If I was a Pin-Up...

I have always been a huge fan of the "pin-up" look. 
Whether or not it is considered "in", 
I like to rock out a classic 40s-50s look every now and then. 
You can't help but feel like Marilyn Monroe every time you adorn a pair of cropped pants, or a well-fitted pencil skirt.

As it would appear, 
however, 
it is coming back IN.

There is something so sexy, feminine, and classic when it comes to this look,
so its no wonder that a slew of celebrities and fashion icons are choosing to adopt this classic and timeless image of womanhood.

I mean, c'mon.

I decided to put together a fairly dainty pin-up inspired look.

When you have two young children, trying to look "sexy" is just laughable. 
Especially because you have a good chance of being covered in some sort of substance regularly,

Sexy is not the first term that comes to mind.
Regardless of what you're wearing.

Truth.
