I'm getting to that point in pregnancy where its looking (or definitely feeling) less cute to dress my bump, and more of a struggle of get anything to look right on me. Its a daily struggle which consists of a small tantrum each morning as I throw everything on the floor in protest. This past week, I have noticed my feet and hands are starting to look a bit swollen which meant I was forced to take my wedding and engagement rings off. I keep dropping hints that I need a temporary one, so we'll see if he pulls through or if its fallen on deaf ears! Probably the latter.
I had this outfit idea in my head a few weeks before my shower and was worried that by the time it came around, I would be too big to fit into it as neither the top or the skirt is actually maternity. The jersey skirt is something I had pre pregnancy and is really stretchy so managed to fit into it comfortably and the top was just so pretty not to wear so I just went up a size! I absolutely loved the shoes as soon as I saw them, but they were starting to hurt me feet after a few hours and the straps left their mark on my ever growing, puffy cankles!
I really loved this outfit and felt lovely all afternoon (which is a rare occurrence these days) so thought I'd share the details since I got a few questions about it.
And a special thank you to my gorgeous, generous mum who spoiled me with a couple of goodies from Pandora. Its the little extra touches that really make you feel special. I can see Pandora fast becoming a new favourite of mine- there were so many pretty things to choose from!
If you haven't already seen the pictures from my shower, you can find them HERE.
Happy Monday! Have a great week :)

Thanks for this post
ReplyDeleteAre you attending and baby shower and you've run out of ideas on a nice gift to give to the mom to be and the new baby. Don't fret, there is still time and plenty of ideas you can work with.
ReplyDeleteFor many couples, the birth of a new baby is an exciting event. The months leading up to delivery can be as much fun as the big day itself, and a baby shower is certainly a highlight of that time.
ReplyDeleteI think you should not wear tight-fitting clothing and high heels. It's not good for the fetus
