Jeanswest Maternity Shorts and Jeans. Striped and Printed Tops, RM Mini MAC, Balenciaga Sapphire City

Here's what I wore to go shopping on Sunday:
Atmos&here stripe tee long sleeve berry white maternity denim shorts

rebecca minkoff silver mini MAC hermes kelly rubis wrap bracelet
Necklace: Chanel necklace
Top: Atmos&Here 3/4 sleeve stripe tee berry white (new purchase)
ShortsJeanswest maternity rolled up shorts
Shoesblack slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes Kelly double tour bracelet in rubis
BagRebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC


Weird weather on Sunday! Was rainy and overcast but still quite warm. I ended up wearing a long sleeved tee and shorts combination, which kept me pretty comfortable all day. This striped top is another of the ones I bought in my last Iconic sale order. So perfect - although stripes usually are! We bought the last of our big purchases for baby as well, very exciting :)


Last worn: Jeanswest maternity denim shorts, Havaianas, Rebecca Minkoff metallic mini MAC. First time I've worn the top as it's a recent purchase.



Here's what I wore to work today:

TopJeanswest 'Amelia' tribal print top

ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs patent leather black mouse flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes pink clic clac
BagBalenciaga purple RH city in 2008 sapphire


Was a little cooler today, so longer sleeves again. Thought this printed top would look nice with the skinny jeans. A lady in the office this morning commented that it was good I could still fit into skinny jeans during my pregnancy, haha! They have a big (adjustable) elasticated waist, and the denim has some stretch to it too. The compliment did me feel a little better for outgrowing my first pair of maternity jeans though! I'm blaming that on the lack of stretch in the fabric, and not all of the chocolate baby seems to have a craving for.....

  3. I must say you are doing pretty darn well - you just look like you've popped an inflatable beach ball under your tops! I can see why your colleague thought that! Lovely tribal print piece. So pleased by the cooler weather. I know what you mean by Sunday's weird mix!

  10. Definetely not your fault growing out of your first maternity jeans! What were they thinking designing jeans for pregnant girls without proper elasticity! Right? ;p

    1. YES! haha. I was chatting to my mum about it and she said I should keep them around anyway as I might still be able to use them after baby's born, so I'll hold onto them a little longer. Shame I haven't worn them a lot, but at least the skinny jeans have a bit of the stretch to the denim so I've been getting wear out of those :)

  12. Those vertical stripes look so good over the belly, Mica. And on the second outfit the Ikat Tunic is very pretty and perfectly matches your bag. =)

    Only a couple more months left, right? You have been dressing so stylishly during this pregnancy.

  18. Mica your purses are THE best! Each time I visit you I really enjoy seeing which cute bag you styled that day! I had similar skinnies throughout all my pregnancies, and I had the same reaction from some people too. They thought I was still fitting a normal waisted skinny- too funny and actually quite compliment :) You really look great! XOXO, Elif

  19. Your purple bag is super outstanding. You make me want to wear stripes too. Today I bought some Marc by Marc Jacobs flats in the David Jones shoes sale. Very bad of me to spend the money but they are amazing. They are gold and they remind me so much of you and your fabulous shoes collection.

      Great that you scored another pair of MbMJ flats in the sale! They are so comfortable and last a long time, I think they are good investments :)
