What I Wore: I Know My Value

Can someone start playing “The Final Countdown?” Because that’s where I’m at right now! In these pictures, I was a pleasantly plump, but happy 35 weeks. Things are starting to ache and bother, but I’m still pretty petite which allows me a little more energy and mobility than most. The hubs and I had one of our usual foodie day dates in Wynwood, and we were able to visit some pretty amazing little markets, such as Flavorish & Marky’s, and had lunch at Ms. Cheezious (do you know they now offer their sandwiches on gluten free bread???). We picked up so many delicious little treats and fantasized about having picnics with our little one in the future.

As usual, Jordan Dene’s tanks keep me super comfy. I love that I don’t have to rely on maternity and can still let my geek flag fly as often as possible. I’m loving her new line of tees – this one being a quote from Agent Carter. Make sure to check out her site – it is chock full of goodies for yourself AND the geeky little ones in your life!

TeeFury’s Potter Power

Teefury has always been a force to reckon with when it comes to geeky fashion. They started with just tees of the day, and expanded to have a whole gallery of amazing shirt designs and are now tackling shoes and leggings! My obsession with the site became so serious that I used to have it as my home screen. That is, when I would open the Internet, their homepage would show up first, immediately filling me in on what their shirt of the day was. My collection became so large, I couldn’t shut my tee drawer anymore and decided to take a shopping hiatus. What worked in my favor was that I became pregnant shortly after. Unfortunately, I just realized that all I have to do is size up and I can continue to rock their amazing tees as witnessed in this post. Fail.

I decided to match up this incredible Potter/Quidditch tee with my favorite pair of Old Navy skinnies and my new NYX lip cream in Bewitched. I thought it made a great dupe for those new Potter shades being offered by LA Splash Cosmetics. Together, I think I played the part of an excited fangirl witch enjoying the game with paraphernalia and ~~butter~~ beer in hand.

What I Wore: Modern Witch

As most of you know, last weekend was the first Geek Girl Brunch Miami, and I clearly had to dress the part. Unfortunately, the outfit I had planned didn’t make it to my mailbox in time, so I had to improvise. Now rocking a bump, improvising isn’t that easy, but I think I made it work. For all those preggo ladies, or just those that are curious on how they can make outfits work when they are preggo one day, I swear by the maxi dress.

Not just a boring maxi dress, of course, but throwing a fandom crop (or tank) over it. You will probably see this in some way, shape or form over the span of my pregnancy, so I’m sorry for that. I grabbed my Gryffindor crop and pulled it on top of a comfy maxi, paired it with my favorite witch hat and bam! A modern take on Hermione on her way to brunch with her girlfriends.
