Ooh: I love this cotton blend cardigan with all of its interesting, fun details. Love the peplum hem, the single button closure, and the diagonal stitches in the back, which I think would be super flattering. I’m a huge fan of the marled look, too, and I’m in love with all of these colors. I think it would be a great layering piece in the fall and spring, worn with a pencil skirt, a sheath dress, a pair of trousers… pretty much anything. The care instructions are to hand wash cold, dry flat, and it comes in regular and petite sizes XS-XL for $144. Nic + Zoe Marled Cable Cardigan

I totally empathize with late pregnancy wardrobe and body image woes.
On the upside, I have recently discovered this brand:

Great quality, and not as expensive as Hatch/Isabella Olivier. Machine washable and transitions nicely to postpartum. Styles are acceptable for my not too formal medical workplace.
The hardest thing for me is to find professional maternity bottoms that dont slide down my butt, but are comfortable. For this I love LOFT maternity.
Sending thoughts your way! Hope you are okay.

You guys, I hate maternity clothes so much. I hate being this shape, I get irrationally angry/jealous when I see a non-pregnant woman wearing a nice outfit, and I still have 3 months to go. I know it’s a stupid body image issue thing, but I don’t feel good when I don’t look good. I have casual weekend clothes I like, but every weekday morning is off to a terrible start when I have to put on the same frumpy, ugly clothes I’ve been wearing for the last month+, most of which I am still sick of from my first pregnancy. Can you recommend your favorite outfit that made you feel attractive near the end of your pregnancy? My office is business casual, but tends toward the casual end. I could probably get away with anything but blatant weekend wear (although not-pregnant, I prefer to look much more put-together).
