What I wore:
Dress: Soon Maternity 'Madeline' grey print wrap dress
Singlet (under dress): Target grey marle tank top
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs metallic mouse flats
Bracelets: the usual plus JORD black Fieldcrest wood watch (C/O)
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere
Why I wore it:
This dress has definitely been my most worn office wear this pregnancy! I'm so glad I bought it during my last pregnancy. I think wearing something once a week is perfectly acceptable in pregnancy, especially in the last trimester.I've fallen into a third trimester pregnancy capsule wardrobe as the baby bump outgrows most things I own, so I'll need to do a post about that. This dress is one of the key pieces.
Last worn: Soon Maternity wrap dress, grey singlet, gold mouse flats, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere bag.
Other ways to wear: wrap dress and Chloe Paddington, grey singlet and denim shorts, gold mouse flats and a pencil skirt, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere bag and denim shorts.
Printed wrap dresses under $100:
What I wore:
Dress: Atmos&Here Betsy jersey wrap dress in watercolour print (on sale!)
Tank (under dress): turquoise Cotton On singlet
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs logo plaque flats in camel
Bracelets: the usual plus JORD black Fieldcrest wood watch (C/O)
Bag: Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene 30 speedy bandouliere
Why I wore it:
As I mentioned last time I wore this dress, being a non-maternity piece I'm trying to get as much wear from it as possible before the baby bump outgrows it. I was pleased I could squeeze in another wear.When I was planning in the evening what to wear the next day, I was thinking of a different singlet to wear under this dress and thought that my turquoise one would look nice and match the print. I noticed in the morning that it didn't really match like I thought it would, it's more green than blue. Wore it anyway as I was running late and couldn't be bothered grabbing another top! It did bug me a little through the day though.
Last worn: Atmos&Here printed wrap dress, turquoise singlet, camel flats, Louis Vuitton speedy bandouliere (above).
Other ways to wear: turquoise printed wrap dress and navy tote bag, turquoise singlet with paisley print, camel flats and skinny jeans, LV speedy bandouliere and a maxi skirt.

I don't think they're getting repetitive at all! And even if they were, it's only natural because I can only imagine how hard it must be to fit in anything that makes you feel comfortable and be able to move around. I think dresses look beautiful on you and your belly. My favourite out of the two has to be the grey print wrap dress. Stunning!

Thanks Ella! It certainly seems like they are the only things I wear sometimes, haha!
DeleteI think a wrap dress is perfect for all your maternity outfits! after all they're super comfy and office-friendly! :)
ReplyDeleteMetallic Paws
They are! :)
DeleteThese wrap dresses look so adorable with your bump! I really love the prints!
ReplyDeleteFizz and Frosting
I have outgrown almost every piece in my collection, so I totally agree: Wearing the same thing once a week is completely acceptable. Anything else would be a huge waste of money.
ReplyDeleteLinda, Libra, Loca: Beauty, Baby and Backpacking
Definitely! No point buying new maternity things in the third trimester!
DeleteI can't help myself but drool over your handbag :)

Wrap dresses makes one look sophisticated without trying to hard , i love the prints on this one . Nice look for maternity work wear.

i love how you're able to have such variety in your outfits, even in those gorgeous wrap dresses. i'd just wear the same skirt, lol. you look great!
ReplyDeletehaha thanks Elle! It feels repetitive but I do have a trio of dresses to pick from!
DeleteI love your speedy and I love that dress at the top. It's such a smart look for the office. Gemma x

Wrap/surplice dresses are always so flattering for any woman. I happen to love the colours in the second look. Great pair of flats! :)
ReplyDeleteLebanese & Gourmet Travelling
The bag is such a classic one! You never cease to look stunning in a wrap dress. They are so flattering on you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura! I think it's such a flattering style - pregnant or not!
DeleteI love both looks, Mica! Wrap dresses are so easy and figure flattering, which is why I love them so much! I think it's great that you were able to wear the first dress from your last pregnancy. I've never been pregnant before, but I've heard many women say that they try to avoid purchasing maternity clothes because it doesn't make sense to them financially. I, however, disagree, if you plan on having more than one child. I intend on investing in pieces, like a wrap dress (or six ;) because it makes more sense as you can get so many wears out of them throughout all of your pregnancies, like you've done with your pieces. As for your second look, I actually think the tank matches perfectly! It looks just like the color in the print. Thanks so much for sharing, beautiful mama :) I hope you're having the best start to your week so far!

