{Wardrobe} Wednesday: Maternal Instincts

2.08.2012

Remember how Sydney totally tried to trick us all when she was pregnant but hadn't announced it by wearing flowy clothes or holding things strategically over her belly area?
 Well this is not what I am trying to do. Even though this would be an ideal maternity outfit and I think any of my prego friends would be wise to borrow this maxi dress from me, I am in no way pregnant. 
Promise.
 So there you have it: Sometimes I just dress like a pregnant woman because I love being comfortable. And yes this is a dress. You can see it here if you don't believe me.

Happy Wednesday!

the breakdown:
feather earrings: forever21
gingham top: jcrew outlet
maxi dress: jcrew sale
on the mark necklace: gift from marcus
leopard loafers: c/o wanted

I really like this outfit...it looks effortless.  I've been meaning to try the shirt over the maxi dress.  Wish I had thought of that when I was preggo.  :)

I really like this combo, and never would have gotten preggo from the look on you.  I do have to admit I breathed a little sigh of relief. I thought you were about to announce your own pregnancy and I was worried that soon I would have no  non-pregnant blogger models to inspire me. I think there's something in the water right now.

So funny and so true. Often I have to announce as soon as I see someone, before the questions come flying, "I'm NOT pregnant, this is just a flowy shirt!".

Haha! You had me going there for a second.  I was sure you were going to tell us that you were pregnant.  Pregnant or not, I love this outfit.  In fact, I'm pinning it for future style inspiration :)
