Bracelets: the usual plus enamel coated Marc By Marc Jacobs Katie bracelet
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Swing bag in canary yellow (new purchase)


Spent Wednesday running errands and picking up a few last minute things for my hospital bag, so wore a nice casual jeans outfit. After all of the grey I've been wearing the past few days, decided to wear some colour with bright accessories. Thought that the pink scarf was a nice pairing with my yellow Rebecca Minkoff bag, because of the yellow skulls. After my ebay wardrobe clear out, I treated myself to this bag. I've had it a while, but am just getting round to wearing it now as I wanted to protect the leather before I wore it with it being such a light colour.

Had a quieter day today after running around a lot on Wednesday. Had an acupuncture appointment in the morning, which was quite relaxing. Went almost completely monochrome by wearing this gorgeous blue printed maxi dress with my denim jacket. Although the jacket covers up the beautiful lace detail on the back of the dress, it was a bit chilly so I needed a cover-up. I thought it looked okay with the yellow bag and gold sandals to break up the blue. Although I did think about wearing a blue bag and shoes for a moment! :)

Considered stopping by the shops for a browse again on my way home, but decided against it as I have a day out planned tomorrow and wanted to rest today. I think as it gets closer and closer to baby's due date, I'll be reducing my trips to the stores! I often do a lot of online shopping anyway, my favourite thing is that you can usually find a coupon code to make shopping even cheaper. I've recently been introduced to a new site, CupoNation that does all of the hard work for you and lists all the fashion coupons in one place.

Marc By Marc Jacobs Ukita Bag, Third Trimester Pregnancy Work Wear

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:
third trimester winter work office outfit pregnancy asos maternity pencil skirt cobalt knit

TopAsos textured knit jumper in cobalt blue
SkirtAsos maternity tartan check pencil skirt - on sale! (non-maternity version here)
ShoesNine West fascinate ballet flats in silver glitter
Bracelets: the usual
BagMarc by Marc Jacobs Little Ukita bag in Rock Lobster


After wearing a lot of black, white and grey, I felt like some colour so I paired this cosy knit with the tartan pencil skirt and a bright bag. I really liked this bag with blue last time I wore it, so wanted to try it again.

This is quite a thick jumper so I don't wear it often, but I adore the colour every time I do. Almost a year since I last wore it, wow! Should make more of an effort to wear it over the upcoming cooler months.


Last worn: cobalt blue knit, Asos maternity pencil skirt, glitter flats, Marc by Marc Jacobs Ukita bag.

Emotional day today! My last day at work for a while, I have now officially commenced my maternity leave. Just had to wear the ninja baby tee as I knew everyone would get a giggle out of it. There was a morning tea in baby's honour and I got so many lovely gifts from my colleagues. It's sad to be leaving a large project right in the middle of everything, but I'm really looking forward to getting to spend time at home with baby. The last few days at work have been really tough and it will be good to have some rest before the due date.


With the cooler weather we've been having lately, just had to share that Jeanswest have an extra 30% off sale items - including some winter knits! Ends Sunday night.

Marc By Marc Jacobs Lil Ukita Bag, Third Trimester Stripes! Casual Friday Denim, Grey Tee and Maxi Skirt

Here's what I wore on Friday:

Bracelets: the usual plus Roie Designs waxed leather cream howlite beaded wrap bracelet
Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs Little Ukita bag in Rock Lobster


Jeans and a stripy tee for casual Friday! Not sure how much longer these non-maternity oversized tees will work for the pregnancy - felt myself tugging at the hem a little worrying it was getting a bit short. Baby is growing well! Got lots of comments from people at work wondering how I was still waddling around the office and why I haven't gone on maternity leave yet, hehe!

Tried a little bit of pattern mixing with the scarf. I was given this at Christmas, it's so pretty. Starting to get cool enough to wear it now. Had the chance to wear my new bag too - love the colour! It's called "rock lobster" and is the perfect blend of pink and red.


Last worn: oversized stripe tee, maternity skinny jeans, glitter flats. First time I've worn the bag as it's a new purchase, first time I've worn the scarf.



Here's what I wore to go to Australia Zoo today:

Had such a fun day today! We had a girl's day out at Australia Zoo for my sister's birthday. I picked a nice comfortable outfit as I knew I'd be doing a lot of walking. I don't know what pregnant ladies in colder climates do, but I'm so grateful I can fit my swollen feet into thongs (flip flops) most days.

Despite having gold hardware on my bag, I went with silver accessories as I wanted to wear my little giraffe necklace. Although not as perfect as my sister's giraffe print dress, it was fitting as we went to hand feed the giraffes which was awesome!

