I’ll be honest, there are still things that scare the bejeebees out of me in the fashion world. Neon, shorts, big prints….and tucking in. Yes, yes, I’ve tucked my top in plenty of times now, but I’ve always kinda faked it.
Covered it up with a flowy skirt.
Time to pony up and go all out. And just for added punishement, let’s throw in a white button up, just for fun 
Button Up: Gap, Jeans: Banana Republic, Tank: Costco, Hat: Charming Charlie, Necklace: JCP, Belt: F21, Ring: Downtown, Sandals: Old Navy
While it’s still not my most favorite look, I’m really glad I just went for it. The c-section pooch sticks out a bit too much for me, but conquering my ridiculous fear was totally worth feeling stupid for a day.
Speaking of stupid…I took these right outside my front door. In the middle of the day. In an apartment complex. With a tripod. And remote. And baby monitor.
Can’t say I didn’t go all out!
You look cute! Love the ring! I wish I was as brave as you to take pics out in the apartment complex!. It scares me to death when people are looking. One day I’ll be brave : )
WOW. Serioulsy, WOW! Totally hit the nail ON the head. LOVING this look and jealous that you can wear jeans only 90 miles south of me. Grr.. it’s H.O.T here. LOVE this uncovered tuck in.
So cute! I adore your hat.
I do not think you even have a clue how adorable you are!!!!
when ever I complain about my belly, my hubby says, ‘you have cariied 3 children in that belly, you made 3 lives, be proud of it’ I know it is easy for him to say, he doesnt have the belly fat I do, but it is true, being able to carry ababy is an amazing thing.
I think you look great, and I love the necklace!!
you frickin rocked it! so impressed right now…and i’m right there with you…unless it’s a dress shirt tucked into slacks at work (which i still try to avoid), i’m totally scared of this look!
LOVE the outfit and your bravery! The belted look suits you! Thanks for hosting!
you are sooo pulling off the tucked in look, hot momma!
i think you should change your blog name to Hot Momma Go Round, just sayin.
xoxo, me
Love!
Love it! you are a braver woman than I, I don’t think I’ve tucked in since I was just a wee lass. It didn’t get stylish again until I gained a baby pooch. Wait, I did tuck in one time, with a high waisted flowy skirt. But I have never tucked in anywhere close to my mummy-tummy! I keep seeing it look so cute on everyone but I just haven’t made it yet. You might have me rethinking it… maybe… if I can find a good pair of pants for it…!
Are u kidding? U are rockin’ hot and NAILED this outfit — I love it the best outta ALL the tucked in looks!
Kudos!
You look stunning! Isnt it amazing how going out on a limb can be so beneficial sometimes?!
You are one hot momma! You look great!! I love the white button up with jeans and the fedora and the belt. LOVE it all. Good job stepping out of your comfort zone. You are an inspiration to me and remind me that I need to start stepping out of my comfort zone.
Thanks Momma
I think you pulled the look off well! Good job on being brave!
You look amazing! I’ve had 2 c-sections, so I know all about the darned pooch. No fun! Love the outfit!!! I love seeing your ensembles b/c you prove that you don’t have to be a size 0 to have style!
CUTE!! You are SO much more braver than me!!
OMG! You look absolutely stunning Nina! You ROCKED this outfit! Scary… NOPE!
I think you look fabulous! You definitely “tucked in” the right way! Love it
love, Love, LOVE the tucked in look! Wish I could be as brave as you and try something like that.
Wow! It’s been a while since I’ve come around here (um, I think it was when you first debuted your hat!!!), and you look amazing!!! The tummy is our badge of honour for having children!! Same with stretch marks (I joke with my friends and say “I’m a real cat in the bedroom, you know, cuz I’m striped like a tiger!”) And your multi-tasking, getting-it-done-no-matter-what-ness is awesome!
You go brave momma. Button ups are the ultimate tuck in that I fear. You look great. Super duper GREAT!!!!
I can’t believe you felt stupid! You look amazing…and OMG, you are gorgeous in all those outfits!
Popping over from WIWW
I also am very hesitant to tuck in with pants (fine doing it with skirts!) without a sweater or something to distract. You pulled it off fabulously, though! Kudos!
I love all of these outfits…you wear them perfectly
I agree… you totally nailed this. Love the tuck and the accessories. And especially your confidence. I have the worst time taking my outdoor photos, for fear of who’s thinking I’m crazy. But if my photos turned out this awesome? I don’t know… I might have to embrace the inner model.
Dropping by from WIWW… your tucked in outfit is adorable! You pull it off well, the hat is a great accessory… and go you with the trip-pod, remote and baby monitor…. Woot! Have a great Wed.!
You are so cute! Love the outfits! Newest follower! Hoping for all the outfits to keep me inspired to dress fashionably!
i saw your link up on the pleated poppy today and had to check it out because of your title- i totally feel the same about tucking my shirts in…. and the funny thing is i am wearing a similar outfit to yours today! *white tunic top, dark jeans and skinny belt* i was a little uncomfy but decided to go for it. i think you look great… and i LOVE that hat.
I did it. I tucked my shirt today. Poplin green skirt (gap) black tank (kohls) belt (gap) Toms shoes. Thanks for the insirpation.
Looking great! And yes, you can definitely pull off the tucked in shirt/top. No need to hide it with a sweater or skirT! You never fail to make a statement that no matter how busy a mommy can be, she can always look great!
ha ha, that’s awesome (your last paragraph), and so is that last picture! I’m impressed, I feel the same way about tucking in… I feel like it makes me look so much wider. BUT, I’ve been trying it with skirts lately. Haven’t gone there yet with pants though!
Hi, i’m a new follower from WIWW ,great photos
Your last few lines made me laugh out loud…and not as in the cutesy “lol”…I truly laughed out loud.
You look adorable by the way. Love the outfit. I am afraid of tucking in, too, but it added so much to this outfit!
