Brunch at Sea Circus

Brunch at Sea Circus dress- Vamastyle

Heels- Tony Bianco (similar here and here)

Necklace- Diva (similar)

Sunglasses- Rayban

This gorgeous print maxi is also from Vamastyle's latest collection.  And once again, no it's not a maternity dress and yes I know I am barely fitting into it, BUT how fabulous is this print AND that side split! Plus it's such a gorgeous light floaty silk I couldn't resist.  Plus there is pockets! I love pockets in a dress.  Another dress I'll be hanging to wear next Summer when I haven't got a ginormous belly : )

These pics were taken a month ago at Hamilton Island- loving that tropical foliage!

You can see last time I wore Vamastyle HERE.

Honey Honey

'Honey Honey' halterneck maternity cocktail dress- thanks to Fillyboo Maternity

Nicolette clutch- thanks to OohLaLa Accessories

Realove heels- Steve Madden (similar here and here)

Pregnant ladies need to party too, and this cocktail dress by Fillyboo Maternity is such a fun option for any special occasion.  The big sequins pick up on whatever colour is around so I thought this coral clutch the same colour as my painted toes was the perfect pop of colour, while keeping the heels neutral to lengthen those legs.

Come to think of it, this could be a fun dress pregnant or not : )

Necklace- Sussan 

Heels- Steve Madden (similar)

Sunnies- Rayban (here)

I think this dress is one of my favourite items in my maternity wardrobe.  I love that is covers up the bits of me that I'm not that keen on at the moment, i.e. upper arms and legs, yet still shows off my favourite bit- my lovely round baby bump!  Made from a beautiful comfy jersey fabric, not too long and the most perfect mint colour.

36 weeks today!

4 weeks to go- eep!!!!

3 weeks of work left- yay  : D

Cuff & earrings- thanks to OohLaLa

Heels- Witchery (similar)

Well this dress isn't a maternity dress, but I have squeezed my basketball belly in regardless.  This dress is from Vamastyle's latest amazing collection!  I adore the floaty sleeves, gorgeous light silk fabric and bright Summery print and simply cannot wait to wear this when I get my post pregnancy bod back : )  The new collection goes on this month, but you have a sneak peak at the entire collection at Vamastyle's Facebook page.

These pics were snapped just a few steps from the door of our accommodation in Hamilton Island where we had our babymoon a couple of weeks ago.  There sure is something about kaftans and palm trees that invokes that holiday vibe!

Heels- Tony Binaco (similar)

How fabulous is this blazer and earrings, new in from Threads and Style my most recent Australian based online shopping discovery.  They pride themselves in offering ideas for creating your own personal style and transforming an item into an outfit, their website also has some great styling tips.  They have even put together a list of pieces which would work with a baby bump!

I paired this Stylestalker blazer and rose gold earrings with some wardrobe basics being my black maternity jeans and a white singlet, but to take this look from day to night just add this eye-catching orange dress, also from Threads and Style, and up the anti with your high heels.

In baby news I'm 35 weeks pregnant today.  We did our baby birthing class on the weekend (my husband was so thrilled to be there- not!), and picked up our pram.  Now I'm experiencing the joys of learning how to fold the pram up and down which is proving somewhat frustrating at this stage, however I'm sure in a few months I could probably do it in my sleep ; )

Sandals- thanks to Misano Shoes

Shorts- Ripe Maternity 

Top- Portmans (old)

Sunnies- thanks to Sunglasses Shop

It is sooo hot in Melbourne, far too hot for pregnant ladies I must say!  So a relaxed Summer look is in order layered with this lovely white silk shirt.  Vaughan have created a whole range of silk shirts in gorgeous colours with classic tailoring- the perfect wardrobe staple!

The sandals are new in from Misano, who now have their own website AND my feet are featured on their homepage. Made me giggle when I saw it, never quite thought my feet deserved that sort of prominence ;)

Hope you are all staying cool!

Tomorrow is MY BIRTHDAY : ) Whoot whoot!!

I've never actually shared my age on my blog as I'm positively ancient in terms of the blogging world and hopefully you have all assumed I'm younger than I am.... but anyway here goes: 34 years old tomorrow (and 33 weeks pregnant)! Mid-thirties it is, and a great place to be :)

Now to my outfit! Who doesn't love a little bit of sequin action, especially in the day time! This voluminous tee from Aussie label Fillyboo is just so comfy and the fabric so soft too.  Fillyboo have such a gorgeous range of maternity wear known and loved for its laid back, bohemian look.

Paired today with my Mavi maternity jeans which I purchased pretty early on in my pregnancy.   I was a bit skeptical about buying jeans when I would be pregnant over Summer, but with Melbourne weather being what it is I have worn them so much! They sit under your belly and the fabric is such a light, stretchy denim there is no doubt I'll keep wearing these post pregnancy : )

Hair out and no sunnies for a bit of a change today!

Corporate

Top- Country Road (similar)

Reims bag- thanks to Ooh La La

Lili earrings & Cuff- thanks to Ooh La La

Heels- Nine West (similar with low heel)

I do have a full time office job where I need to look professional and corporate five days a week so one of the things I went on the hunt for as soon as I began growing out of my regular clothes was black work skirt and black work pants.  Between a black maternity pencil skirt and black maternity pants I essentially have my work wardrobe covered! Mix and match with any top and blazer and you can really make do for work with just these two items, and get really great value for money out of them (think cost per wear).  These black pants from Soon are perfect, a lovely comfy (stretchy) fabric and a waist band that folds up or down they will no doubt stay in rotation once bub is born- really affordable too!

These are my work shoes, which normally live under my desk at work but bought home to take some pics with.  Note the low heel people!! Very practical indeed ; )

LOVE, love, love this skirt.  The charcoal grey is perfect and it is so comfortable! Again the ruch-ing and length makes it extra fabulous 

As you read this I am in sunny Hamilton Island for one last holiday with just my husband and I before bub arrives.  You can follow my adventures via Instagram!

Hat- Seed (similar)

Bracelets- Asos (here)

Sunnies- Rayban (here)

I've raved on quite a bit about how much I have been loving tank dresses as part of my maternity wardrobe and here is another- black, ruched sides, wide straps and the perfect length.  Certainly fabulous worn on their own for the most effortless outfit ever, or fun to layer for a completely different look.  This dress by Soon Maternity (currently on sale) is also available in red and blue, as well some different prints.

In other news the conversion of our study to a nursery is coming together beautifully! I painted the room last week- turned out to be quite an effort as we had painted the walls dark grey when we moved in and I now wanted them white- took FOUR coats to cover it up, plus I did the ceiling.  That bath at the end of the day sure felt good!!  Looks so fresh and lovely now though!  My handy husband changed the light fitting and we hung new curtains- the cot is set up and an armchair has been relocated from our lounge room. A chest of draws to be added, some wall art and a few other finishing touches to go.  I'll be sure to share the final result with you : )
