Maternity Shift Dress

Here's one of our last Maternity looks for you. Why? Because DESIRAE HAD HER BABY THIS PAST FRIDAY!!! Let's just say she's super excited (and sort of out of it) at the moment. Oh, and Melody has to tell you that the little girl is so beautiful. It makes her very much a gushing aunt. We could go on and on about everything, but we won't kill you with the details. Suffice it to say that all is well.

So, on to the look. This was one of Desirae's go-to dressier maternity looks. And we have to admit that both of us feel very partial to dresses for maternity. We're not gonna lie, skirts just start to look weird since they're either hiked up way high, or pulled down way low. So Desirae stuck to dresses for most of her maternity.  This one just happened to already be in her closet and worked since it was a mod-fit shift dress (want something similar? we are LOVING this one). Ok, so these are the shoes we've been in love with lately. We fell in love because they looked so much like the Fendi shoe we were seeing at the beginning of the season.  And now you can get ours pictured majorly on sale. Quite the steal. We love them. You might also remember us talking about this black and gold shoe all the way back with the look Marion Cotilliard wore? Well now you can also get the beautiful Ralph Lauren heels she wore on sale. We say you should take a look....

The Delevignes

Yeah. Let's just say they're pretty cool. There's Poppy up top and Cara down below. So Melody posted a pic on instagram of her incredibly ripped jeans and how it's time to retire them. And then she sees this picture of Poppy and now she's unsure. Should she keep the jeans? 

LOVELY ERDEM

Yes. Erdem Pre-fall 2013. Such Beautiful clothing. We think the Duchess will most definitely show up wearing some of these. I think one of our favorites is the floral dress in the first picture. So cool.

NEW YEAR'S SNOWSHOEING

So here's a bit of a lifestyle diversion (since this is not terribly fashion related). Before we say anything, sadly we said goodbye to our camera lens yesterday. We were so sad, that there was almost a burial for the poor buddy. So although we didn't get any high quality pictures while snowshoeing yesterday (you can see some phone pics though if you follow us on instagram), it reminded us of the other times we've gone snowshoeing. First off, you gotta have a workable pair of snowshoes (here are some similar to ours). You gotta also have a pretty good snow boot to put inside those snowshoes (the Ugg Celiste boot worked perfectly for Melody yesterday). And lastly you may wanna bring some binocs. Wonder what Melody was looking at? Yep, those are bald eagles. You never know what you'll see when you snowshoe....

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year from Thread Ethic!
Hope you're night is going to be as spectacular as ours!

RED PLAID SWEATSHIRT

Yep, this is a men's red buffalo plaid sweatshirt (SUPER comfy and SUPER warm). Melody paired it under her thinner blue plaid H&M coat and topped it off with her fur ear flap hat (where she cannot remember for the life of her where she got it) and Ray Ban glasses.  And there you go! An easier winter go-to outfit for you.
