I do not think you can see it very well in these photos, but my top is actually has navy stripes.  >  <     It’s the only really ‘nautical’ inspired piece I own; although I would love to get a sailor dress and a sailor romper!  I think it’s all due to Casey from Elegant Musings.   She seriously looks so cute in her sailor clothes that I want to try a sailor look too! 

I wore this outfit on Saturday ~ I didn’t even really do much except drink a few cups of tea and hang out with my friend at home.  Oh, we did go out and have lunch with my sister at her work…  But I have worn a variation of this outfit before; I wore the top and skirt to my baby shower last month.
I just love how comfy this skirt is.  It’s totally been my go~to piece while pregnant.  It’s also my go~to piece when I am not pregnant!   It just works and it’s easy to throw on and style.  I would not say that it is that versatile because it’s a pretty unique style and you cannot change the look of the actual skirt that much, but you can pair it with any top and any pair of shoes from flats, to heels, to flip flops and that is why I love it so much! 

My only complaint is that the elastic is gone in the waist so it just hangs off my hips {when I do not have a massive bump to hold it up  ; ) !}, so I will have to do something to fix that one of these days, but other than that ~ this skirt rocks!!

  1. The outfit is lovely but I am even more fond of the styling of the photographs - they perfectly complement the clothes.

  4. Thanks Katy! : ) I am glad I decided to give that first photo the 'bit of
    something' extra with the black and white coloring... It's fun to fiddle
    with them sometimes!

  7. I love that you continue to rock great style while being pregnant! I can imagine it must be quite hard to figure out how to dress a constantly changing figure - but you are doing it beautifully.

  8. Thanks Rebecca- : ) It can be quite challenging to figure out how to
    dress with the bump but it is a fun accessory!
