Third Trimester Baby Bump Dressing: Wrap Dresses and Rebecca Minkoff Grey MAM Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Wednesday:
Away From Blue Autumn Maternity Workwear printed wrap dress third trimester

Rebecca Minkoff soft grey mini morning after bag MAM
Necklace:  custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
Dress: Soon Maternity 'Madeline' grey print wrap dress
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey
Bracelets: the usual plus Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge black and white bangle
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey


I know I just wore this dress last week, but it's such a great office option for the third trimester I couldn't pass by wearing it again so soon! Wearing the same accessories as I did the day before, made it a nice 'no thinking required' option for getting dressed :) Could have added a bit of interest with a colourful bag or shoes, but thought the monochrome grey worked okay. What do you think?


Last worn: maternity wrap dress, studded mouse flats, Rebecca Minkoff soft grey MAM.



Here's what I wore to work today:
Leona Edmiston Paris tassel print wrap dress third trimester baby bump

RM grey MAM bag
NecklaceDogeared silver wishbone necklace
Dress: Leona Edmiston Paris tassel print wrap dress
ShoesWittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual
BagRebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey


Today I thought I'd try a wrap dress again, this time one of my non-maternity ones. Definitely wasn't as comfortable with the bump as the maternity wrap dress Although it is a pretty dress and a lovely print I found myself fussing and trying to readjust it over the bump all day. Wardrobe options really do decline in the third trimester! It's nice seeing how well baby is growing though. And the extra colour from the print was nice after yesterday's monochrome outfit.
Indoor photos as it was pouring with rain all day - hopefully the cooler weather is here to stay, as it hasn't felt much like Autumn recently.


Last worn: Leona Edmiston wrap dress, Wittner black flats, Rebecca Minkoff grey mini MAB (see above).
