Anti-Trump Boycott Targets Retailers That Sell Trump-Branded ProductsPresident-elect Donald Trump and his family business is being targeted by an online boycott that is calling for shoppers to avoid supporting retailers that sell Trump-branded products.Before the election, marketing consultant Shannon Coulter launched the boycott, using the hashtag #GrabYourWallet. Some Twitter users have been expressing support of a move to avoid spending money at a handful of retailers that sell goods branded under Trump's name or the name of his daughter Ivanka. Coulter is the owner-founder of a San Francisco marketing company, according to her Linkedin profile,The boycott calls out 32 companies—including Trump-owned or branded Trump Hotels, Trump Winery and Trump Golf Courses.Switching my pinned Tweet to the always-up-to-date version of the #GrabYourWallet boycott Trump list: https://t.co/OQ1dgwZQFE- Shannon Coulter (@shannoncoulter) November 10, 2016Other notable retailers on the list include Bed Bath & Beyond (bbby)

For example, Macy's last year dropped Donald Trump's clothing line but still continues to sell items from his daughter's collection.shabby chic shower curtains rachel ashwellThe list steered by Coulter also includes a handful of companies that have been supportive of Trump's presidency. paris shower curtain by izolaThose companies include New Balance, which is facing a backlash after backing Trump over his opposition to the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement, and Yuengling—whose owner backed Trump shortly before the election.laura ashley neisha fabric cheapest price

The reason these boycotts are surfacing is because of the comments the president-elect has made throughout the campaign (and many before the campaign) that are purportedly racist, sexist and offensive to many other groups of people. The #GrabYourWallet, in particular, was launched after a 2005 video surfaced, showing Donald Trump boasting of groping women, including grabbing their p---y.blue curtain falls sark? cevirisiIn general, retailers want to avoid controversy. tatty teddy curtains nextBut many are still partners with his daughter Ivanka, who was a close adviser to her father throughout the campaign and supportive of his election aspirations. brer rabbit curtainsThough some polls of American consumers speculate many are interested in shunning the Trump brand, there hasn't yet been a high-profile example of a retailer lamenting that their relationship with the Trumps has dented sales.red curtains 46x90

Another beautiful day to get inspired by decorating. Today I wanted to share with you all the amazing drapes and curtains I found online for less that $60! I know when I go into stores like Macy’s or even Bed Bath and Beyond that is rarely the case that I will find a panel set for less than $60. Here I am on the blog today dishing some fabulous finds that I hope you can agree are pretty spectacular. I am also in the market for some new window treatments for my new home, hence the inspiration to write this article. As all of you know I am a lady on a budget and I love researching deals on home decor. If you haven’t seen other home decor that I have researched check out these posts… Get ready to nab these deals before they are sold out! 2. Luxurious Medallion Print Curtain Panels Window Drapes 11. Lush Decor Avon Window Curtain 15. Duck River Textiles Phelan Blackout Grommet Pair 2. Venetian Damask Flock Faux Silk Curtain Panel 3. Sedgewick Medallion Linen Blend Grommet Top Window Panels

You can make it work, it just takes a little time, research, and creativity.{Shirt: Gap (old - not maternity!) - sim, Shell: KikiRiki, Skirt: A Pea in the Pod (old) - sim, Hat: J.Crew Factory (old) - sim, Sunnies, Necklace: Gift from D - love this version!, Shoes, Bracelets: J.Crew Factory (old) - sim, INPINK - c/o (old) - sim, Francescas (old) - sim, J.Crew, Lips: Damned} As promised, (admit it, the anticipation was killing you!) from my Not-So-Secret Secret post: guidelines for maternity dressing sans maternity clothing (for the most part). I've really only focused on tops since most of my skirts are maternity. I had no problem purchasing some basic skirts to get me through my entire pregnancy and I wear them everyday. I rotate between a couple different denim (a more casual light wash and a darker, dressier wash), a couple structured knee-length black skirts and several fitted knit skirts both colored and black.

I know a lot of people like the loose fold-over waist knit skirts, but those are the kind I wear to they gym and therefore I can't wear them as 'real clothes'. But that's just me...nothing against them for those who like 'em :) 1. Tunic-style tops can be your best friend! However, now is NOT the time for the big, flowy, muumuu versions (even if you're the type who can wear those normally without looking like a tent). Stick to more fitted ones, obviously staying within your comfort zone. Fun patterns and embellishments are always a plus and can help camouflage an early pregnancy and the extra length will be necessary to cover the bump as it grows. Try to steer clear of empire waists - these can make week 8 look like month 8...yikes! Make sure there is room for a growing belly, so size up a size if you need to. Thanks to recent trends, oversized shirts have been in style for the past few years so you'll be able to wear these post baby...always a plus :) With fall approaching, tunics are now everywhere so this is a great time for dressing a pregnant belly.

