With nearly a 40-degree temperature drop, we went straight from barely fall weather to downright arctic winter! A warm coat was definitely a necessity and the wide draping lapels and chic waist tie of this one made for a stylish yet practical choice. Coats are tricky these days with this big belly but this coat did barely tie itself to fit around the bump (albeit a bit awkwardly but it’ll be a nice option to have when it really is freezing!).
Meanwhile LOFT is having a 40% off Friends & Family sale (code SHAREIT) and this pink shirt that I’m wearing is definitely one of my picks (also recommend this waterfall cardigan)! The soft pink blush color is so flattering and I like that it’s not sheer like some of my other button-up blouses. While petite-sizing is limited now, I picked this up in a XS regular (normally am a XSP) and it still fits wonderfully as the style is intended to be a bit looser. I continued with the elegant theme of this look and added my pearls (also 40% off right now!) but finished it off with leather ponte pants just to make it a bit more modern.

Great outfit! You look so elegant & classy! Are your Target Leather Ponte Pants pre-pregnancy?
This is a beautiful mix of pale pink and black leather! I love the necklaces too! We hit a historic low for our state on 11/12 yesterday with a high of 5. I feel ya.
holy cow! 5?! i don't think i'd ever leave the house in that weather!
Yes, pre-pregnancy pants. They have an elastic waist that I just have sit below the belly. The ponte material in the back half makes the pants pretty stretchy and accomodating for pregnancy weight fluctuations. 🙂
aww thanks Elizabeth!
I see! Too bad it's not available anymore. I've been living in leggings recently.
Love the chic and sophisticated cape collar design of the coat! Beautiful look great for the office or a professional meeting!

So I just checked and while it looks like it's unavailable online, it is still available in select Target stores! http://bit.ly/1qGYXAi Check the link and do a Find In Store. I found 1 store several miles away here in Dallas that did have it in stock. 🙂
Thanks for checking, Kileen! I'll look into it. ????
Yay! I found these available at my local Target and will be going after work to take a look at it.
Yay!!
I love the back tie on your coat! Absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you! I tried tying it around the bump originally but it looked a bit awkward lol.
