What I wore in Las Vegas

Last week, Kevin and I snuck off to Las Vegas to celebrate our 10-year wedding anniversary.  It was our first vacation in over a year and the first time we left both kids overnight anywhere.  It was a much-needed getaway for us after this long pandemic year. Today I want to share a little about our trip and what I wore in Las Vegas!

Cozy, Casual Real Life Stay-At-Home Mom Outfits

January 4, 2021 by Katie Haller

Cozy, casual outfits

If 2020 taught me anything at all, it’s that you can never have enough loungewear.  Between being a stay-at-home-mom, spending half the year pregnant, and then going through a global pandemic, my wardrobe has officially shifted to the casual side.  Leggings, joggers, and slippers are my new go-to daily clothes.  I do miss wearing jeans and getting ready to go somewhere every day, but I just don’t feel the motivation to get out of my cozy clothes any time soon.  That doesn’t mean that I’m not going to put together cute cozy outfits.  Just because you are wearing loungewear all day, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t still feel cute and put together.

 It’s been a while since I’ve rounded up my outfits and shared them in a blog post.  The truth is, it’s been a while since I’ve loved all the outfits that I wore.  It’s going on 4 months since I gave birth and I’m so happy that I am starting to feel like my old self again.  My clothes are fitting and even though things aren’t exactly where I’d like them to be, I feel good in my clothes again and that’s what matters.  I could probably go on and on about postpartum weight loss and fall clothes and how wearing a cute outfit makes my day, but today I’m going to try to make this post short and I’ll just get to the outfits for now.
