Instead of just sharing what I've bought, and having the goal of wearing it twice in a month after buying it, I thought I'd do a wrap up and show how each purchase was worn.
Let me know if you find these kinds of posts interesting!
I didn't buy anything in February, and ended up doing a no buy month / Frugal Feb with Kiki from According to Kiki. Partly because the third trimester is not the time to be buying any new clothes. Nothing fits! As can be seen by the one-off wears of a couple of non-maternity pieces I bought.
What I bought in January:
How I wore my purchases over January and February:
- Jeanswest Carla Maternity Cut out tank (non-maternity version) (worn 6 times)
- Jeanswest Sol Maternity jacquard tank (worn 4 times)
- Jeanswest Florence print long line tank (worn once)
- Balenciaga Day bag in 2005 magenta (worn 12 times)
- Cotton On 'Gemma' cocoon kimono in Laos blossom navy print (worn 4 times)
- Slim gold Havaianas (worn 10 times)
- Be Free maternity/nursing bras - worn countless times, but never visible on the blog.
- Atmos&Here Betsy jersey wrap dress in watercolour print (worn 3 times)
- Atmos & Here Arlene wrap top in navy (worn once)
The Balenciaga day bag I bought has had the most wear, which is good since it took up most of the budget!

You can see my third trimester capsule wardrobe starting to come through with this wrap up of photos - I'm sticking to just a handful of pieces that still fit the baby bump at the moment!
Overall I'm pretty pleased with how well I've used the things I bought last month, although I did expect to get more than one wear each out of the non-maternity tops I bought, the baby bump just grew too quickly. Both pieces will get lots of wear post-baby.
