What I Wore, Maternity Style, Pregnancy Style, Stripes, Spring Transition, @whatiwore

WhatIWore: …join ‘em! I realized this morning that what I’m wearing today is another repeat outfit, except this time, swapping out some of my favorite pieces for their maternity style cousins.

When: March 19, 2014

What:
Necklace: JessLC
Lips: NARS 'Afghan Red’
Jacket: Old Navy (similar)
Tunic: Old Navy (on sale for $15)
Maternity Leggings: Target
Bag: Coach (similar)
Booties: Rag and Bone

Where: Studio and lunch with Adam

Why: Ok, so yea. I wore a super similar outfit to this a couple weeks ago (and called it 'Uniform, so I suppose the repeat makes a lot of sense!) but have had to hang up my pixie pants (on sale) for a pair of maternity leggings. One thing I’ve learned lately (especially when it comes to your closet) never say never! I don’t really see it as a surrender or anything - in fact - I feel really cute! I’ve worn the tunic/leggings combo a couple times around town and it’s still pulled together and comfortable. Man. Looking at these photos I can’t believe I’m actually, really and truly pregnant! It’s something I’ve wanted for such a long time and it makes me soooo happy to see that lil bump.

WhatIWore: Now that I’ve shared my happy news, I feel so much more comfortable digging into the maternity pieces I’ve picked up over the past few weeks. Truth be told, my baby bump is still pretty tiny and I feel a little in limbo between looking pregnant and looking like I had a big burrito for lunch.

When: March 11, 2014

Where: Teaching, lunch date

What:
Shades: Karen Walker ‘Northern Lights’
Lips: NARS ‘Scarlet Empress’
Q Scrabble Necklace: Heist Jewelry
Dress: Target
Jacket: MICHAEL Michael Kors via Nordstrom Rack (similar)
Bag: Coach ‘Mini Tanner Legacy’
Shoes: BCBG via DSW

Why: First things first, a huge, heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you who messaged/tweeted/emailed me yesterday! I felt so loved and happy reading all of your responses. It reminds me how wonderful it can be to connect online and I’m so grateful to have so much love coming in from near and far. You’re the best!

Now - my first pregnancy style post! I’m in love with this Target maternity dress that was under $30. Hopefully it will work throughout my second and third trimesters and even after I have the baby. I think it looks pretty cute with my new white leather jacket too! More on that coming soon!

I am SO excited to go bare legged today! I actually walked around barefoot in my yard for a while - it got up to 70 degrees! To keep things simple accessory wise, I went with my classic nude heels and a little Q scrabble charm necklace. Seems appropriate with Baby Quirk on the way!

UPDATE: After 70 and sunny on Tuesday, we had sideways snow on Wednesday. In like a lion, out like a lamb! Send us more pretty days, Mother Nature!
