Balenciaga Sorbet City Bag. Soon Maternity Wrap Dress | Grey Tee, Asos Tartan Pencil Skirt

Here's what I wore on Wednesday:

Necklace: custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette layered with Dogeared silver wishbone necklace
Dress: Soon Maternity 'Madeline' grey print wrap dress
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs two tone flats in blush and black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


Wednesday was a long day, so wore this dress again to be comfortable. After work, DH and I had our first antenatal class at the hospital. It was really good, answered a lot of questions for us and we got a bit of a tour. So exciting how close we are getting to baby's arrival! I thought about getting changed for the class, but figured the dress would be fine. There were a few people who had come directly from work like ourselves too. I've never been around so many pregnant ladies in one place before, was interesting seeing how everyone dressed for their bumps.

Top: Atmos&Here charcoal grey v neck tee
Skirt: Asos panelled pencil skirt in tartan check on sale! (materntity version here)
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs studded mouse flats in grey

Pink Balenciaga city bag again today! Although it's not Friday, this post will be live on my blog on Friday, so had to have a little bit of pink in support of Renae :) Pink accessories seemed like a good choice, and it means I didn't have to change my bag.

Just a simple pencil skirt and tee outfit again. I really wish I'd bought more colours or even a backup of this tee when it was still made - it really is the perfect tee! It's even able to handle the second trimester and third trimester baby bumps and still look good!


Don't forget I'm selling some items on ebay as part of my wardrobe clear out. A mix of clothes (regular and maternity), accessories and even handbags too. Everything ships internationally :)

Black, White and Grey With Bright Balenciaga Bags - Maxi Dress, Tee and Pencil Skirt

Here's what I wore for Easter Monday:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette
Dress: Pearl black and white jersey maxi dress
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus gifted gold bangle set
Bag: Balenciaga envelope clutch in 2012 mangue with giant 12 RGGH


We had a birthday/Easter lunch at the in-laws on Monday. A maxi dress seemed like a nice choice, especially with the heat! Thought that the bright clutch was a nice addition to balance out the black and white of the dress.
I have some more colourful maxi dresses that I could have worn, but not all of my non-maternity maxi dresses fit in the third trimester. Part of the reason why I bought another one on Saturday ;)


Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarers, printed maxi dress, Havaianas, Balenciaga envelope clutch.

Back to work today! A short 3 day working week due to the public holidays. A lot of people took the 3 days off to make a long Easter break, but hubby and I are saving our leave for baby's arrival. Just a simple pencil skirt and tee combination to be comfortable. Very similar combination to the last time I wore this tee! I've said it before, but the relaxed 'business casual' environment at work has made it easy for pregnancy dressing. It's good I can still wear tees and pencil skirts, even if the tees are being stretched to the limits at the moment!

I took the time last week to list some items on ebay in an attempt to make more space at home after my wardrobe clearout - checkout my auctions. Selling a mix of clothes and even handbags too. Everything ships internationally :)

Nice casual comfortable outfit to work from home and attend a doctor's appointment on Tuesday. This stripe tank is one of the bargains I picked up in the last 40% off Jeanswest sale. They have another sale on at the moment too...and I bought more things... I can't resist the sales, I should subscribe from the emails! The scarf was a good addition for a bit of print mixing and to keep me warm as it was a little chilly in the morning.


Last worn: purple leopard print scarf, grey maxi skirt, Havaianas, Balenciaga sapphire city. first time I've worn the tank as it's a recent purchase.

Bracelets: the usual plus purple Salvatore Ferragamo 'Vara' leather bow bracelet (25% off with code with code 'INTHEFAMILY14')
Bag: Balenciaga purple RH city in 2008 sapphire


Are you sick of this dress yet? haha! I'm not! I'm planning to wear it every week for the rest of my pregnancy, it's just such a good maternity work wear option. Had a big meeting this afternoon so I felt appropriately dressed.

Added some colour with the shoes, bag and scarf as I don't tend to wear a lot of colour with this dress and wanted to change that. The scarf is a new purchase from Reebonz a while back to use up some more of my credits, bought in anticipation of the weather cooling down! I can't even resist sales when the items are for another season!

