wearing lately: last of the maternity wear

Calling this "last of the maternity wear" because at 37 weeks, there's just not much time left... and also I feel like this is about the last outfit I can even show, having exhausted my somewhat maternity wardrobe in blog posts already. But here's one last dress in the collection:



This one hasn't gotten quite as much wear as my other dresses, mostly because it's not easy to do tons of walking with the midi length in a more snug fit, but it's been great for dressing up a few special occasions, including two fun baby showers. I liked the body-con style in my pregnancy with Hendrik - seems like the time in life for wearing this style - so while I tried to mostly buy regular clothes that could stretch to work for maternity (like my black midi and striped midi), I did go for an actual maternity dress in this style. Linked some similar regular styles above as well, because this type of super simple tank dress in a great color is just a summer staple for any lady, I think.

Hard to believe that this basketball belly is going to turn into a real live baby so soon! His room is ready, especially now thanks to last week's shower gifts (thanks, family and friends!) - especially was happy to get the diaper pail, because when we arrived home from the hospital with Hendrik we realized we didn't have one yet and had to quick Amazon one. Then about two years ago I gave it to my sister when she was pregnant with her first... and here I was, about to find myself bringing home a baby to no diaper pail again. Ha! (Best part is that she's actually the one who bought it for us for a shower gift.)