Thanks Jalisa! I've certainly kept my maternity clothing spending to a minimum, but being pregnant over the different seasons has meant buying a few pieces that work for summer that I didn't have before :)
DeleteYou are looking too adorable with that bump! I love the dresses, such nice prints :)
ReplyDeleteFlorals&Smiles
Yay for the mouse flats!!! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd you're looking so great!! Wearing my favorite dress again, hehe

I love a good wrap dress, this one is so pretty! That purse is everything!
ReplyDeleteXO Chelsea http://www.shesaidhesaidfashion.com
Well, I often wear the same thing and I don't even have the excuse of being pregnant, so there's that. I particularly like the second dress, the print is very cheerful. I personally don't think the tank clashes, but I certainly know the feeling of an outfit bothering you throughout the day. Been there!
ReplyDeleteYep, everyone rewears things :) sometimes I feel I'm just doing it too often, wearing things as soon as they are washed haha!
DeleteWrap dresses seem perfect for a maternity wear! They look both comfy and so chic!

You look so good! I love wrap dresses, they're so classic and look good on everyone. I've yet to invest in one, but I can definitely imagine how versatile they are.

They are great pieces! I find them perfect for the office - pregnant or not!
DeleteBoth are great prints and you look so cute in both :D

When you wear your wrap dresses you always switch something up and even if you don't I think its ok to have a uniform that works, wether you are pregnant or not :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lorena :) I do try change my accessories to be a little different :)

I absolutely adore wrap dresses - they always look so chic but they're incredibly comfy too. So jealous of your bag by the way, its on my bucket list to own at least one LV item! x
ReplyDeleteViva Epernay
It is a great bag, I highly recommend it!
DeleteWrap dresses are super flattering for pregnancy! I wish I would have known that with Pen. They fit and are comfy, yet still allow you to look dressed up. Pretty sure LV check goes with any and all prints. (; It's such a classic!
ReplyDeleteYou can get some next time around! :D
DeleteI never thought to wear a wrap dress while pregnant. It looks great on you!

I'm not sure why, but the sound of a maternity pencil skirt sounds like too much work - I'd stick with these comfy and super flattering wrap dresses!

It is tricky trying to find a top to go with those skirts sometimes haha!
DeleteI have probably said this before...but I just adore these wrap dresses on you! Too cute, Mica!

ReplyDeleteYou certainly do!

I love seeing your posts each week Mica, it's fascinating watching your belly grow with your baby! Though it's quite strange as I feel like I can't ever imagine you WITHOUT a bump now!? Gorgeous outfits as usual!
ReplyDeleteMusings & More
haha yes it's great having a bump progression through the blog! :)
DeleteI like how you chose a different singlet. Looked beautiful with that dress. Hang in there Mica! You're almost there!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.averysweetblog.com/
Yep just 3 weeks to go now, wow!
DeleteBoth of these dresses look beautiful on you! First one is more classy, whereas the second one is casual, but both are so pretty! Wrap dresses must come handy during pregnancy :)

It's totally okay to repeat the wrap dresses because you look great in them! And they look very comfy too. Love your bag as well, so fabulous.

The Damier print really compliments your dress. In fact I think you'd be hard pressed to find something that wouldn't work with it. Then again florals would probably be ghastly with it. Certain ones at least. And your last dress, I quite like that green singlet paired with the dress. Your photos at least, it works well with the turquoise.

Very true - it works with a lot of outfits!
DeleteYou know you always have great choices with your bag collection. I love the print of your wrap dress, and I have a few myself. I think comfort is key, with pregnancy and without,and the wrap dress is both stylish and comfortable.
ReplyDeletepretty on you :-)
