newsletter, I want to share five attainable and modest fall fashion looks. And as it is actually 63 degrees out in Florida today, it feels like a real fall day! I wore boots and everything! So I am definitely feeling excited to talk about autumn style, even if today’s weather is fleeting. Let’s get into it!
Satin Midi Skirt and Boots.
I love this look for fall. It’s such a mixture of hard and soft and it’s so lovely on. I think often people think they need to pair a satin midi skirt with strappy sandals, but actually, ankle boots or sock booties look amazing! Simply finish off the outfit with a sweater tucked up into your bra or taped up with fashion tape (which defines your waist), and voila! You look beautiful and feminine.
Oversized Sweater and Leggings/Skinny Jeans.
The easiest fall look is an oversized sweater and leggings/skinny jeans! All you have to do is throw on a cute sweater you love - there are about a million options on Amazon! - and something slimmer on the bottom to balance out the volume on top. As a pregnant mama, this look is an absolute go-to for me. Wearing something easy and comfortable is important for me as I’m chasing around a toddler and carrying around another human inside me! But even when I’m not pregnant, it’s nice to have a cute and easy outfit to put on at a moment’s notice and still feel fashionable and modest. (Of course, make sure that your sweater covers your bum if you’re wearing leggings!)
Fall Dress and Jean Jacket.
I love me a fall dress, but sometimes when it’s a bit cooler out, you’ll want to wear something to keep you warm. A jean jacket is the perfect solution and it looks good on everyone! Jean jackets are an amazing staple in anyone’s wardrobe because they make your outfit a bit more casual, yet look nicer than a sweatshirt or zip-up.
Chelsea Boots and Wide-Legged Pants.
This is a bit more trendy, but I’ve got to say, I’ve been loving this look. Wide-legged pants are very in and if you find the right cut for you, they can be incredibly flattering and modest. Pairing them with a Chelsea boot is a great way to stay comfortable, warm, and on trend. Just make sure if you wear a flat Chelsea boot that the hem of your pants touches the top of your shoe, otherwise it has the potential to make you look shorter than you are.
Sweater Vest over Dress.
Looking to transition your summer clothes into fall? Throw on a sweater vest! You can find cropped sweater vests, oversized sweater vests, button-downs, or just standard sweater vests. Choose whatever works with your body and is most flattering to you, then accessorize your outfit to your heart’s content.
Vote On This Month’s Book Club Selection!
This month we are reading fiction (we switch up month-to-month) and we are going to do a poll to choose our selection! The first book is The Midwife by Tricia Cresswell which was suggested by one of YOU, a premium subscriber. The second option is The Keeper of Lost Things by Ruth Hogan. Choose the book you’d be more interested in reading this month, and I’ll announce our selection next week!
I haven’t watched your fashion video yet but the small house one really struck a chord with me! We really downsized from our home in VA to the home we’re building in CO! It’s also going to be a 3 br, with one of those BRs serving as a guest room/office. The open concept plan was a huge selling point for me so that the life of the home is all happening in one cozy room, and I can cook in the kitchen while baby girl (and hopefully more babies in a few years) can play all in the main living space. We unfortunately do have to do some childproofing because you do have to go upstairs to get to the actual living space in the house, even though downstairs is just a closet, front door, and garage. I love how it forces you to be intentional with your stuff--clutter is an enemy of Shalom bayis! I’m so excited to get into our new space :)
I want to read both!! The keeper of lost things sounds lovely!
