First up, although it's April I won't be doing a budget post wrap up. I didn't buy any new clothes or accessories in March, instead shopping for a few things for baby.
Since I didn't buy anything, I won't be sharing my purchases and just doing a my regular post with what I've been wearing. I tried to schedule as much as possible at the beginning of my maternity leave, so I had a busy couple of days of appointments and running errands. My Louis Vuitton Neverfull was a great bag to just throw everything in, and maxi dresses were easy fuss-free outfits.
What I wore:
Necklace: Tai gold alphabet necklace layered with House of Harlow Dynamic necklace in gold
Dress: MEV Havana maxi dress C/O ZibiboBelt: Kmart thin gold glitter belt
Shoes: slim gold Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual plus beaded neon and gold and black and gold bracelet set
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull
Why I wore it:
I may have been a little over enthusiastic with fitting everything in on this day! I had scheduled 4 appointments and spent the morning rushing around between them. Wanted something easy and simple to wear so a maxi dress was my first choice - instant outfit, no further thought needed. At 38 weeks pregnant I can't help but wonder if the next time I'll be wearing this dress I'll be picking it as it allows for easy breastfeeding.Last worn: glitter belt, MEV maternity maxi dress, gold Havaianas, Louis Vuitton Neverfull.
Other ways to wear: glitter belt with a blue dress, maternity maxi dress and sequins for Christmas, Louis Vuitton Neverfull and a graphic tee.
Where to buy the Louis Vuitton Neverfull (Pre-Owned Bargains):
What I wore:
Necklace: Jeanswest Taki necklace (C/O)
Dress: Jeanswest 'Elodie' tie dye grey jersey maxi dressShoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bracelets: the usual plus turquoise and silver beaded bracelet set
Bag: Louis Vuitton MM damier azur neverfull
Why I wore it:
Unlike the outfit above, this dress wasn't my first choice for this day. I'd planned to wear my maternity denim shorts but rain got to the washing outside before I could and my shorts were too wet to wear that morning. Again I picked a maxi dress for simplicity.It was nice to be a little dressed up for dinner with my parents at least, and this dress is great to wear, even if not what I had planned. I've used the Louis Vuitton Neverfull as a baby bag before, but this time I tried it out with just the bare essentials and it was much more comfortable.
I'm trying to go out now and then with just a little pouch inside my handbag with everything toddler T needs, instead of carrying the baby bag as well as my handbag. While a newborn will mean I'll definitely need to carry the baby bag around with me, limiting what I carry will be helpful with needing to take things for a newborn and a toddler. I'm terrible at over-packing and carrying more than I need!
Last worn: tie dye maxi dress, black Havaianas, Louis Vuitton Neverfull (above).
Other ways to wear: tie dye maxi dress for a night out, Louis Vuitton Neverfull and skinny jeans.