And yet more sale talk.... the ShopBop friends and family sale is on now! 25% off everything - including sale items! - with code 'INTHEFAMILY14'

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:

Necklace: Chanel necklace
Top: Atmos&Here 3/4 sleeve stripe tee berry white (new purchase)
Shorts: Jeanswest maternity rolled up shorts
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes Kelly double tour bracelet in rubis
Bag: Rebecca 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:

Necklace: Dogeared silver wishbone necklace
Top: Jeanswest 'Amelia' tribal print top
Jeans: Jeanswest maternity skinny jeans in black
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs patent leather black mouse flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes pink clic clac
Bag: Balenciaga 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.....

Maxi Dresses and Glitter Belts! Third Trimester Baby Bump Dressing

Here's what I wore for casual Friday:

Jacket: no label white drape jacket
Necklace: Dogeared 3 Wishes stardust bead necklace
Dress: French Connection Meadow jersey maxi dress in black
Belt: Kmart thin gold glitter belt
Shoes: Balenciaga studded sandals in sorbet RGGH
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


Took advantage of the "casual" aspect of casual Friday and wore a maxi dress to the office! This outfit is actually an idea I'd had for a while, but had saved for the third trimester when I knew I'd be finding it difficult picking what to wear to work. I really like the drape on this jacket, and thought it kept the maxi dress from looking too informal. Got a few compliments, and a few "wow your bump is huge!" comments so I consider it a good outfit, haha.

Can't believe I've only worn this jacket once before on the blog though - definitely should be wearing it more often!


Last worn: black maxi dress, waterfall drape jacket, gold glitter belt, studded Balenciaga sandals, Balenciaga sorbet city.

Here's what I wore today:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: House of Harlow Dynamic necklace in gold
Dress: MEV Havana maxi dress C/O Zibibo
Belt: Kmart thin black glitter belt
Shoes: Balenciaga studded sandals in sorbet RGGH
Bracelets: the usual plus silver charm bracelet
Bag: Chanel vintage quilted lambskin flap from Reebonz


Another maxi dress! I think my pregnancy dressing is getting even more theme based than before. If something worked one day, I want to wear something really similar the next! It does make figuring out what to wear easier :)

This is what I wore this evening, for a family birthday dinner. I wore a similar outfit during the day, without the belt and with my Louis Vuitton neverfull. We spent the day with my father in law, and test drove another car. In the evening we went out for dinner with family and friends, then had cake and champagne (of course I skipped the champagne!). Was a really nice way to end the day.

Balenciaga Sapphire Purple City, Maternity Pencil Skirts, Marc By Marc Jacobs Mouse Flats

Here's what I wore to work on Monday:

Necklace: House of Harlow Dynamic necklace in gold
Top: Jeanswest 'Felicity' maternity shirt in amethyst (new purchase)
Skirt: Asos panelled pencil skirt in tartan check on sale! (materntity version here)
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs metallic mouse flats
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded neon and gold and black and gold bracelet set
Bag: Balenciaga purple RH city in 2008 sapphire


This top is another one of the new things I purchased in the Jeanswest 40% off sale the other week. They had just released a nursing range and then had 40% off everything...I was powerless to resist! When the parcel arrived on Friday, I loved this top right away. It looked great with the skinny jeans I was wearing when I tried it on.

It doesn't really work with the pencil skirt though, does it? Much too long. I have that problem with a few of my maternity tops, I am petite so the extra length they add to the maternity clothes to accommodate a growing bump can swamp me a little. And I don't want to run round belting everything. Might need to pair this top with pants next time, as it's really comfortable and colourful so I want to keep it.


Last worn: Asos tartan pencil skirt, metallic gold mouse flats, Balenciaga sapphire city bag.

Here's what I wore to work today:

Necklace: custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette layered with Dogeared silver wishbone necklace
Top: Cotton On grey empire tie print top (with white Supre singlet underneath)
Skirt: Soon Maternity Flora fold pencil skirt
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs black mouse flats patent leather
Bracelets: the usual plus purple Salvatore Ferragamo 'Vara' leather bow bracelet, Hermes pink clic clac
Bag: Balenciaga purple RH city in 2008 sapphire


Very similar outfit to yesterday's - feeling uninspired! It was pouring rain this morning during the 5 minutes I have for photos, so indoor photos again. It cleared up and got much warmer almost right away.

Not sure how long I've had this top for exactly, but I probably bought it around the same time I got my other Cotton On top. So pleased that my clothes hoarding means I've kept a lot of my clothes from my flowy top phase a few years ago, they are just the thing for the growing baby bump!

