I have always wanted to wear a maxi skirt or dress, even though I know they aren't popular here on YLF. And now I have an excuse to wear stretchy maxi skirts (I feel like maxis are way cuter with a bump!). I found one from Nordstrom that looked like it would be fun to wear, in one of my favorite colors (bright orange). I bought it a couple months ago but haven't worn it till now...perfect way to enter Embrace the Bump stage!

I took the kids to a school picnic at DD's new school...it was pretty casual, so I wanted to dress the part and not look too out of place with the other parents. But I couldn't resist the matchy matchy cheesiness of pairing the orange skirt with my Kate Spade orange slice straw bag (hey, at least I left off the orange stripe sunhat and orange flower flip flops I was considering!). I wore the skirt with a white H&M T shirt and AE faded denim jacket, Coach sunglasses, Naturalizer Jailene flat nude sandals and a turquoise necklace (because I grew up in AZ and orange, white, denim and turquoise just feel right together). I was casual and comfy and showing off the bump and still felt stylish all at the same time!

And bonus, the kiddos loved the maxi skirt too (pic 5)!

Thanks for looking and commenting!
