OKC Outlets Mother's Day Gift Guide

I'm so excited to be able to celebrate Mother's Day myself for the first time this year! It still counts even if bebé is still in my belly, right? I think yes! I know Mother's Day looks different for everyone...whether you are a mom, have a mom, love someone who is a mom, or if you've lost a baby or mom. No matter what, the special ladies in your life deserve to be celebrated, big or small! 

Everyone's love language and budget is different, but for those in Oklahoma who are the gift giving type, I picked out some items at OKC Outlets that would make perfect gifts for Mother's Day! I chose three stores for three different budgets:

AOK Guide to Palm Springs

Shop this maternity outfit here! Code AMANDASOK25 gives you a discount on the dress.

Suns out bumps out! C and I took a little babymoon getaway to Palm Springs, California, and had the best time! We chose Palm Springs because it had a little bit of everything we were wanting out of a babymoon: relaxation, sunshine, outdoor activities/hiking, good food and shopping. We LOVED it there! Palm Springs used to be a vacation spot for the old Hollywood crowd (think: Elvis, Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra)... Many stars still have vacation homes there and I can see why! The area is well known for its midcentury modern architecture - some areas really feel like you're stepping back in time, in the best way! 

I'm sharing all the things we did, the places we ate and where we stayed below (plus a few bonus activities that were on our list). I'd definitely recommend Palm Springs for a babymoon, bachelorette party, friend trip or just a low-key long weekend! In my opinion it was similar to Scottsdale, but on a smaller and quieter scale.

OKC Outlets are in Full Bloom

Spring is in the air in Oklahoma and OKC Outlets are in full bloom. If you haven't heard the news, I'm in a season of change myself - a baby boy is due late this summer! My changing body and growing family means I've been on the hunt for new, bump friendly clothes (and of course lots of baby items)...OKC Outlets to the rescue! It's so great to shop discounted prices on clothes I need now that won't fit me after baby. Finding staple pieces that will grow with me is a win, too! 

Weekend trips to OKC Outlets have been a staple for me & C throughout our relationship. It's fun to see how what we shop for has changed through our personal seasons: from dating to engagement/wedding to buying our first home and now to having a baby. OKC Outlets has a store for every season of life and this season in particular is in full bloom. Below I'm sharing some of my personal go-to stores at the outlets  + some favorite items from each one. All of the pieces below are not maternity - I either picked items that would stay flowy and stretch with me or I just sized up for the bump.
