Springtime Stripes

Stripes are in! Seaside stripes are a trend for 2017 and I’m into it. So today while we were exploring New York City, I thought I would rock this trend.  New York is after all, all about staying up to date with fashion trends. But there was no way I way rocking black while in the Big City! I love a little color, especially around Spring time!

So today I am wearing this $14 (YEP. ONLY $14!) navy striped top. This top is such a great deal. The fabric is on the stiffer side, but I kind of like this for the style I am going for – a Nantucket feel. I am wearing a size medium, but I think I could have gone with the small. The medium works for tying it around my waste, but it’s slightly big when it’s not tied. So size down with this one! However, get your true size if you are pregnant. It’s actually a great top for a mommy-to-be who is 6 months pregnant or less since it’s loose around the middle and bottom. See me wearing THIS super cute “weekend” top and THIS lips top from the same online store. So you could get all three and save on shipping 🙂 Oh and this top is breastfeeding friendly, and that’s been super helpful!

I paired the top with my go-to white jeans, which I’ve been wearing a TON lately. And my go-to white chucks! My cross-body bag is also a purse I’ve been carrying a TON lately. I like to show you guys how I style things multiple ways. It’s not realistic to buy new clothes EVERY day so if you buy something I post about, I want you to see different ways to style it! See me carrying this cross-body bag HERE and HERE too. Jewelry details below the first pic!

Anyway, Molly is enjoying her first time in NYC. She was at Rockefeller Center today and has lots of fans wherever we go. Everyone loves a cute little baby 😉 It’s been a little chilly, so I had to wear a jacket over this outfit today (not pictured). But the sun has been shining and overall it’s been a great day! We fly back to LA tomorrow. Quick trip!

  1. Hi Ali! Would you have any tips for staying in a hotel with baby? Going to be traveling and unsure of how to handle the sleeping arrangements. Also, don’t want it to be lights out for mommy and daddy at 730 pm! Any tips you may have are appreciated! Safe travels!

    1. I’ve never had a problem just letting my baby sleep in a playpen (bring your own or often hotels have them available). Bring your own blanket to cover the hotel’s playpen mattress though, if you want to know baby is cuddling something clean! I usually just try to place the playpen in the darkest corner of the room, sometimes even partly in the closet helps to keep the light out of the playpen. Otherwise, hanging a blanket along the side of the playpen can help keep the light out. Just make sure it’s hung in a way that it can’t fall into or be pulled into the playpen by accident. A white noise app on my phone helps let baby sleep in the evening while the tv is on. Good luck! 🙂

  2. Is that site where you purchased your top legit? Im a little nervous ordering from these over seas clothing sites.
