[...] the fashion advice Audrey from Momgenerations gave me a while back? I know I promised a follow up video. However, I had to put that off for a bit since I am now [...]

Great video, Mercedes. It takes a lot to go out and just ask for advice like that – you’re brave!

Your little boy is adorable. So sweet!!

I think a conclusion video is a terrific idea – I’d love to see the “new and improved” you! I’m not a mom but unemployed right now and have totally fallen into the no-makeup, all yoga attire mode. Actually the yoga attire is a step up from my earlier sweatpant phase, at least…

Thank you guys!
That was really a lot of fun to do and what I like is that it is up to me to find a good deal on the pieced and that I can do well.

I will update, I promise.

What a great post. Thank you. I also have been a SAHM for about 15 years now and I will spend money on my family, but not me. Often I will browse second hand shops but am at a loss as to what to purchase! I will definitely go to her site! Have fun and PLEASE do post a follow-up video!

Hi Mercedes,

Thanks for doing this! I can get WAGS deals all day long and have a closet of toothpaste and pasta and everything else to show for it- but when it comes to decorating the house, making myself look decent etc.. That is where I REALLY need help pinching pennies. She has some cute ideas but frankly a $40 t-shirt for maternity wear is out of the question for me so I can’t wait to see what you come up with. I prefer to call my new mommy wardrobe a glimpse at the clearance rack

that was awesome Mercedes! How fun. I am in the same boat as far as casual clothing. When I saw your video I was definitely thinking that dark colors would look great on you. Especially a dark chocolate brown. Have fun adding new pieces! What conferences are you going to? I was thinking about trying to go to one, but it would have to be summer, to work around my husband’s schedule.
