Yesterday I showed the very easy and quick DIY for this adorable straw tote here. Today I wanted to show what I paired with it. I only have a few maternity shorts to get me through the summer and so I like to try and find ways to add interest to take away from the fact that I am wearing the same three pairs of shorts all the time. I do that through adding prints, bright colors, and of course, fun accessories. Adding accessories is my favorite solution because it transitions from pre-maternity to maternity to post-maternity. Accessories, like my necklace and fun tote, always fit! I also added a new cold shoulder top I recently received from Zaful. This cold shoulder top is very comfortable and just long enough now to cover the maternity band on shorts and pants. I might add more fabric in the straps to make it a little longer so I can wear it for the rest of the summer. I ordered two sizes up to a large for extra room, but if I weren't pregnant, a medium would have worked perfectly!

    You are so cute. You don't even look pregnant! Being pregnant today is so much easier to remain stylish than oh say in the 70's, 80's or 90's. Happy Tuesday!

    I cannot get past the fact how amazing your legs look here, especially in the first photo. Love your new crochet pom-pom trimmed top and you did an excellent job DIY-ng that tote and making it perfect for Summer! I agree accessories can totally change an outfit and that is exactly what I did in my very last post where I wore the same outfit day to evening just changing the accessories!
