Top: H&M

[similar, here is an actual maternity version...I will need that in a few more weeks!]

Belt: Forever21

Bracelet: Forever21

Jeans: Old Navy Maternity

[similar]

*I'm happy to report these are still way too big. I had to keep adjusting them all day to keep them on.

BUT they were my very favorite, most comfy pair of maternity jeans last pregnancy.

I'm sure they'll be the same this time around when my belly is a little bigger and can hold them up!

Shoes: Walmart

[same]

Also...I just saw these while looking for that link and oh my goodness, so cute!

Don't automatically eliminate Walmart from your list of clothing stores!

Tickle sneak attack!

17.5 week bump pictures!

Getting a good picture of this outfit was hard because baby J was ready for a nap and a bit cranky!

Every time I set him down I got this:

Don't worry, I gave in and picked him back up.

Then I thought I'd let him stand but this kid is on the move and he has a mind of his own.

He would rather walk away than pose for pictures.

Hey, get back here!

So we're just making do with the pictures we could get...

Top: Gap Outlet

[similar/similar/similar/similar]

Necklace: American Eagle

*gifted to me by my cousin probably 8 years ago. Simple pieces are timeless.*

Watch: Kohls

Jeans: Gap Outlet

Belt: Charlotte Russe

Heels: Steve Madden from DSW [paid $8 out of pocket!]

So this outfit is ridiculously simple. Blue jeans, white tee made dressy and fun with statement heels. Pair your basics with one statement piece and your entire outfit will magically be transformed!

Another easy way to dress up jeans & a basic tee is to look for basics with added interest (ie zippered pocket, studded neckline) like the white tees found at Forever21 here, here, here, here, here [obsessed with this one!], here and here.
