I saw this dress on a fellow blogger and had to have it immediately. Stripes AND black/white/earth tone? Yes, yes and yes! I tucked in the straps, but I can’t wait to wear it again and dress it down. And as if the dress isn’t a statement piece on its own, I add this fluffy pink bag to turn it up another notch.

So I’ve been challenging myself to see how long I can go without buying maternity clothes. I’m doing good so far! I mean I did have to give up my jeans or any fitted pants that aren’t sweatpants or stretchpants, but I’m a-ok with that. A lot of my dresses are shift styles or maxis, so I have room to grow in them. It’s kind of crazy seeing your go-to pieces get more and more snug!
This skirt, for example, works well too. I’d usually wear it above my waist which I can still do since the band is above my bump. It just gives off a different look lol. Learning as I go!
Did any of you go without buying maternity clothes? How did you make it work for you?

I’ve been rocking this skirt for a few years now. Because it has pockets and is high-waisted it will always have a spot in my closet. I especially liked the bright red paired with the polka dots.

Lately I’ve noticed that I’ve been stocking up on basics. Unintentionally of course, but they’re really what I wear the most of. Plus they can be worn over and over and over…and over again and in a variety of ways. Like this bodysuit, for example. It would look so nice with a maxi skirt or wide leg pants. Or maybe even some skinny jeans with a leather jacket layered over it when it the temps start to drop.
But since it’s been around 100 degrees, pairing it with denim on denim works just fine too.

Ooooo if you only knew how hot it was taking this pics! The mosquitoes were getting me good. More leather in the Summer. It’s easy when you pair it with a sleeveless bodysuit & strappy sandals. It also helps that this skirt isn’t fitted. More than enough room to breathe.
Also, I have just one left in the Calico Clutch before it’s gone. It won’t be restocked until some time in September. And if you love this bodysuit and plan to purchase, be sure to go up a size at least. The torso is very short. I’m literally just wearing this one as a top and do not have it snapped at the bottom. Fair warning.
