Floral Crochet Lace Dress






I love the elegance of a nude, lace dress. I've always been drawn to this classic and sophisticated style of dress. This one, from Chicwish, reminds me of something the Duchess Kate would wear, don't you think? (Side note: I usually always still call her Kate Middleton. It just seems a little more natural to say that, you know?) I was thinking of getting a cute little fascinator or head-piece to match this dress for the times when me and my toddlers watch horse races or host the Queen (totally joking! haha). But that would be very Kate Middleton, for sure. I have to say, while this dress isn't quite knee-length (therefore, being long enough to host the Queen), I really do like the length of this one. It's short enough to feel youthful, but long enough to feel appropriate. And the fit is really good too. Fitted enough to show your figure, without being too tight. This one will be a go-to for years to come, I'm sure!

So, now that the hustle of the Christmas season is over, I'm thinking about the New Year ahead, and my goals for our family and for myself. Ross and I have been eating cleaner and working out more already, so I'm excited to have a jump-start on my fitness goals for 2019. I plan to up my workouts even more, and continue to eat clean (which will be so much easier once all the Christmas chocolate and cookies are out of the house!). I recently got some new workout clothes, so I'm ready to put those to use and see what I can achieve now that the kids (mostly) sleep through the night. It's amazing how much more motivated I feel once I've gotten enough sleep! I plan to make 2019 one of the healthiest years of my life, and never look back. Here's to goals and achieving them! 
Thank you guys so much for being here, and I hope you have a lovely weekend!
