Belt Bags

Earlier this month I talked about my newest handbag crush: the ultimate 3-in-1 belt bag.  I first styled it as a crossbody, and today I’m styling it as it’s meant to be worn – around the waist.  Even with a pregnant belly, it still works and looks chic as ever.

My love for this bag is pretty unparalleled.  I’ve wanted a belt bag since before becoming pregnant, and as soon as I found out I was, knew it would be the perfect addition.  Being handsfree is essential as a mom, and with this beauty I don’t have to compromise functionality.  It comes with a gold chain to wear as a crossbody and everything can be removed to carry it as a clutch for evenings out.

If you’ve been thinking of jumping on the belt bag trend, I highly recommend you do!  You don’t need to go the fanny pack route – there are so many fabulous structured options out there for a more chic look.

Wrap Dresses

James Perse is a line I’ve long loved.  While the t-shirts have always been a part of my wardrobe, I hadn’t tried on their dresses until becoming pregnant.  The double-lined cotton is super comfortable and very forgiving.  No VPL here!  I love how the fabric maintains its shape and doesn’t stretch out.  Plus, the ruching around the waist and wrap effect around the bustline make it a great option for all shapes and sizes.

While the price point is a bit higher for James Perse, the quality makes it 100% worth it.
