What I Wore: The Dark Side

_MG_8702

If you follow me over on Fashionably Nerdy, then you saw me post about this great maxi dress that can double as maternity wear. It was on super sale, so naturally I snagged it. I couldn’t wait to feature it because it was absolutely perfect – just the right bit of chic AND geek. My only complaint is that it’s a bit see through, but if you wear the right undergarments, you should be ready to go! It’s definitely the perfect summer piece since it’s so light and airy. I paired it with a denim button down to give it a little more personality and a bold statement necklace to bring in a little glam. Easy, breezy…geekgirl. Slogan: coined.

Fandom of the Month Club

I can’t tell you how excited I get for this time of the month! I have to say that joining Fandom of the Month Club has been one of my best subscription ideas. I literally get giddy every time it comes in the mail. Even more so this time since I didn’t know what the monthly theme was (sometimes they are leaked). When I opened the box, I couldn’t contain my squee’s: Lord of the Rings!

What I Wore: Back to the Future Marathon

DSCF3114

In a surprising moment, Miami actually hosted a pretty cool geeky event a couple of weekends ago: a Back to the Future marathon at our local art house theater, O Cinema. We naturally picked up those tickets at lightning speed (88 mph, perhaps?) and amped ourselves up by listening to The Power of Love by Huey Lewis on our way over. I know it’s cheesy, but it makes me happy to think that my little one is already experiencing some pretty neat things that her parents love from inside the womb. She showed her appreciation by wiggling around in my belly a few times throughout the movie. She also showed her displeasure by making me pass out half way through the second film and making us miss the last. Oh Luna, you still have the upper hand on me!

What I Wore: Americana

DSCF2969

Welcome June! I think it is safe to say that we are starting the Summer season. Although it’s a little harder to rock a bikini and beers on the beach can no longer describe a typical weekend, I still adore this time of year. I love shedding (even more) clothing and enjoying the balmy sun. Everything revolves around a pool or ocean, and I definitely do not complain. Plus, my birthday is right around the corner! What’s not to love?

This is a perfect example of dressing your bump without touching the maternity section. This incredible tunic is extremely long and roomy, which means that I can wear it throughout different stages of my pregnancy. Being 18 weeks in these shots, I’m still able to crop it to strategically cover my bump, but still show some (appropriate) skin. Later on in my pregnancy, I’ll be able to let it loose as a true tunic and wear it with leggings. My shorts also still thankfully fit me (with a little hair tie science), so I’ve been rocking them while I still can! See? Maternity.not.needed.

What I Wore: My Little Luna

DSCF2860

I know, I know. You may be bored of this look, but it’s just so perfect and comfortable now that my expanding waistline gets in the way of most outfits. I’ve realized I totally hate pants this pregnancy, so if you have any good looking and comfy maternity pants to recommend, that would be great. Until then, I’ll be rocking leggings, shorts and dresses come November. Just kidding, I’ll bring you something different next week, I promise!

Seriously though, this look lets me inject a little personality into my weekend outfits, which I gladly welcome. Basics can be so boring to me. Also, when did my bump grow so much??
