Again, it’s been a while since my last post, but life has been busy as always! My baby bump is growing by the minute it feels like, and our little girl is SO active in there! It’s the most incredible feeling :) Anyways, I won’t rant on about that again, let’s talk about the outfit! Read the rest of this entry »

Another comfy and versatile favourite dress of mine at the moment. I love the back detail and how soft and stretchy the fabric is! I have worn this super casually, but this time I wanted to Read the rest of this entry »

It was another hot Sunday (beautiful temperatures around 30 degrees), so a light sundress was definitely my first choice yesterday. This dress was a thrift pick-up from last year (originally from Just Jeans), and I love how it falls nicely over my baby bump :) I accented with gold accessories, 3 of which are my favourites at the moment actually… Read the rest of this entry »

maternity shopping

January 17th, 2013

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I’ve found it really difficult to find trendy, decently priced maternity clothing here in Perth. So I’ve had to put my online shopping skills to use, and thanks to you guys and your suggestions I’ve found a lot more variety! A few worth mentioning are Read the rest of this entry »

Again, I have to apologize for the long break in between posts. One of my resolutions for the new year is to try and get back on top of my blogging, I really do miss it but have been so bad with getting back into it after my whole day sickness phase! So here’s to hoping 2013 will be better :)

I hope you all had lovely holidays with friends and family and that you’re all enjoying the new year so far. 2012 was a year full of excitement for Liam and I with Read the rest of this entry »

Ever since I’ve been experiencing morning/day/night sickness from my pregnancy I’ve found it REALLY hard to bring myself to dress up nice, let alone pose for photos, edit, upload and talk about them. Pretty bad, especially since I spend most of my sick time in bed wishing for something to do. But I am now 17 weeks and pretty much only have morning and evening sickness these days, so I am going to try and motivate myself to get my poor neglected blog back in order!  Read the rest of this entry »

So, I know I’ve said it a few times already, but thanks to much to everyone who has taken a second to vote for me again last week! I have made it into the next round… yes, the next round. Due to a little miscommunication and confusion, last week was not actually the last week… The rules are different for these next rounds though, and bloggers are no longer allowed to Read the rest of this entry »
