pregnancy beauty | Key To Me

Hi guys,

How are you?

Today I am beyond excited to share with you pictures from another photo shoot with Dorota from Dorann Photography https://www.facebook.com/dorann.photography/

This is an incredible memory from when I was 25 weeks pregnant. The photo shoot was inspired by Breakfast at Tiffany’s and we had so much fun that day. As per usual Dorota captured everything beautifully and made me feel amazing. I didn’t want to wear an exact copy of what Audrey Hepburn wore as Holly. I kind of looked at all the outfits throughout the movie and put together one that felt like me.

I loved this classic look for a day I must say. All black is not something I’d wear every day but sometimes it is just pure elegance.

I know a lot of ladies wish they knew what type of style they are (there is many super fun ways to find out) as they would like to feel consistent in their style but I must say, over time I realised I am a mixture of classic (usually for special occasions), I love a bit of a rock chick, sometimes a dose of a whimsical girl and even sporty… . Trying to put myself in a box of just one type will never work for me as I am having way to much fun trying new things out and mixing things up.

Today, by sharing these pictures, I hope you get inspired to try something new too or dress up a little more than you normally would.

In the words of a great Coco Chanel,‘Every day is a fashion show and the world is your runway.’ So have some fun even if it means being overdressed a little. I always feel better when I like my outfit 😉

Thanks to Dorota, that day I literary felt like on a runway. I didn’t care about people watching (in fact, most people were smiling and there is nothing quite like a smile exchanged with a stranger).

Thanks to beautiful streets of our granite city (Belmont Street and Union Street) for having us. Thanks to the Coffee House http://coffeehouseabz.com/, beautiful coffee shop for letting us capture a cozy coffee break for a busy mama and to Jamieson and Carry for letting me indulge in the most beautiful sparkle. https://www.portfoliooffinediamonds.com/Stockists/Jamieson-&-Carry

Hello lovely,

So nice of you to be stopping by. I am so grateful for you and the time you are devoting to read this and/or watch the beautiful pictures.

This time I am sharing with you the incredible results of a fashion-pregnancy photo shoot I had with the amazing Dorota from Dorann Photography.

Dorota chose Johnston Gardens as the place for the shoot and I was so happy with this choice.

The whole experience was incredible, she made me feel very relaxed. I get pretty awkward when being photographed by others and that feeling disappeared after first few minutes.

I am so happy and emotional looking at those pictures. They will forever remain an incredible memory. The fact that we are reaching our 10th wedding anniversary with my husband this year and this is exactly the place where our wedding pictures were taken adds to the magic of the whole experience.

I wanted to wear something that is me, something colourful, because you know what a colour freak I am, and because this is our rainbow baby.

I was hoping that my gratefulness for being in the blessed state will be seen in the pictures and I see it, thanks to Dorota… but I also wanted to show a piece of me, of who I am as a mother but also as a woman. I wanted to show my beautiful growing bump but also parts of me that I love and appreciate. I always talk to you about how you should love yourself and I need to do that for myself too. Every day in an opportunity to remind ourselves of that and today is the day ;))

We have been super blessed in Aberdeen over the past month of so with the gorgeous sunny weather and I have been loving wearing all sorts of dresses. I have also been changing multiple times a day. My husband always laughs that I change 3-4 times every day and I say that I see no issue if I am home and able to do so. I have always loved playing dress up and I now live a life where I can do that for a living… . I also feel that being pregnant adds to that. I mean, most of you pregnant ladies out there will probably be able to relate to the discomfort of itchy skin, sweating, swelling and other totally normal but not always easy to deal with aspects of pregnancy. Back when I was pregnant with Beno, working at the check-in after I grounded myself from flying, I was extremely uncomfortable for weeks, having to wear a uniform, tights right over my bump and sit for hours… .

Now I couldn’t be more excited to channel my inner self and enjoy the outfits I love.

On those pictures I wanted to show versatility of one dress. I put together few options: one quite formal option (with the red dress over the yellow one, or the black one, through a date with husband kind of an option (short dress on it’s own) to a picnic version. While looking back at last few weeks and now those pictures I realised that this post also represents who I am and can be in one single day 😉

I hope it will inspire you to wear whatever it is you feel like wearing when off work (if you wear a uniform at work like I used to) or at work if you lucky enough to be your own boss. Remember to fall in love with parts of you that need it and have some fun. When I say fall in love with, I don’t mean those obviously beautiful parts. I can now officially say I love my feet. Couple of years ago I’d ask Dorota not to photograph my feet up close, now I am simply grateful to have feet that take me places and allow me to wear incredibly beautiful shoes.

Thank you so much Dorota for the day of the shoot and for capturing what I didn’t imagine was possible.
