Secrets in the Shade

…. And i’m back with  my first post pregnancy outfit ! As you guys can see .. I still have a bit of a belly.  To be honest, I didn’t know what to expect after I gave birth.  Call me oblivious, but I thought I would lose my belly weight right away, but i’ve now realized that it actually takes time (like everything else in life!). As you can see, it currently looks similar to how my belly was in my first trimester. Although I do want to get my fitness on right away, my priority right now is to eat healthy and to nurse Chloe! The past 3 weeks has been exhaustingly amazing, and although i’ve been running on 2-3 hours of sleep, i’ve never been happier. It’s been intense & exhausting, but a total cliche in that it’s magical.

Lots have changed, and I can’t wait to update you all on my life changes in the next few posts, but the most obvious one? TIME! I’ve always wished there was more time during the day so I can get more done, but now? some extra time so I could simply use the restroom..is that too much to ask for?? HA! So as you can imagine there is  barely any time for me to do my hair or makeup, so I’ve basically been living in hats when I go out! I mentioned before (HERE) that I love wide brim fedoras, but I especially love this Eugenia Kim hat for its feminine quality and the metallic band.  Add a pop of red on the lips and no one will know that I’ve developed huge under eyes due to my lack of sleep! ( My secret formula to looking extra chic when tired… oversized hats + red lips!)

Anyways I hope you all have an amazing Monday, and if you guys have any tips on postpartum recovery please let me know in the comment section below!
