Style By Numbers

♥ Grey striped dress: Old Navy Maternity ♥ Red cardigan: H&M ♥ Red flats: M&S ♥ Pocket watch pendant: Lulu*s ♥

@34WeeksΞFinally I’m busting out this cute little dress I picked up at Old Navy in February while visiting the US. I tried wearing at different stages, but I think it only looks cute now that I have a proper (and huge) bump to show off. There’s a stage you’ll hit where trying to disguise your bump just doesn’t make sense. Highlighting and accentuating the silly shape with the varying widths of the stripes in this dress show off my curves in all the right ways.

I added my favourite (and old!) bright red cardigan for a punch of colour and with the cute little quasi-deck shoes have managed to make another nautical look. I think this is the theme of the 3rd trimester. This really is the prefect dress for the 3rd trimester in the dog days of summer. It is light and loose and has an adjustable rope tie belt. Look for dresses that have a waist that can move up or down as you get closer to the end of pregnancy as your uterus becomes very high and hard around your bra line, then drops around 2 inches when the baby gets into position. As you may have noticed, my little guy is still riding high!

I’m thinking this dress could be a perfect coming home from the hospital dress. Can’t believe I’m thinking of that already!
