Cozy cape sweaters + leather boots

{ 34 weeks and 1 day }

From the front, it may not look like I'm pregnant (although FurFur was unusually interested in my belly this day, so I suspect she thought I was hiding a toy ball under there). From the side, now that's another story! :) 

I bought this roomy knit sweater for $19 from H&M's new Fall collection to get me through these last two months of pregnancy. It's not maternity––although, did you know that H&M carries a small maternity line?? Who knew? (That's where I got these $12 leggings from.) For nearly seven months, I've been trying to challenge myself to wear as much of my existing wardrobe for as long as possible. Aside from buying a few maternity bottoms (there's just no way around that one!) and tops, luckily, I am pregnant during a warm season which allows for blousy bohemian tops and loose-fitting dresses that I already owned. 

As I got bigger in my 7th month, I found that it wasn't too difficult to find a few new pieces in regular styles that I can also wear post-baby, like this cape sweater from H&M. Final consensus: The regular H&M stuff is way cuter than their maternity line, many of the styles can also work for belly bumps, and is low-priced. Sweet!