Although this top I maybe can't wear again during the pregnancy. It is just a normal top and I don't quite think it can handle the third trimester bump, it felt a little short today as the bump made it ride up. Monday's top was too long, today's too short....still learning how best to dress baby and I! Feel free to leave me tips and tricks if you've been through this, your advice and comments are always appreciated :)


Last worn: white Supre singlet, Soon maternity pencil skirt, patent mouse flats, Balenciaga sapphire city (see above). First time I've worn the top on the blog.

Belted Striped Dress, Pink Accessories, Balenciaga Sorbet City | Purple Tee, Asos Maternity Pencil Skirt, Mulberry Alexa Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Tuesday:

Sunglasses: pink leopard print sunglasses from Paddy's Markets in Sydney
Necklace: gifted beaded statement necklace from local markets
Dress: Jeanswest 'Rita' stripe jersey dress
Belt: Asos Metal Keeper super skinny belt in pink
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs metallic mouse flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Hermes pink clic clac, Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge black and white bangle
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


Stood in front of my wardrobe trying to find something to wear for quite a while, in the end decided to go simple and wear a dress. Haven't worn this one for a couple months, and figured I should wear it before the fitted waist gets too restrictive to wear. Ended up adding a lot of pink accessories too, just seemed like the easiest choice. Had to facilitate a big meeting Tuesday afternoon so simple and comfortable was a winner.

I really like this beautiful statement necklace paired with stripes, I've worn it that way a lot. My bestie always gets me incredible gifts! :)

Bag: Mulberry regular Alexa bag in foggy grey


Thank you for all of your advice and suggestions in my last post when I asked about wearing pencil skirts in pregnancy! Today I decided to try the skirt with the top tucked in, next time I'll have to try some of the other suggestions like shorter tops and belts.

Had wanted to try and recreate this outfit pairing today, but although the skirt has an elasticated waistband, it's just not got enough give in it to accommodate the belly. I changed it for this asos maternity skirt instead. The combination of the print on the skirt and the tucked in top really seemed to emphasise the bump. It generated a lot of attention today and every now and then made me think I might have been better off wearing the tee untucked. It's fun being able to try different things and learning different ways to dress during pregnancy though. I'm grateful for every day as I know it will be no time at all until the bump is gone and I'm cradling baby in my arms :)

Red Printed Top, Black Skinny Jeans, Balenciaga Coquelicot Velo | Stripe Tank, Maxi Skirt, Bal Sorbet City Bag

Here's what I wore to work on Monday:

Necklace: Dogeared 3 Wishes stardust bead necklace layered with Dogeared silver wishbone necklace
Tank: gifted Emerson crochet lace bib print top
Pants: Jeanswest maternity skinny jeans in black (new purchase)
Shoes: Wittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual plus Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge black and white bangle, Roie Designs black leather Swarovski beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Balenciaga Coquelicot Velo


Bought these jeans a while back with my last Jeanswest sale purchase. I had tried them on in store early on after outgrowing my previous jeans, and knew that they would easily pass for plain black pants at work throughout the pregnancy. A stressful Monday full of meetings seemed like the best time to wear them!

This top is a new arrival too, my mum kindly bought it for me on our recent shopping trip. It has plenty of wiggle room for the bump. Had originally kept it as a new red top for our Chinese New Year dinner, but as I didn't wear it then I thought I'd wear it Monday.


Last worn: black flats, Balenciaga coquelicot velo bag. First time I've worn the top and pants.

Here's what I wore today:

Skirt: Jeanswest plain jersey black maxi skirt
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus Balenciaga classic double tour bracelet in pearly grey
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


Worked from home today as I had a check up with the doctor to monitor baby T's progress. Picked a simple casual outfit to wear. Elastic waist maxi skirts are incredibly comfortable for the bump, a tip I picked up from a colleague a while back. Expect to see a lot more maxi skirts over the coming months!

I haven't yet figured out how to wear the rest of my non-elasticated skirts though, they either have to sit above or below the bump, making them too short or in danger of falling down, haha. Do I need to put all of my fixed waist skirts in the "after baby arrives" storage box, or is there some trick I'm missing to be able to wear them with a bump? Let me know if you have any experience or tips! :)

Spent a lot of time on Thursday evening trying to plan my Friday outfit. We had a team event on Friday afternoon and had the option to dress up, but I decided to just wear normal bump-disguising clothes instead. It took a long time to find something!

My new Jeanswest maternity jeans arrived and are perfect in every way, so wore them and this printed cami as the flowing style hides the baby bump quite well I thought. Well, hides it better than any of my other tops could, haha. I tried on most of them!

