Happy Monday loves! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Our’s was pretty laid back just doing last minute preps before baby comes! I’ve been trying to keep moving to work this baby out, but he seems pretty cozy in there! Hoping this week we will get to meet our little guy! Fingers crossed! So today I have a cute boho outfit that would be perfect for Valentine’s Day! This dress is non maternity, but fits perfect with the bump! It is also on major sale and will be perfect for transitioning into the warmer months! Since it has been pretty chilly I paired it with a black leather jacket and my favorite zip up booties. To add a bit more boho vibes, I accessorized with a hat and round sunnies. I hope you all have a wonderful start to your week! <3

Beach Maternity

Shannon Jenkins of Upbeat Soles shows her intimate beach maternity photoshoot in Palm Coast Florida with Forever 21 satin maxi dress

Happy Thursday babes! Only one more day until the weekend and last week (hopefully) of my pregnancy! So I told you all I would share more from my beach maternity shoot, so here it is! I knew I wanted to do a more intimate shoot with just Griffin and I once I got farther along on the beach so a week after Christmas Griffin and I woke up super early to catch the sunrise. Although, nature had other plans and it was the foggiest morning ever! I was a little upset at first but we just ran with the more moodier look of the photos. I love this shoot since it shows you all more of our creative photographer side that we love. The few shots Griffin are in we actually took with the camera propped up on a box because we forgot our tripod haha! I hope you all love this shoot as much as I do! Ps I am trying to blog up until baby comes so if you see a silence you know he must have made his arrival haha! I will keep my Instagram updated though! I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and t-minus one week, 2 days until my due date! <3

Dark Denim

Shannon Jenkins of Upbeat Soles styles a maternity date night outfit with stretchy tank dress, Levi's grey denim jacket, and black fringe booties

Happy Thursday loves! We are FINALLY almost to the weekend! I swear the weeks are getting long! I don’t know if it’s because I am nearing my due date or it is still the post holiday drag, but I am so ready for the weekend! Last week I received the most amazing package from Storq! I wish I would have discovered them earlier in my pregnancy because all of the items I got are so amazingly comfy! They are perfect too because they are all basics so you can style them so many ways! This tank dress is so adorable and I love the side slits give it a bit of sexiness. The weather was super nice last weekend so I just paired it with a light grey washed denim jacket. To dress it up a tad and make this look perfect for date night, I threw on a pair of fringed booties and then accessorized with this amazing black and gold metal bag that is currently on major sale! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! <3

Happy Monday babes! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! We spent the weekend cleaning the house and just trying to prepare for baby! I cannot believe it but we are officially on baby watch! I am 37 weeks, which is considered term so it’s crazy to think he could be here so soon! We packed our hospital bags and just trying to have as much in order as possible, although I don’t think you can ever feel 100% ready ha! So today might be one of my favorite maternity outfits! This dress is actually NOT maternity either and just looks so cute over a bump (I just sized up). The wrap detailing is so cute! I threw a leather jacket on over it for some extra warmth and to add a bit of edge, and then accessorized with some black zip up booties and hat. I hope you all have a fabulous start to the week! <3

Happy Hump Day babes! Is this week totally dragging for anyone else?! I think this may be the hardest week of the year since it is the first full week back after the holidays and all the Christmas cheer is being taken down. Such a drag! Anyways today I decided to get a little casual. We have been having some as other people would say beautiful weather, but I would prefer it a lot cooler right now! These hot flashes are no joke ya’ll! Since the weather has been so warm I threw on this adorable and super versatile mini dress and then threw over a comfy cardigan for when the evenings get a little chilly. I kept it super casual by throwing on a pair of Van sneakers and favorite black hat. I hope you all have an awesome Tuesday! <3

Winter Wonderland Maternity

Shannon Jenkins of Upbeat Soles shows her Winter Colorado Maternity pictures with Fillyboo I Believe in Unicorns dress at Grand Lake Adams Falls

Happy Friday Eve babes! I don’t know about you but I am so ready for the weekend! So I am super excited to finally share our maternity pictures we took while in Colorado! We pretty much just winged the location and did a bit of research the day before heading up to Steamboat Springs. I originally wanted more mountains, but the hikes were pretty intense to get up there and this preggo is not about that hike life in the freezing cold, so we found this gorgeous creek! We were not expecting it to be covered in the most gorgeous snow ever though! I mean doesn’t it look like a winter wonderland?! We slightly froze during the shoot, but it was totally worth it! Also my cousin took all the pictures of Griffin and I who has no photography experience and cannot believe how amazing they turned out! I can’t thank her enough for baring the cold with us to get these! I love that they are winter themed since Baby J will be a winter baby! Also can we talk about this dress?! It was definitely a splurge but I think it was worth it! I wore it to my baby shower as well to justify the cost haha! I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and I apologize for the picture overload! It was too hard to choose which ones to post! <3
