What I wore:
Necklace: Jeanswest Taki necklace (C/O)
Tee: Jeanswest Sonny maternity tee in lagoon marle (C/O)Skirt: Asos maternity graphic print pencil skirt (non-maternity version here)
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey (on sale in black)
Bracelets: the usual plus Balenciaga classic double tour bracelet in pearly grey
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey
Why I wore it:
The style challenge for the day was metallics. While I have a metallic tee, I certainly can't fit it in the third trimester! I decided to use accessories for this, with the silver necklace, Balenciaga wrap bracelet and studded mouse flats.I had a quite day in the office without a lot of meetings so a simple tee and pencil skirt outfit was perfect.
Last worn: green maternity tee, graphic print maternity pencil skirt, studded mouse flats, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag.
Other ways to wear: green maternity tee and skinny jeans, graphic print pencil skirt and grey tee, studded mouse flats and a printed wrap dress, Rebecca Minkoff MAM bag and a red leopard print dress.

What I wore:
Jacket: Jeanswest Nadine 3/4 sleeve dusky pink blazer
Necklace: Eye Candy LA 'Sasha' statement necklace
Singlet: Jeanswest maternity tank in white
Skirt: Asos maternity panelled pencil skirt in tartan check (non-maternity version here)
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs two tone flats in blush and black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff MAB mini in soft grey
Why I wore it:
The style challenge for the day was white, so it seemed obvious to wear my white maternity tank. I did worry it would be a little too casual for the office, so added the blazer over the top. I'm looking forward to wearing this blazer more when the autumn weather finally hits Brisbane and it cools down a little! It's great to have a cover-up in the office air-conditioning though. The blazer is a spring item from 2014 I picked up in the Jeanswest outlet last year but it's the perfect pastel pink to be classed as 'Rose Quartz', one of the colours of the year everyone is raving about.I felt the statement necklace was a nice touch with this outfit - added some colour and sparkle so it didn't look too dull. This ended up being one of my favourite pregnancy office outfits, so a nice way to say farewell to this skirt.
Last worn: pink boyfriend blazer, white maternity tank, Asos tartan pencil skirt, two tone flats, Rebecca Minkoff MAM (above).
Other ways to wear: pink boyfriend blazer and denim shorts, white maternity tank and a printed kimono, Asos tartan pencil skirt layered up for a rainy day, cap toe flats and skinny jeans, Rebecca Minkoff MAM and a maxi skirt.

You have the best bags. How long of a mat leave do you get?
ReplyDeleteUp to 2 years in Australia, which is really generous :)
DeleteLove the second outfit, Mica! That blazer was the perfect addition to the outfit.

ReplyDeleteLoving the prints of both those skirts!! I've never really been able to pull off pencil skirts, not sure why

You would look great in a pencil skirt! I do tend to save mine for the office though, I'm not one of those people that's very successful at wearing them casually!
DeleteThat's great the asos skirts have lasted you through the pregnancies! Thye are very cute.
ReplyDeletewww.amemoryofus.com
They have done really well! :)
DeleteI've been on the hunt for some black & white printed skirts for the office - they pair well with so many things! I love how you paired it with pastels, great inspiration for us going into spring! Definitely checking out ASOS now!
ReplyDeleteASOS have some great pencil skirts! I have a few non-maternity ones from there too.

That second outfit is amazing! (well both outfits are amazing) but the second one is something I would totally wear to work myself - and I'm not even pregnant!

Oh wow, it seems that you really are on the home run now, hun! <3 Best of luck! <3 And I absolutely love both outfits (as always!). I think that the second one especially is so feminine and elegant, the rose quartz colour looks lovely on you - I can see why everyone's been raving so much about it! :) <3 x

It is a great colour! And yep, not long to go now!
DeleteI always love your looks with the pencil skirts--they're just such fun pieces. The second look is my favorite because I just LOVE that pale pink blazer. I really want more of that color in my closet!
ReplyDeleteI really like the effect the pink blazer and the fun colored statement necklace add to the black and white skirt. I do this similar match up with a black and white top. I find it pairs almost effortlessly with any coloring I try! Getting so close Mica! I bet you are more than ready for maternity leave. (:
ReplyDeleteYep definitely welcoming the maternity leave!
DeleteReally love your grey flats in the first look...and the blush pink blazer in the second is pretty, too!!! Rockin' the pregnant corporate style!

I had never really given ASOS a thought in terms of maternity wear before. I do love those pencil skirts on you though, and I LOVE that top skirt print every time you wear it! You always look so comfortable in your work clothes. How long is maternity leave in Australia?
ReplyDeleteASOS do great maternity wear! :) We get up to 2 years leave in Australia luckily.
DeleteMaternity leave already!?!? Where has the time gone.
ReplyDeleteI love your print skirts from ASOS. I am so hoping that there will be some Easter weekend codes to be had at ASOS. I have my eye on some Nikes....

Yep, it has flown by this pregnancy!
DeleteI think you pulled it off quite well with the blazer.. and I think you've gotten your money's worth out of those skirts :)
ReplyDeleteI certainly have, got a lot of wear out of them!
DeleteI love the pencil skirts!
ReplyDeleteAdding a printed piece can really make your outfit pop!

I love both pairings, but my favorite is the 2nd! I LOVE blush pink on you! It looks so lovely with the skirt, as well as that beautiful necklace! Almost time to meet baby, I know you must be so excited! I hope you're having a great day and start to your week so far, beautiful!

Of course, both of these outfits are great but I have to say the second one is my favorite. Especially the color of the blazer - I feel like I see either the basics (white, black) or bold colors for blazers, so the pastel is a nice change up and it matches so well with the necklace!

Look at that baby bump grow! Oh you look beautiful! The second has to be my favourite, I love the skirt and pairing with a soft pink blazer just makes the look so feminine <3

These flats are too cute! The first outfit is my favorite, the print on the skirt is great. I rarely wear pencil skirts, pregnant or not, don't know why, to be honest, as they are so elegant.

They are great, but I have a hard time wearing them outside the office!

ReplyDeleteI love the soft colors you've added in both outfits with your top and blazer. It really takes these skirts to spring. They are so versatile and you've styled them so many cute ways!
ReplyDeleteTwo very chic outfits with your ASOS maternity pencil skirts. I love that you are wearing practical but super cute flats with both looks. The statement necklace in the second outfit is just beautiful, and reminds me of gorgeous spring blooms. <3 XOXO, Elif
