Maternity Hack, #dressthebump, 31 weeks pregnant, third trimester outfit, @whatiwore

WhatIWore: I always feel like I’ve had a minor victory when I wear an outfit that's not maternity. This was the first chambray I ever bought and I’m wearing it loosely knotted over a knit skirt hiked way up and a black sports bra. Yes, my bra is showing. Nope, I don’t care! It’s pretty basic but a nice way to wear the new casual purse I picked up at a boutique in Asheville on vacation.

When: July 1, 2014

What:
Shades: Karen Walker
Lipstick: Ilya in Wild Child
Necklace: Jess LC
Chambray: Lucky Brand men’s (similar, on sale $34)
Skirt: Target (similar)
Sandals: SoleSociety
Bag: Minx (Asheville)

Where: Breakfast, Work Session at my favorite neighborhood spot - Elm Heights Bloomingfoods

It kind of reminds me of one of my first ever purses, a similar drawstring shape, made out of textured woven fabric, which probably cost $12 from the Earth Awakenings store (can’t remember the real name, but they sold crystals and hemp necklaces to give you the drift). I clearly remember what I crammed into it too. A full size bottle of peach lotion from the Body Shop and a small jar of cherry lip balm. That’s it. And I’m pretty sure I was only 10 or 11 when I got onto the kick of carrying it and I absolutely did not need lotion or lip balm to run around my friend’s backyard. So, in a round about way, this drawstring bag reminds me of that one and its good to get a little nostalgic once and a while.

Also! Thirty one weeks pregnant! Woo!!
