This will be my last what I wore for the next few weeks. I hear that after this surgery I won't be making it out of bed for a couple of weeks never mind making it out of the house. Oh and for those that are curious it seems my body did not think too kindly to having two babies close together. In short my insides are trying to make there way out so they are going to put them all back where they go. Lovely isn't it? Anyway, back to the outfits at hand...
Oxfords: Steve Madden
Shorts and Top: J.Crew. Oh, and this striped top I bought years ago and somewhat started my stripe obsession. If only you saw my closet you would laugh with all the stripes.
Necklace: Anthropolgie. I am trying to be better with accessories. I thought this piece was a good start.
Sunglasses: T.J. Maxx
Dress: had for years maybe T.J. Maxx
Shoes: Chinese Laundry found at Ross
Necklace: Anthropologie. Love it so much I want to wear it everyday.
top: Gap last year or two ago?
shorts: J.Crew
shoes: Chinese Laundry. It seems I repeated quite a bit this week.
belt: Anthropologie
Now to Ellie's dress. This is Ellie's new favorite dress so much so that she never wants to take it off. She has also claimed it to be her birthday party dress because she looks so pretty in it and really I must agree. Ellie is a hard fit she is very thin but also tall. Most dressed swallow her whole or are too short. This dress fits her perfectly. The key is the way the straps tie, they can be any length you choose. She will be able to wear this dress for years. When she eventually gets too tall a pair of leggings would work and look cute.
The dress is from Hijkids. My new go to shop for extra special pieces that are slightly different from what every other child is wearing. Remember this cute number? Another gorgeous dress from this super cute shop.

I have really enjoyed this feature Paula and will look forward to its return.
Wishing you the very best with, what sounds like, your fairly major surgery. Take it steady recovering and I will send you get well wishes and prayers.

Oh, you poor thing. I birthed 21 lbs of child in 22 months (and I only have two kids) so I feel your pain. Rest easy. Get a cute bed jacket and take a picture of yourself in it with your new necklace.
Elle's dress is precious! You could totally copy that when you are feeling better...
I love the belted look. I've been wanting to try it...but haven't yet.
Hope the surgery goes well and that the recovery is easier than expected.
OH... I love that maxi dress. So gorgeous on you!
Best wishes for a speedy recovery! I'll be thinking of you!
I will certainly miss your outfits and will say a little prayer for you. I am loving my Franco Sarto sandals that you shared. Thanks.

Good luck with the surgery! My mom just had some similar done ... She did really well. As far as recovery, she was out for a few weeks; slow for a few weeks after that; then back to normal!
Love the TJ MAXX dress!
Good luck with surgery, prayers said. And I love these posts, they inspire me actually wear all the clothes in my closet as opposed to the same tunic top and J. Crew shorts everyday!
Good luck with your surgery - I hope all goes well!
Oh lady, I'm so sorry about your insides and the surgery and all. I sure hope you are feeling better soon. Here is to a very quick and easy recovery. Be well.
And LOVE the necklace.
Oh Paula, that sounds awful! I'm so sorry and wishing you a speedy recovery.
Ellie's outfit is beyond adorable.
I wish you lots of rest and God speed on a fast recovery. Those kids do wreak havoc on our bodies, huh? So worth it. You take care!! Julie
Sending lots of good wishes for a speedy recovery. I'm sure you will be back to your old/new self in no time.
You and your kids dress SO cute! I love your outfit in the last photo. I'll miss your "What I Wore"s in the coming weeks but I hope your surgery goes well and you recover quickly! Have a happy 4th!
lovely style as always. and i pray your surgery goes smoothly with a quick recovery!
love her dress!
I was actually at the JCrew outlet last week in Hilton Head and thought of all of your cute outfits. I need a stylist
thinking of you! maybe wearing your chic anthro necklace in bed will make recovery a bit glam?!

Wishing you a great 4th, a speedy recovery and something cute and comfy to wear in bed!

Love the pics and I'm sorry to hear about your insides :( All the best for a speedy recovery and that the good doctors get your insides all back where they belong. Look forward to your posts when you return :) Best, best wishes!
Wishing you well and hope all goes great with your surgery. Great photos of the weekend - love the colour of your bathing suit. Adore little Ellie's dress in the last post too.
Loving all your outfits, as well as Ellie's adorable and very 4th of July appropriate dress!
lovely photos from the weekend. you are in my prayers with the surgery and recovery.
Good luck with the Surgery Paula! Hope everything goes well, and will miss the piece. also Ellie's dress is so adorable!
I love your blog. I wanted to let you know my mom had a similiar surgery last year and her recovery went great. She feels much better now having everything back where it's supposed to be. I hope all goes well with you.

i love Ellie's dress! so, so cute!
and great necklace lady...you are rockin the accessories ;-)
you're both so gorgeous and stylish. can i be style jealous of a child so young?! eek, i am. wishing you a safe surgery; wishing you a speedy recovery; and wishing you behaving, listening, helpful children for the next few months x
I hope you recover super quick from your surgery!! We will miss the what you wore series, but your health is much more important :)
Good luck with your sugery! The same thing happened to my Mum. I wish you all the best.
Rest up, okay?
x Jasmine
PS. Adorable photos! My little sister is really tall (I totally missed out on those genes! I'm short as!), so finding clothes to fit is hard, but she's not skinny like Ellie, she's super muscular from all the sports she does. So tall and broad makes girly kids clothes a hard find!
LOVE the TJMaxx dress! So elegant, yet fun :)
You get well now lovely...even thought he doctors will be putting parts of you back together..YOU are what keep your little family together..and they will be missing their mummy..and wife.
Sending big hugs your way and wishing you a speedy recovery sweetheart XOXOX
