Continuing on with my behind-in-blogging catch up posts, sharing more of my Fox in Flats DAREcember Style Challenge outfits.
Here's what I wore to have lunch with my colleagues:
Shoes: Balenciaga studded sandals in sorbet RGGH
As work starts to slow down a little around Christmas time, I took the chance to go into the city in the afternoon to have a leisurely lunch with some colleagues. I'm so thankful for my friend K organising everything for me, I just had to turn up. I was really nervous about how baby would behave, in a noisy restaurant while people were trying to talk and eat....but he did really well! Let me have a proper 'grown up lunch', smiling away and playing quietly as we chatted. I think feeding him before hand and being ready to feed him at the table if needed helped a bit.
The style prompt for the day was 'curves', and dressing post-baby curves is sometimes tricky I'll be honest! But a wrap dress flatters all curves - from little ones to large ones! The tie and the print helps draw attention away from the baby belly. Thought the dress was good for meeting the challenge for the day, and looking put-together enough for lunch with everyone dressed up in business attire.
Last worn: printed wrap dress, Balenciaga studded sandals.
Here's what I wore to go to a Christmas party:
Necklace: Chanel necklace
Dress: JayJays feather print maxi dress
Shoes: Balenciaga studded sandals in sorbet RGGH
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Love cross body bag in grey
The style challenge for the day was 'cat eyes', mentioning sunnies or eye-liner. I don't have cat eye sunnies and I couldn't find the lonely and very old eye-liner I have. I thought this dress kind of fitted the theme, as the peacock feather print has 'eyes' on it? Definitely stretching it with this outfit!
Was a comfortable and pretty outfit to wear to baby T's Christmas party though! We had a little catch up with the ladies from the mother's group who hadn't yet gone away for Christmas, and exchanged gifts for the babies. It was a lot of fun! I took the chance to wear my new handbag too, the Rebecca Minkoff Love bag. Mum got me it for my birthday, I'm so happy as I've been wanting it a while. Definitely wouldn't be able to get the Chanel boy bag, this is a cute alternative option I've been hoping for since I first saw it. Didn't really need a handbag, as I only popped out to the shops quickly before the party and could have just put my stuff in the baby bag, but wanted to use my new bag.
Last worn: wayfarers, feather print maxi dress, Balenciaga sandals (above). First time I've worn the handbag as it was a recent gift.
As mentioned, there are a few sales around! I'm keeping the Sales and Discount page up to date, but I've included a few below too to save you clicking through.
