"Mommy, can I marry my friend, Glitter?"
Princess Sparkles asked me if she could marry one of the little girls in her class
(obviously she's obsessed with weddings).
I had to tell her, "sorry sweetie, not in California."

| MATERNITY DRESS - Liz Lange Maternity (Target), $7 NAVY SWEATER VEST - Target, $6 NECKLACE - GS Lillian CUFF - Heavenly Treasures OLIVE BOOTS - Downtown LA, $45 OLIVE PURSE - OR (thrifted), $13 |
I have to say Liz Lange for Target makes some of the most comfy maternity dresses. I love them. And I really love them when they go on the clearance racks (or to the thrift store). This beautiful purse is all leather, something my mom thrifted at her local GW. It's funny because I had bought the exact same purse in turquoise just a few days earlier on clearance at Loehmanns for $30 and thought I had gotten a total steal (the original price is close to $200!!!). But then my mom whipped out this one and she won the prize. She bought it for $13!!!

| "Yes! May mom got two purses for a really great deal!" |
Anyway, I think I'll be keeping both purses. If you find something you like, why not have it in more than one color?!
Happy New Year!! you obviously have not seen my recent post on choosing between 2 handbags I got for Christmas?? I am in a bind. Love the ensemble!!
ReplyDeleteKeep them both says I! I love seeing your little belly! So exciting! I can't wait until you debut that little baby! You look gorgeous in this dress!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! And definitely keep both bags - why not? They'll both add something different to your wardrobe.
ReplyDeleteGreat dress! And one can never have too many leather bags, that's my motto!

Happy New Year Claire! You look great and it must be getting close to delivery? You must be so excited. The girls are looking as cute as ever and your new bag is fab, GW or Loehammns!
ReplyDeletedarling daughters. "not in california." ha-ha! funny claire. i dig your green & blue outfit ensemble. what a 2 purse pleasure. oh, & that necklace is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you opened this post with your conversation with Princess Sparkles! It literally cracked me up! You are a glowing momma-to-be (again) -- Congratulations! You look great. xo style, she wrote
ReplyDeleteThe stripes placement of this dress is genius. If you didn't pull it back to show your lovely tummy you can't even tell you are pregnant in some of the photos.
ReplyDeleteCool purses.
The girls look so cute.

And when both options are so affordable- an even better reason to keep them both! Adorable dress and that statement necklace is one of my faves! Your girls are adorable- can't wait to oneday have kids/girls :) as well!
ReplyDeletekids come up with the cutest things... you look great in that cute dress... happy 2012 and weekend!
ReplyDeleteI like the flowing lines on the dress. Any chance you'll part with one of the bags?
ReplyDeleteYou and your baby bump are just too cute! This is a great dress, and those boots are making me drool all over the keyboard, lol :)
ReplyDeletesuper cute dress. You can never have to many bags.
ReplyDeleteHow many times have you heard some-
ReplyDeleteone express regret @ not getting
"one in every color"? That is a fine looking bag! Color placement
on that dress is very slimming.

ReplyDeleteHello Miss Chic Maternity!
ReplyDeleteI do love the pictures of your kids- their effusion,whimsicalness (such a word) and cheekiness just comes out! So cute!
I LOVE this look. I have actually bought a few items of Liz Lange just because I like how they fit, not because I'm pregnant. I had surgery a few months ago in my abdomen and wanted stuff to be looser around there!
ReplyDeleteI love your outfit! The dress has a great print and the boots are amazing. If I love something I will buy it in multiple colors. I have done this with shirts before and with shoes.
ReplyDeleteI'm not pregnant but I can't help but run my hands through the Liz Lange collection in Target. It feels so nice! This dress is extremely flattering on you (and the necklace just seals the deal).
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the duplicates. Why not have two when they're at such a great price?
omg r they ur daughters? so cute!!!
ReplyDeletei've always wondered why many pregnant women dont get dressed up...i mean there r so many cute maternity styles right!!! kudos to ur style!!!

you look so cute )))
ReplyDeleteStill ADORABLE as ever!! Miss Fashionista!! GREAT dress and even better price!
ReplyDeleteI love the bag, and I think it's a good idea to keep both--it's fun to have an assortment of colors anyway! And those boots--those are beyond cool!
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge proponent of buying something you love in more than one color!
ReplyDeleteWe totally agree! You HAVE to keep both...good choice!! You look amazing! And we love how you paired those boots with your dress.

You are going to pop soon!! Cute dress!!
ReplyDeleteYou are looking so WONDERFUL!! I used to love Liz Lange Maternity for Target when I was expecting...so cute and comfy and cheap! ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha not in california! So funny. :)
ReplyDeleteLookin' good as usual!
It's been a while since I dropped a comment here. (Belated) happy new year! Haha! :)
Another great pair of boots! LOVE the lace up detail, although how hard is it to get them on in the morning when you're rushing out the door :) Also loving the print on this dress as well!

I think, for $43, you HAVE to keep both purses. It's like, an unwritten law of shopping, or something... :)
ReplyDeleteI say keeping both bags is a great option. I love that necklace and your boots. Very cute outfit!!
