A Pirate, A Doctor and A Dentist

"Look, Momma, I'm a pirate!"
Princess Sparkles said with a headband across her eye like a patch. 
I giggled and told her she was very clever.
"Now I'm a doctor, see?"
Sparkles had moved her headband over her forehead.
Then she put it over her mouth.  I asked her what she was.
"Moooommmma, I'm a dentist!"  Obviously.


ORANGE CARDIGAN, BOOTIES - Old Navy
AQUA SHIRT - Gap Maternity (hand-me-down)
BROWN MATERNITY SKIRT - In Due Time (hand-me-down)
NECKLACE, CUFF, PURSE - Heavenly Treasures



Here is my attempt at wearing more color.  I usually have a very bright closet but my maternity clothes are mostly neutral.  Being almost 38 weeks, I needed the colorful pick me up.  Also, my camera broke so I'm stuck using my iPhone and only taking photos when I can find someone to do it for me.  Good thing I have my poses down.

"Arrrr!"

Dr. Sparkles

"Open wide so I can check your teeth!"

I'm really looking forward to wearing my regular clothes again.  It'll be like having a whole new wardrobe!  But until then I have to be creative, like Princess Sparkles, and find multiple ways to wear my maternity pieces!!!

Sparkles is always so adorable. You always look great in colors and brights. Blue and red is such a stunning combo. And the necklace is a nice statement piece.

Princess Sparkles is so smart and oh so adorable-love those pics! And I LOVE your red and blue outfit- you look so radiant!

Jayme @ Her Late Night Cravings said...

I love that necklace! And I think Sparkles has some excellent career opportunities ahead of her. Let's hope she doesn't go the pirate route though...unless she's an actress in Pirates of the Caribbean 18. ;)
