OOTD: the maxi

Now at 32 weeks, my baby bump and bust have grown to the point where dressing is becoming increasingly difficult.  Maxi dresses are a current fave because they are easy to put on, super comfy, and still feminine.  Here are two recent finds that I’m super excited about – and I’m hoping to still wear them after the baby is born since
NEITHER ARE ‘MATERNITY’ DRESSES!

Madrid Maxi Dress by Ghost London.  If the dress is sold out online, check the sale room of your local Anthro store!  There were several in the sale room when I picked mine up earlier this week.  The dress seems to run a bit big IMO, so you may want to consider sizing down.  I mean, I’m wearing my normal anthro size here at 8 months pregnant… just sayin’.

The Aquazzura Wild Fringed Suede Sandal were a an obsession of mine that I had to have.  Different retailers carry different colors like these cognac ones here, pomegranate ones here and (currently on sale!!) here, gray ones (currently on sale!!) here, black ones here, and beige ones here.

I love love LOVE these shoes!  The block heel makes them sturdy, and the adjustable straps allow me to get them laced up even when my feet and ankles are at their most swollen.  Give up heels? Never!

Another recent maxi find is this great Billabong Maxi Dress, also available here, and (currently on sale!!) here.  This one I had to size up 2 sizes from my non-pregnant size in order to accommodate the baby bump and expanded bust (seriously boobs… enough already!?!).

And these booties have been GREAT during pregnancy.  Easy to slip on and off and super comfy.

They are also super versatile, pairing great with maxi dresses, shifts, and cropped jeans.
