OOTD: Lazy Sunday

Jeans West Maternity Jeans, Glamorous UK Flannel Shirt,
Trenery Flats, Parliament Beanie

I had such a great weekend catching up with family and friends... each time saying to them "ooh this might be the last time you see me before I have a baby!!!" How crazy is that!? :O 

I've got just over 2 weeks to go and I can't wait! I'm getting so huge and uncomfortable... bub is taking up every inch of space in my belly and it does not feel good! haha. I just can't wait to meet him/her and cuddle the hell out of them!!

So this was my lazy sunday outfit that I wore to brunch with the girls. I ordered this shirt online from Glamorous UK and I have to say I'm pretty impressed! It's the first time I've bought anything from there and the quality is better than what I was expecting for a shirt that cost me $20! I love that it's not maternity too but is still big enough to fit over my bump. I think I wasted too much money on maternity clothes when all you really need to do it buy looser clothing (apart from my maternity jeans which I can't live without!)

What do you think of maternity clothes? Worth it or waste of money?

OOTD: Workin' Bump

Mu. Mu. Maternity Top, Cotton On Black Singlet, Target Maternity Pants,
Pop Basic Necklace, Trenery Flats

Only 2 more weeks left of work - Woohoo! I cannot wait to be outta there and on maternity leave! It's not really a holiday though, I'll just be switching to a new job... as mummy! 

This is a typical maternity work outfit for me, comfort definitely comes first (so no high heels!). I tend to wear these black pants a lot so that I can wear my SRC maternity compression shorts underneath. They help with posture, back pain and pelvic pain. I picked them up on ebay for less than half the retail price and would recommend them to other pregnant ladies out there. I can definitely tell the difference when I stop wearing them for a few days (hello back pain!). 

I also got the recovery shorts to wear after birth. They claim to help you regain your pre-baby body shape faster and increase mobility and pelvic muscle function. I'll have to let you know if they work! I tried them on the other day and oh my god they are TIGHT! haha hopefully I'll be able to squeeze into them after bub arrives.

So glad this week is a short one as every work day seems to be getting longer and harder. Oh well not long to go now.

I hope you've all got amazing plans for this Anzac long weekend!

High Tea & OOTD

Yesterday, I went for high tea with the girls to celebrate my friend Alejandra's 30th. It was such a beautiful sunny day and the food was amazing.

Alejandra also announced at high tea that she was pregnant!! I'm over the moon for her and so excited that I'll have someone to hang out with during maternity leave. I'm a people person and if left on my own for too long I go crazy haha. So having friends that I can make plans with during the week is fantastic.. we'll have our own little mother's group!

This is what I wore to high-tea...

Boohoo Rachel Tie Back Border Print Butterfly Maxi Dress, Cardigan from eBay, Ipanema thongs

I absolutely love this dress, it's so comfy and feminine. I actually wore this to my baby shower (and got a tonne of comments on it). I love that it's not a maternity dress either so I'll be able to wear it later on. It was super cheap too, only $35 - bargain!
