Thread Up Review

I am so excited to bring you all this review.  I have been eyeing thredUP for awhile now and I was so excited to a get a chance to partner with them to try out their stuff! You all know how much I love bargains and fashion.

ThredUp is a modern day consignment store.  You can send in clothes to them to consign [stay tuned for a blog review on this] and you can shop for gently loved items online.  This is seriously such a life saver as a busy mom!

The site is so easy to navigate and search for items you want and need.  I found several wonderful items to add to my fall/winter wardrobe and I am also eyeing a few things for an upcoming Christmas party

I loved how easy everything working into my wardrobe.

  1.  Photo 1: The new item is the Sweat Rain plaid teal blouse.  It is so versatile for the odd winter months we have here in Texas.  I can layer it up or down!
  2. Photo 2: The new items are the black shoes and the black blouse.  The shoes are BCBG and have amazing jewel/pearl accents and the black Equipment blouse is black on black leopard print so you know I had to get it!
  3. Photo 3: Is a black and white stripe Banana Republic shirt.  I had to toss my old one [because it is such a staple piece it was worn out] and I found this one and snagged it!
  4. Photo 4: The new item is the black and white tunic sweater.  It is so easy to throw on with leggings for major comfort and a put together look… totally mom win.  It is Forever 21.

Just for you all use code: GABBINGGINGER. It gives 50% off entire orders to the first 50 people on everything, and is valid till the end of this year. Feel free to spread the word!

I have put together some fun quick links to take you to some of my favorite searches within thredUP.

My First Mother’s Day + Gift Ideas

GabbingGinger

I know, I know. I was a mother when I was pregnant but this year is so special having Tripp in my arms to snuggle and hug(he was born TWO days after Mother’s Day last year). These last few years Mother’s Day has honestly been very sad. It is hard watching so many people celebrate with their mom and you don’t get to do that.

I love that this year has brought new meaning to this holiday. I am so thankful that God chose Tripp to be my little one. He has shown me unconditional love that I have never known. He has taught me to be more carefree and less uptight. He has taught me patience and understanding and that with one little grin that he can get out of a lot of trouble.

I can’t wait to spend this Mother’s Day with my little family. Really that is the best gift of all BUT if you were to ask me some fun gift ideas for moms here is what I would suggest!

Pampering is ALWAYS a good idea for mom so a massage or mani/pedi gift card are safe bets! Click to photos below for direct links!

For the clean freak like me
Roomba

For the techie:
Apple Watch

For the Fashionista
Tory Burch Clutch

For the jewelry lover
Kendra Scott Necklace

For the mom’s who need ALL the coffee
Keurig Rivo Cappuccino and Latte System

LuLaRoe Love

Lauren

Okay y’all; being a mom of a high needs baby [more about that later], I am looking to stay fashionable but comfortable. LuLaRoe has made that SO easy.

They have signature styles that I can easily purchase and add to mix and match into my collection.  The leggings are seriously AMAZEBALLZ. SO soft.

I love that you can stay classic with solids but that they also have fun prints too! Styles range from comfortable to work place classy so there really is something for everyone.

Many pieces work for breastfeeding and could easily transition into pregnancy wardrobe.  WHICH I LOVE.  There are very few “pregnancy” pieces that I purchased because I love things that have more than one use.  This brand is perfect for that!

For those of you unsure about sizing, consultants are great at helping.  For reference I am 5’2″ and about 115-120lbs. Also, for the busty girls I am a DD-DDD just to help you out.

Okay first off here are the leggings.  I am an OS.  I have not tried tween yet but I think I maybe able to wear them. These are what LLR is known for.  They are so soft and flattering!

leggings

The Nicole: This is my favorite dress! It is so flattering but so comfy! Also, it is easy to nurse in. Something that many of my pre-baby dress are NOT.  So this has been a great piece to add to my wardrobe.  I am an XS.

img_5684

The Amelia: Oh this dress is so fun! It has a great zipper detail and you can wear the zipper in the front or the back! It also has pockets!  I am wearing an XS.

img_5906

The Carly: A very comfy and versatile dress.  You can style it a TON of ways.  You can pull this dress off around town with some chucks on or heals for a date night! I am wearing an XXS.

carly

The Cassie: A fun skirt.  Great for work! It has the stretch of leggings but looks so professional.  It is so comfortable too not tight and constricting like most skirts! I am an XS but could do a Small as well.

img_5682

The Lindsay is a fun layering piece since it is a kimono.  This has been perfect for wearing with nursing tops! This is a small.  If they made it in XS I would probably get that but alas they don’t.

The Classic Tee [Left]: Love this shirt to wear with leggings or to rock with a pair of jeans! I am wearing and XS.

The Irma [Right]: A wonderful tunic top.  Can wear a ton of ways! I am wearing an XXS.  I will say I have a few of these and the back length varies a little bit but all are pretty long!

**I also have a maxi skirt not pictured that is an XS.

Here are links to my FAVORITE consultants! Be sure to tell them how you found out about LLR.  If you have questions let me know and I would be happy to help!
