Striped Maxi with Chambray

When I put this outfit together in my head, I was really hoping I could pull it off because none of this clothing is maternity!  While I have finally embraced maternity clothing and am consistently wearing it, I still like to work in the chunky sweaters and stretchy tops that still fit the bump somehow.  I still plan on wearing items from my pre-preggers wardrobe as long as they will fit, to give me more options.  The chambray button-up definitely wouldn't fit if I had to button it, but it works like this over another top! :)

Chambray + Sequins

This is a milestone post ~ it's the first one in which I am wearing heels!  I got the somewhat good news on Friday at PT that I could wear heels for very short periods of time, and I think he agreed to that only because it's like the 5th time I've asked, haha.  So while I still can't wear heels on a daily basis, I can at least use them to accessorize my outfit posts. :)  I should be able to wear heels more consistently in about 2 months.

As I've mentioned before, I love a good sparkly piece of clothing, especially skirts!  I also love to wear them more often than just for special occasions.  One way to get away with that is to dress it down a bit (of course you can also wear it in all of its sparkly glory even if it's not a special occasion ~ there is nothing wrong with that!).  For this post, I've opted to dress it down with a chambray jacket.  This is a nicer version of your typical jean jacket so it's dressy enough to look great with the skirt.