Thursday was supposed to be a nice quiet day at work without any meetings, so I dressed comfortably. Of course the day didn't turn out anything like I planned and I ended up with a few meetings and some very urgent tasks to work on, haha. Always the way!

This tee is another new purchase. I've bought more non-maternity clothes than maternity clothes this pregnancy I think! I know these oversize tees will fit me post-pregnancy as I am ordering my usual size, and they are not as overwhelmingly long on my petite frame as most maternity tops are.

The Iconic keeps having sales and extra coupon codes that just tempt me too much ;) They currently have a 50% off sale at the moment, and I've again got a cart full of wishlist items....


Last worn: Soon Maternity pencil skirt, Wittner black flats, Balenciaga coquelicot Velo. First time I've worn the tee as it's a new purchase.

Lots more rain and cooler weather on Friday, so I got to bring out one of my scarves that has been packed away for a while. I thought the pink skull print looked really nice with the purple top and peachy bag.

Last time I wore this top, I paired it with a pencil skirt and it really didn't look great. Just too shapeless and long. I much prefer it with the skinny jeans, doesn't seem to overwhelm me as much. What do you think?

After the cooler weather the past few days, the heat was back in time for the weekend! Still looking longingly at my scarves each day...haha! After moving them out of baby's room they are hanging up in the wardrobe in the bedroom and I see them every day as I wait for autumn weather to kick in. Had been planning to wear another one of my many scarves and even my boots today, but was nicely surprised with some sunshine and warmth.

Went with a simple maxi dress outfit due to the heat, with only a few accessories due to the humidity. Spent the afternoon in the city, did some shopping and watched my friend take part in a Salsa dance flash mob. Something a little different from the usual! Was a fun afternoon.

ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs black mouse flats patent leather
Bracelets: the usual plus pastel friendship bracelet C/O Seri Marea Jewellery
BagMulberry regular Alexa bag in foggy grey


This oversized tee is the other one from my order last week. So pleased with how comfy these tees are, and how well they fit the bump. Don't even care that it makes it the third version of this top that I own, as they are all different colours. ;)
I felt great all day in this outfit. Lucky to work in an office where I can pair tees and pencil skirts and still meet the dress codes. Added a bit of colour with my Mulberry Alexa bag to avoid wearing too much black.

A few degrees cooler today so I brought out my maternity jeans again for casual Friday. :) Picked up this Asos top a while ago for a bargain in one of their sales. The only downside is that, like most maternity tops, it's a bit long on my short frame. I've only worn it once before, in my little pregnancy announcement video, when I could tuck it into the maxi skirt. Although it was really cheap, I should probably try to get more than one wear out of it, so decided to wear it again today. I find that there are some maternity tops I can only really wear with skinny jeans, as they are too long with skirts and I'm past the stage where I can comfortably tuck things in that the waist, haha. It's why I'm trying to wear my normal tops as much as possible.


If you haven't already seen, the Rebecca Minkoff Friends and Family sale is on now! 25% off everything, including sale items, with code 'RMFAM'.
If we didn't have more baby things to buy, I'd definitely be picking up something in the sale! There are so many cute bags :)

Simple denim outfit for casual Friday today. Was feeling rather uninspired trying to find something to wear, so jeans and a printed top seemed like a nice easy option. Expected this top to be a little more roomy though - the bump is really growing well! Beginning to wonder if I may need more than my current 3 maternity shirts to see me through the last few months. I'm trying to buy as little new maternity wear as possible, and make the most of what I already own and the handful of pieces I've already bought.

Simple jeans outfit for casual Friday. I'm so glad Jeanswest make maternity jeans so I have an easy casual Friday option! Although it was fun trying denim free casual Friday outfits late last year when I had outgrown my jeans and was still trying to hide the baby bump, it's nice to know I can just pick pants and a top and I'm set! :)

This top has a lovely print with a little bit of pink in it. I thought the pink singlet would be nice with it, and choose some pink accessories too.

Another simple, casual outfit! So glad I bought these shorts, as although it's officially autumn now the weather is still nice and warm.

Today we spent some more time at baby stores and picked out and picked up baby's crib. So excited to have the first piece of nursery furniture! I kept going around and snapping pictures of cute nursery ideas too. We won't be painting baby's room as DH is quite minimalist when it comes to decorating, but there are lots of cute accessories and cot sets. I'm in love with a little Disney Winnie the Pooh set at the moment, it's adorable! Sadly, quite expensive. Now we have the dimensions for the cot though we can start thinking more about colour schemes and themes, so much fun.