With so many options out there, you can keep your same pre-pregnancy style or step outside your comfort zone and experiment dressing your new body! Look for tunics with cute pockets, casual stripes, mixed textures, bold patterns, subtle details, edgy, colorful, or keep it simple and neutral :) 2. Cardigans - wear 'em now, wear 'em later! The great thing about cardigans is that you don't (necessarily) have to size up, so these will stand the test of time in your closet. A couple of maternity tanks (embellishments like this or this add extra interest to an otherwise bland tank) or blouses (solid, print, basic) will help you get great mileage out of cardis. Making sure that everything can mix and match will give you tons of different looks with only a few of each type of piece. Plus cardis can do double duty once you have the baby to layer over nursing tanks (let's be honest, clothing designed for nursing is just plain ugly!) They're great to keep things covered as best as possible when feeding the baby and give the versatility of 'easy access' :)

Since cardis don't have to close while pregnant (or even after!), the choices are endless and you can get great end-of-season deals. So many options: Cashmere, faux-leather, boyfriend, elbow-patch, colorblock, sporty, animal print, waterfall, belted, blanket-wrap...I could go on and on, but you get the idea! It can be soooo tempting to just throw on oversized sweatshirts especially on those days when you're feeling especially crummy/exhausted/huuuge...but there's a better option that's just as comfy! Sweatshirts have come along way from the alma mater-emblazoned hoodies from high school/college days. Fun texture, flirty ruffles, sparkly sequins, lace overlays and interesting details really dress up these sweatshirts making them pass as 'real clothes' when all you really want are your pjs. Size up as necessary and have a bit of an oversized feel post-baby. 4. The 'Other Side' of the Closet! That's right...your dude's duds :) More specifically his button-downs. Thank recent trends again for this one as oversized button-downs are definitely of-the-moment.

I borrowed one of D's basic white button-downs for this look...but don't stop there. As fall approaches don't be shy about borrowing his chambrays, tartans and ginghams! I am sure you, dear readers, also have your own tips and tricks for dressing your baby bumps - so let's hear 'em! As always (and I'm sorry that I don't say it nearly enough!) thanks for reading :) {Top: Anthropologie (sold out) - sim, Skirt: Mimi - sim, Watch, Sunnies, Shoes: J.Crew (old) - sim, Lips: Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil} Ladies, let me tell y'all, you are in luck now! Let me introduce you to Stasia Bridal: a new, modest bridal website that I seriously wish existed when I was dress shopping. "Stasia Modest Couture is the first bridal company to give you, the bride, the power to create your perfect bridal gown at an affordable cost. Stasia's unique custom design process allows you to choose from over 1000 different combinations to create your ideal gown.

Jewish and Muslim modesty standards tend to be more strict than most other religions and where other websites fail to provide options within the stricter boundaries, Stasia succeeds! They have so many customizable options and I love how they ditched the 'frump factor' in favor of glamorous options. The ladies at Stasia sent me these images of dresses that have already been customized and ordered and I have to say, the brides to whom these dresses belong are going to be stunning on their wedding day! (If I could go back in time four years...) These two dresses couldn't be more different and with the great customizable options that Stasia provides, the possibilities are (almost) endless.

The virtual 'dressing room' allows you build the dress of your dreams piece by piece - bodice, sleeves, skirt, bolero, sash, and color - and see it put together on the model.

Neither of us having family in the area, we had to do some things ourselves that a lot of our friends relied heavily on family members to take care of. We mostly focused on the super important stuff - buying and installing a car seat, pre-ordering a crib (to be delivered after the baby was born), making sure we had a few items of clothing/diapers/basic toiletries ready, and since we didn't know the gender, making tentative bris milah plans should we have a boy (spoiler alert: we did ;)). I was pretty obsessed with Pinterest before pregnancy, but my preggo obsession was a whole new monster :) But it was soooo hard to search for nursery inspiration, know that not only could I not start curating the nursery of my dreams, but that I couldn't even pin the images I loved for future reference (if I only knew about secret boards then, oh man!).
