When I began to edit these photos I realized that the colour scheme doesn’t quite match the season we’re in…so please forgive the green trees in the background and let’s focus on the light, airy feel of the outfit. With a full, a-line cut, this red high-low gown is amazingly comfortable as a maternity dress, yet will happily work long after baby.

I also have to talk about the pretty gold sandals. I wish you could see the leather insole, because they are fully padded with lots of ventilation, and the modest heel-height make these an all-day wear. If you’re thinking that my feet look really tiny in these shoes – you’re right – I have very, very small feet, size 4 US to be exact! It is extremely hard to find stylish petite size shoes, but over the years I’ve narrowed it down to a few great retailers where you can find contemporary, chic footwear. I will write a post on this soon for all of you ladies with tiny feet like me.
