Some of My Favorite Picks from H&M’s High Summer 2011 Collection

H&M has released their Summer 2011 collection, and I love so many pieces that have been included. I’m not sure if any of you have been following the “color blocking” trend, but it’s basically coordinating outfits using various vibrant colors together. Well, this line features so many pieces that would work perfectly for color blocking and piecing together some really great styles. Here are some of my favorite pieces:

I love the detailing and layered look of this hot pink shirt. It would go great with a cute blazer and nude pumps.

I’ve been looking around for some red pants and these are ideal because of the cut, as well as the huge bow detailing on the front.

I’m a big fan of blazers, and I absolutely love the bright blue color of this one!

I’ve been looking for some cute maxi dresses, but can’t seem to find any that I really like. This one is simple enough, yet bold and detailed.

The collection will be available in H&M stores from April through July. I can’t wait to check these out!

BIG NEWS

It’s been awhile since I last updated my tumblr. I’ve been really busy lately juggling work, a few other projects, and preparing for the arrival of my BABY! Yes, I said it. Needless to say, I’m overly excited about being a mama and I can’t wait. I’m 5 months now, and a lot of people have been telling me that I’m still pretty small. I have a bit of a baby bump now, but it’s not super noticeable. Overall, I’ve had a great experience with pregnancy. I didn’t really get any morning sickness. I was nauseous and really tired in the first trimester, but it’s been pretty smooth sailing in my second trimester. Here’s a little 5 month update:

- No longer tired ALL THE TIME

- Boobs are growing (Positive!)

- Butt and thighs are growing

- No stretch marks (yet)

- It’s a BOY!

- I have a little more energy now that I’m in my second trimester

- I’ve been craving Mexican food, big salads and fruit lately
