Mira’s recent story on her Instagram got me thinking about the struggles of pregnancy. Suddenly, it felt too real too fast. Especially given that Mira’s my age, on her way to a second baby while I’m sitting in my chair thinking about where things are going between me and my boyfriend!
I legit cry when I can’t fit into my old jeans so I can only imagine what a fashion fix Mira is going through.