We were supposed to have a BBQ today, but sadly had to postpone it because the rain for the past few days had drenched the back yard. There was a lot more rain today too. Ended up spending more time with my mum and sister, we took the chance to go shopping before our afternoon movie.

Wanted something nice and comfortable suitable for trying on clothes, and my new singlet works well with the black maxi skirt. I picked up a few singlets in the Jeanswest sale along with the maternity jeans :)

Asos Maternity Pencil Skirts, New Years Fashion Resolutions, Australian Giveaway!

Have a special Australian only giveaway today, just scroll down!


Here's what I wore to work on Monday:

Sunglasses: Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: custom Cooper charm by Silhoupette layered with Dogeared silver wishbone necklace and Chanel necklace (close-up)
Top: French Connection grey tie detail top (with Asos black singlet underneath)
Skirt: Asos panelled pencil skirt in tartan check on sale! (materntity version here)
Shoes: Wittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual plus purple bracelet made by a talented friend and purple Salvatore Ferragamo 'Vara' leather bow bracelet
Bag: Balenciaga purple RH city in 2008 sapphire


Dug this top out from the back of my wardrobe, it's the first wearing of it on the blog. Be prepared to see a few more "new" items rescued from my wardrobe coming out now, have been spending a fair bit of time trying to clean my wardrobe and found lots of forgotten things tucked in a corner! I wonder just how much is still hiding in there....

I used to wear this top a lot to uni and to work when I worked in a non-public facing office role and wore jeans every day. Over 5 years ago! It's obvious now why it got less wear when I changed jobs and was no longer able to wear denim every day, not a flattering silhouette.

It prompted one lady in the office to come over and ask me if I was pregnant, so not the best outfit to wear when I'm disguising the baby bump at work. Quite comfortable though, and will see me through the next few months easily! :)


Last worn: Ray Ban, tartan pencil skirt, black flats, Balenciaga sapphire city bag. First time I've worn the top on the blog.

I thought that the sequin embellishments on this top were a nice pairing with the graphic print on the pencil skirt, and really liked the combination. Funny how much smaller the bump looks today because of the different clothes too! :)

Happy New Year! Outfits for NYE 2013, First Day of 2014

Here's what I wore on New Year's Eve:

Sunglasses: gifted Rayban new Wayfarers
Necklace: Chanel necklace
Top: French Connection feather foil singlet
Skirt: Cotton On metallic lace tulip skirt in frosted almond/silver
Shoes: Nine West silver strap sandals
Bracelets: the usual plus Disney Couture Winnie the Pooh bangle on other arm
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff metallic silver mini MAC


Had to wear something sparkly for NYE! Decided to double up on the sparkle a little with the metallic lace skirt and glitter singlet. I think they looked okay together, not really possible to have too much glitter going on for a new year's eve outfit!

DH, Cooper and I had a quiet new years eve, relaxing and reflecting on 2013 and what's to come in 2014.
Blog wise, I've had this blog 2 years now! This year I will continue trying to wear more of my wardrobe, reducing what I already own and slowing down my purchasing.
It's been great getting suggestions and opinions from people who read along, thank you to everyone who leaves a comment or sends me an email. Your honest opinions and feedback are always welcome.
Thank you for following along, or just dropping by, and seeing what I've been wearing each day.

Here's hoping we all have a wonderful 2014!


Last worn: Rayban wayfarers, glitter tank, metallic lace skirt, silver sandals, Rebecca Minkoff silver mini MAC.

Here's what I wore to today:

Tank: gifted Jeanswest 'Macy' ombre tank in 'very berry' 
Skirt: AT by Atmos&Here Mars maxi skirt in white and navy
Shoes: Balenciaga studded sandals in sorbet RGGH
Bracelets: the usual plus gifted gold bangle set and Disney Couture Winnie the Pooh bangle on other arm
Bag: Balenciaga RH classic city in 2010 sorbet


Casual outfit for a relaxing start to 2014! :) The top has beautiful beading detail on it so didn't think a necklace was necessary, just kept it simple. Probably wouldn't pair the skirt and top together again though, the top's lined which made it a little tricky to tuck in perfectly. Loved the colours together, but will try a different combination next time.


Last worn: stripe maxi skirt, Balenciaga studded sandals, Balenciaga sorbet city bag. First time I've worn the tank as it was a birthday gift.
