Since Peter has been off for Christmas we've spent most days home in our pyjamas being really lazy, after all that's what Christmas is about! Yesterday we had to go out to run some errands so off we went to Liverpool. We did what we had to do, popped into Next to spend our gift voucher. We picked up the cutest little Christmas jumper for George for next year in the sale, as well as a little Star Wars tshirt for when he's a bit bigger. Adorable, I know. We then went to Costa to feed George where I had an orange hot chocolate complete with cream, it was pretty great. It tasted like melted Terry's Chocolate Orange. Mmm. After that, we went for some food and drink in The Shipping Forecast where I had a pulled pork burger, pretty good, but where doesn't do burgers these days? 

I have been after these boots since thigh highs and knee highs came back so they went on my Christmas list straight away. I've been dying to wear them for weeks so they deserved a day out! I paired them with my shiny leggings and a long jumper too keep the look quite casual. I was so unsure about wearing a blanket wrap, despite seeing a lot of people wearing them because I was scared I'd look like a sack of spuds but I really really love this outfit! 

What do you think of my outfit?

OOTD | His & Hers

On Sunday, Peter and I had family come to visit and exchange Christmas presents. I bought George this amazingly cute onesie from Asda and couldn't resist buying myself these cute penguin leggings from Primark to match. We spent the day eating pizza, listening to Christmas songs and opening presents. I'm writing this while I'm extremely tired with a banging headache (having guests is tiring work) so I'm going to keep it short and sweet. I just wanted to share our matching outfits.

OOTD | Bump Edition 31 Weeks

It's been a while since I banged out a band t-shirt! Back in April, I went to Leeds with my good friend to watch my favourite band play my favourite album in full. Funeral for a Friend played Hours and my god it was fantastic! I couldn't resist buying this Roses for the Dead t-shirt while I was there - yes I was one of THOSE people who bought merch at a gig.

I absolutely love how simple the front detail is with the rose and lyrics with Funeral for a Friend splashed across the back. 

It's so easy to fall into the t-shirt and skinny jeans trap, so instead, I paired this with my maternity pencil skirt from ASOS. 

Pete and I spent the day shopping and this outfit was perfect for dashing in and out of shops in the rain. First stop was Almost Famous for lunch. Their chilli cheese fries are out of this world. The staff in there are amazing as well, the girl who serves us told me to make sure I ordered my burger well cooked as they come pink (due to bump) which just seemed really thoughtful.  Pete and I both ordered the Triple Nom which is a double cheeseburger, topped with pulled pork, BBQ sauce and slaw with chilli cheese fries to share.  I must admit, this almost defeated me and I was full to the brim afterwards but it was worth it.  I definitely recommend it if you're in Liverpool/ Manchester.

Here's Pete and I posing in the mirror before we headed out! Perfect date day. Pete treated me to lunch, bought me some pretty new dresses, pyjamas for my hospital visit (eek) and the most important, some brand new Mac lipstick. 

How did you spend your Saturday?

OOTD | Bump Edition 25 Weeks

Dress: New Look // Sunglasses: Primark // Sandals: Primark // Flower Crown: River Island // Necklace: eBay // Bag: eBay

So the sun was out at the weekend, so after a day of carpet shopping, baby shopping and kitchen designing (as well as a cheeky McDonalds) I took the opportunity to snap some outfit photos in my mum and dad's back garden.

I've been so busy the past few weeks with my new job and sorting out the house that I just haven't had time to blog, or even when I have had time after work, I've been too tired to bother. It's hard work this pregnancy lark! 

I wanted to show off my maternity dress which is from New Look. It was in the sale quite a few weeks ago (I bought it before I had a bump) but you can still find it on here. My bump looks really big in it, but it's just so comfy and still flattering! I love New Look for clothes, so it made me happy to discover their maternity range. I really like what I wore on Saturday, especially since I get extremely grumpy when it comes to maternity clothes! 

What are you wearing this summer?
