SATIN LEOPARD MIDI SKIRT

Good morning! The weekend is here and I’m so excited. What do you have planned?

This weekend marks one year since we got married! Honestly, if there was ever a day I wish I could re-live, it would be that day, it was the best day. If you’re getting married soon, oh I so wish you the best! All the planning and stress is 100% worth it once the day arrives, I promise you. We are going to celebrate our first anniversary with dinner together and I’m looking forward to that. Marco has picked the spot and it’s a surprise, so will keep you posted!

Let’s get into this outfit…

O U T F I T  D E T A I L S  :  H&M TOPNOT MATERNITY, IN MY USUAL SIZE  | H&M LEOPARD SKIRT — SOLD OUT (SIMILAR, SIMILARSIMILARSPLURGE) | ZARA FLATS — OLD (SIMILAR) | CELINE MICRO BELT BAG (BUY PREVIOUSLY LOVED HERE) | SUNGLASSES | STELLA & DOT NECKLACE — SOLD OUT (SIMILAR)

Remember this skirt? I purchased it back in the winter and wore it a handful of times before becoming pregnant. When I started showing, I held up this skirt (post wash) and thought, ‘Welp! This looks tiny… I won’t be wearing this again for a while… if ever‘.

Then as the weeks go by and you get bigger and really nothing is fitting, you start to get creative (or want to break away from a tank dress for once 😉 ) and find ways to make things work that you really didn’t think would.

I steamed the skirt–which I find opens up the fibres and relaxes and items size a bit) and since there is a zipper, I was able to hike it up quite high. The zipper didn’t close all the way, but I used my top to cover that last inch and voila–a non-maternity piece that works.

Speaking of steamers, I said I would let you know my thoughts on this hand-held steamer I purchased a few months ago and I love it. It works better than any steamer I’ve had, heats up in under a minute, has six steam settings (great for cotton, linen, silk, wool and more), is very easy to use and under $50. Highly recommend!

Finally, here are two other ways to wear this style of skirt if you’re not pregnant: in the summer & in the winter.

Happy weekend!