Zibibo Bubble Tank, Striped Skirt, Balenciaga Tempete Day Bag | Casual Friday Florals, Maternity Skinny Jeans

Here's what I wore to work on Thursday:

NecklaceRoie Designs faux pearl and black satin ribbon necklace
Dress: MEV Britney bubble tank in mood indigo C/O Zibibo
SkirtFrench Connection 'Abby' twisted skirt (new purchase)
ShoesWittner 'Bolla' black bow detail flats
Bracelets: the usual plus two old blue beaded bracelets, Marc by Marc Jacobs enamel turnlock stripey hinge black and white bangle
BagBalenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete


Michelle from Zibibo contacted me recently to congratulate me on my pregnancy and to offer me the chance to try out some of their maternity clothes. I ended up picking this bubble tank for work and a maxi dress for weekend wear. I honestly don't think I will be packing this top away even after baby arrives! As well as being a nursing tank, it's extremely comfortable, and I like the navy shade. It's definitely something I will be keeping and wearing long after baby grows. It's made from bamboo and cotton, so it's really soft.

When I placed the order at Zibibo, it arrived really quickly as they sent it express - a great shipping option for those feeling like they are running out of bump friendly things to wear! The packaging was beautiful also. Everything was wrapped in tissue paper, with a cute little sachet of popurri so the parcel smelt lovely. Even with my sensitive pregnancy sense of smell I liked it. And I've been so picky over smells I've given up on using all the previously wonderful scented candles I own!

The top is beautiful, the dress is gorgeous (look out for an upcoming post!), and the absolute best thing is that they included a little package of gourmet marshmallows with my order. I spent a lot of my first trimester craving after and stuffing my face with marshmallows, so they certainly know the way to a pregnant lady's heart! They were delicious. I always enjoy getting extra little surprises in parcels, don't you? Especially edible surprises!


Last worn: Wittner black flats, Balenciaga tempete Day bag. First time I've worn the skirt and top.



Here's what I wore for casual Friday today:

BagBalenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete


Carrying my Balenciaga day bag again! 3 days in a row now. It's just such an easy and comfortable option, I haven't felt like changing it out for another bag. It's been a tough week so I've been gravitating towards blue accessories to cheer myself up a bit.

Perfect timing for this cute little pastel friendship bracelet from Seri Marea Jewellery to show up, it includes such a lovely shade of blue! Isobel has an etsy store where she sells her designs, and will also custom make something for you. The bracelets would make a great gift or addition to your bracelet stack :)

Had a day of training on Thursday, which was a lovely break from my currently hectic work. The course was held off-site, and had a really relaxed atmosphere. I learned a lot, and I'm looking forward to putting into practice some new techniques to make my job easier.

There was no dress code provided, so I wore what I would normally wear to the office and went with a simple outfit, passing off my maternity jeans as plain pants again ;) This top has been hanging around in the back of my wardrobe a while, so brought it out as it's going to be really valuable as the bump grows. I alternate between thinking I have plenty of clothes to see me through the rest of the pregnancy, and days where I can't seem to find anything to wear that looks decent and start to panic that I'll run out of clothes. I blame pregnancy hormones!

Had to wear a little bit of pink today for Valentine's Day! Not as bold as the bright red dress I wore last year, but a nod to the day just the same. And of course, jeans for casual Friday. So grateful for Jeanswest maternity jeans!

DH and I finished work a little early today to go and check out my photo in the 'My Human Family: Rescue Dogs Find a Home' exhibition. It's been in Sydney and Canberra, and now it's in Brisbane. Out of 400 entries, the photo I took of DH and Cooper relaxing in the hammock was one of the 40 chosen to be displayed. It was so nice getting to see my photo, I've never had anything in an exhibition before so I was really excited. Worth checking out if you're in Brisbane! It's here for another week and there are so many great photos and stories.


Hope that you have a great Valentine's Day, however you are celebrating. :)

A very blue outfit! :) On Friday we had a team meeting to celebrate a few work achievements and milestones, and I wasn't sure what to wear. My sister had given me a fun ninja baby tee at Christmas, but I also thought I should be a little professional as one of the things we were there for was a work achievement of mine. Ended up wearing my striped shirt to be on the safe side. Although when my manager mentioned my baby news as another reason to celebrate I did wish I'd worn the fun tee, haha!

When I first got this shirt for Christmas I commented that it had plenty of room for a growing baby bump, but I probably won't be able to wear it much longer! So pleased to see baby is on track.

Bag: Rebecca Minkoff hobo - Nikki in Silverstreak


Simple outfit for a Saturday. Went with this dress which requires no extra accessorising as I was feeling a little uninspired for what to wear today with the heat. I suspect that I will be wearing a lot more dresses over the next few months!

Funny that last time I wore this dress I was wearing it because the oversized shape hid my then little baby bump quite well - definitely no hiding it now!
