Necklace: vintage gold initial necklace
Dress: Jeanswest pixel print dress
Belt: Kmart thin black glitter belt
Leggings: Cotton On
Shoes: Cotton On thin strap thongs in black
Bracelets: the usual plus gold bangle set
Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs Little Ukita bag in Rock Lobster
Last time I wore this dress it was hiding the tiny baby bump! My third trimester belly really shortens the dress and made leggings an essential to wear underneath while we were out shopping on Saturday. And they helped to keep me warm too. They are just regular non-maternity leggings, I'm wearing them under the bump and thanks to the elastic waist they are staying put. Went with thongs (flip flops) on my feet due to swelling. Will probably continue to wear these despite the cooler Autumn weather, as they are comfortable and they fit. Got to be comfy as I count down to baby's arrival!
Found this cute little gold initial necklace when I was sorting through all of my things to make space for baby's nursery. Thought it worked well with the neckline of the dress, and with a lot of bracelets on my arm a delicate necklace seemed like a good balance. Can't even guess at the last time I wore it, I've had it since I was little, but it was a nice find. De-cluttering unearthed all kinds of gems!
Last worn: Jeanswest print dress, glitter belt, black leggings, Cotton On thongs, MbMJ Ukita bag.
Here's what I wore today:
Scarf: Marc by Marc Jacobs scarf in Island pine-print
Top: Jeanswest 'Josie' striped back strap tank (on sale!)
Skirt: Jeanswest plain jersey black maxi skirt
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs Little Ukita bag in Rock Lobster
Grocery shopping, doing a little more to set up the nursery and working at Church Online today. A nice relaxing Sunday. Although I'm on maternity leave from my office job, I'm continuing to volunteer at Church Online as usual as it's just an hour a week.
Added the scarf to keep me warm this morning as it was a little cold and windy. Thought that the little bits of red in the print paired nicely with the colour of my bag.
Last worn: Marc by Marc Jacobs printed scarf, Jeanswest stripe tank, black jersey maxi skirt, Havaianas, Marc By Marc Jacobs Ukita (see above).
Linking up with Monday Must-Haves, Mix-It Mondays, Real Mom Style today.
Eeeep 37 weeks! you're getting so close! I'm so excited for you! xx PS. love your outfits as usual, that bag is divine xxx
ReplyDeleteYep, not long to go! I'm so excited for you, having your gorgeous baby boy here already! :)
DeleteYour bump is the sweetest thing, Mica. My eyebrows turned a bit funny when you said you were really enjoying wearing thongs as they definitely do not mean flip-flops in the UK hahaha. I can't imagine you dancing around like a crazy person (your comment on my boogie post) with that bump on you! Baby must be dancing with joy inside too. :) Rosemary x

Haha baby does all the crazy dancing and kicking and punching nowadays, or I'd throw my back out :P
DeleteI started to put flip flops in brackets after another blogger had a giggle with me and I realised some things need additional help to be translated! :) No-one calls them flip-flops here!
Ahh you're almost there!!! You must be so excited!!
ReplyDeleteI really like both of your outfits! The pattern on the first dress is so pretty and stripes look so beautiful on you! c: xx

Your bump is so neat for this far along & that first outfit is so great with your colouring. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI reached 34 weeks today & feel heavy especially as the weather is getting warmer. Still, here's hoping all goes to plan for us both this next few weeks :-)
Yes, I'm lucky the weather is cooling down :) Hope everything does go to plan and there are no sudden surprises! :)
DeleteThese are great looks! I really love the Marc Jacobs bag! The pop or Lobster Red is lovely!

Gosh! You are always looking so cute! I hope that I can pull of even a part of what you can, when I become pregnant some day. You are so fresh-faced and glowing! Love the red bag. Actually, crushing over the bag ;)
ReplyDeletehaha thank you! :) It is a great bag!
DeleteYou continue to be so beautiful, Mica! I love that you are still dressing up!
ReplyDeleteTrying to stay active and get out of the house every day still, so that labour isn't too much of a shock to the system haha! :)
DeleteYou look AMAZING! Love that purple tunic/dress so much and also love your hair in those soft curls :) So feminine and pretty.

Loving both these chic looks--especially the one featuring stripes! Wow--what a great Marc by Marc Jacobs handbag! Rock lobster--reminds me of that old B-52's song (Rock Lobster). Great color! T. http://tickledpinkwoman.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI think of that song every time I type the colour name out too, haha! :)
DeleteI cannot believe you're already at the 37 week mark! That is crazy! You're looking as fabulous as ever though and the saturated color of the bag makes me drool over here! Carylee | morepiecesofme.com
