MATERNITY FASHION: Office-wear

Hello lovelies! I realized that since I had my little angel, I have abandoned maternity fashion even though there are a number of you who are going through that amazing period when you are anticipating your little one. So I decided to continue with that series and break it down a little. Today's post is on office-wear that is suitable for maternity.

Speaking from experience, those nine months were the most trying when it came to making wardrobe choices. It's quite easy to get into a rut of wearing dress-tops and leggings. Below, I've put together more more office-appropriate outfits.

1.Wrap dresses

These are feminine and classy and very versatile. You will be able to wear it after your baby comes!

2. Maxi dress

The beauty of maxi dresses when worn during maternity is that no matter how big your stomach gets, chances are the dress will remain long and flowy and not get hiked up to an uncomfortable length. A striped maxi dress calls for attention and takes the attention away from your baby bump. You can either add a belt or do without.

3. Blazer/Cardigan

A blazer or cardigan worn over your maternity dress will turn it from just another maternity dress to make it office-appropriate. Add a belt or brooch to complete the outfit.

4. Knee-length dresses

5. Trousers

I didn't wear trousers much during my maternity, but there might come a time when you need a change from all your maternity dresses.

What I Wore On My Birthday

30. I had been looking forward to this birthday for months and just as the day drew nearer, I got a bit anxious. I thought, I'm turning 30, is my life all figured out? What about all those mistakes I made in my 20s, how will they influence my 30s? What will this new decade have in store for me? In spite of the uncertainty that comes with starting something new, I was certain of one thing. I had grown up. I have become more confident. I know what I like and what I don't like, and, I'm not afraid of saying it. It feels great to see how much progress I have made over the last 10 years. When I turned 20 I was so uncertain of so many things. But now, even when I might not be so sure about what the future holds, I know that I'll be okay. I will get through it.

AUDREY'S STYLE: Black Maxi Dress + Turban

Hello lovelies! One of the most interesting things that has happened to me style-wise since I got pregnant is that all the clothes that I had been dreaming of adding to my closet are now making appearances. I often laugh to myself and say that it took these nine months for me to venture out and look for clothing items that I love. For instance, I finally got a chance to wear wide-leg distressed denim , a black maxi dress and I have a grey maxi dress just waiting to make its debut. In the shoe department, even though I haven't bought any pairs of shoes for myself in a really, really long time, my boyfriend has been spoiling me by adding to my shoe collection. I love shoes and he has such great taste! I have also added two more handbags to my collection of bags (one of them is the vintage bag featured in today's post). One of my resolutions this year is to actually get some wear out of the clothes and accessories I already own since most of the things I have

I2s 2014 Highlights+ Appreciation

Have you begun counting down the hours to 2015? I have. And before ushering in the New Year, I have been looking back on 2014 and I could not be happier with the way this year has treated me. 2014 has tested me and blessed me in equal measures (see the lessons I learnt in 2014 here), but I am happy with how the year has been. Bearing that in mind, I would like share with you what stood out for me on the blog in 2014 as well as appreciating some very special people who have been through this journey with me. 2014 Highlights March: Welcoming my baby girl.
