In Bloom | Outfit Post | Featuring Pink Blush Maternity

Fashion and Travel Blogger Amy West features this Floral Maternity Maxi from Pink Blush Maternity on her latest outfit post. Shopping for maternity clothes in this day in age is a world away from 30 years ago. We are so lucky to have a variety of great maternity boutiques to choose from. Finding the right style for your body and personality can be tricky. However, with a little bit of luck you'll stumble upon the perfect shop for you. During this pregnancy, I've enjoyed discovering some of the trendiest Mom-to-Be ensembles out there and sharing a piece of my style with you. When I stumbled upon Pink Blush Maternity, I couldn't wait to showcase a few of their looks right here on the blog. Especially this little floral number. 



Timeless Elegance

When I discovered this floral maternity maxi I was drawn to it's timeless elegance. However, as you might suspect, purchasing floral patterns can be tricky. If not fitted right or designed well they can resemble upholstery more than a classically designed dress. I was pleased when I received this maternity maxi to find that it fit like a dream and the faux wrap design was very flattering. I think the secret is really making sure it's the right size. I usually wear a size 4/6 when not pregnant. For this design I ordered a small maternity size and it was perfect. If you order too big, it won't hug those blossoming curves as well and may tow the line. Not pregnant? No problem. Pink Blush's women's line also offers this floral maxi in traditional women's sizes.

I've had more compliments on this look than pretty much any maternity out fit I've showcased so far. It's a show stopper!

Delicate Details 

This design brought to mind Victorian elegance which lead me to style it with delicate details. The beautiful colors in multiple shades and depths gave a lot of freedom to choose accent colors to compliment the entire look. In this case I chose both a fuchsia polish and a deep burgundy clutch, along with dusty blue earrings. Classic pearls and this delicate lace headband made for the perfect final touches.

Easy Sophistication

This far along in my pregnancy I'm not really into spending long periods of time taming my long mane. Top that off with soaring summer temps and that leaves me with limited options for quick hair looks. I chose this headband because I knew I could do this quick tuck in up do. Simply part your hair in the middle, lay on the headband (on top of your hair) then tuck the hair that hangs down up and into the headband. Fasten with a few pins as needed and you are done. Literally 5 minutes or less.

Ladylike Liberties | Outfit Post | Featuring Destination Maternity

Fashion and travel blogger Amy West's outfit post on lady like liberties

One of my favorite Jacksonville destinations is Five Points. It's one of the city's hubs for creativity where you'll find cute vintage shops, great antiquing, lots of hipsters, and the coziest little tea room. It's also the epicenter of some of Jax's best culinary ventures. For a charming summer afternoon spent shopping I chose this ladylike little number to stay cool, and stylish.

I love this little number from Destination Maternity. The fabric is ultra light (perfect for hot humid days in Florida), and flowy. I love the navy and white stripes. Easy to style more nautical, or to don for a business luncheon. I chose a small in this one and it had plenty of room to grow.

Simple and timeless accessories bring a subtle pop to the look without making it feel like a costume. These neutral sandals and this envelope clutch could be styled a variety of ways, but worked perfectly with this look. Pearl earrings never go out of style and were the ideal accent to this hat and effortless up do.

This red, white, and blue ensemble came together in perfect time for the summer holidays. Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day have you feeling patriotic? This is a chic way to get into the American spirit without feeling so over the top. Folks don't rock cloche hats very much any more, but I'm pretty much a sucker for hats and this one has been in my closet a few years. I picked it up at World Market but here are some similar choices. 



Before leaving we noticed this wishing tree. We took a moment to reflect on the wishes attached. From longevity, to health and happiness, it's amazing how much we are all alike in our goals and dreams. What are you wishing for today? Let me know in the comments below.

Until then...

Enjoy the Journey!

A Walk on the Sunny Side | Outfit Post | Featuring Anthropologie

Amy West maternity fashion
Comfort, practicality, and a whole lot of cuteness. Believe it or not, you can have it all when putting your ensemble together, although I will admit usually one of the three will get center stage. This casual look is a prime example of how you can accomplish all three when dressing the ever growing curves of motherhood. The great surprise of this look though, is that it wasn't designed as maternity wear, which gives it great longevity in your closet. Read on for more details.

My Take

Dress: Even though my body is rocking some growing curves, it doesn't mean everything I wear has to be purchased from a maternity store. One of my standards for purchasing new wardrobe pieces during this time is whether or not I can wear it after baby. I'm relatively confident this is my last pregnancy so I don't want to have to get rid of every piece of clothing purchased for this short ten months (even if it seems like forever). I love this Antrho Mix Print Swing Dress for that very reason. It's not a maternity dress but there is plenty of pleating and room for belly to grow. The comfy fabric is so delicious you really don't want to take it off. And it's flowy! What girl doesn't love a flowy dress. Easy, breezy, and beach ready.

The dress comes in this blue and cream hibiscus print and also in a red coral pattern which I equally adore. I think the blue contrasts nicely with my new fiery mane by Rio Hair Studio though, don't you?

Sunnies: I never leave the house without a solid pair of sunnies due to my sensitive blue eyes. I'm always looking to add to my collection and these from Anthropologie are fabulous!

Classic Denim Jacket: This Antrho denim jacket feels perfectly worn in. The kind of comfy you could live in all day.
