The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more

A bit of an overdue weekend post here. Well my weekends are pretty long because i have mondays off to look after Henry so here's Monday's outfit. We went on a playdate and to the cinema so a pretty fun little day i decided to debut both this new River Island cardigan and also a new nail shade.  I say new in relation to the cardigan but i actually bought it a few weeks back but haven't had the chance to wear it yet. I'm not very adventurous when it comes to colour. I do try but my wardrobe has a massive black fetish. However with a hint of spring in the air and pretty pastel colours popping up everywhere, the colours in this cardigan really caught my eye. It's a really scatty mix of different textures of knit and colours and i tried it on with all black outfit and really thought it's what my wardrobe needs.  Also when i get into the later stages of pregnancy it will still fit and i can still benefit from the slimming effects of an all black outfit without bordering on funeral attire. As i was trying it on the shop assistant happened to mentioned that Rihanna had bought it at the Oxford circus branch. I'd like to think this didnt' cement it but what's good enough Ri-Ri! My only criticism is that i long for it to have pockets.

Whilst going for a little more colour, i though it the apt opportunity to trial my Pixi Glow nail varnish in Petticoat Pink. I saw this on Emma's blog and fell in love with it. As she says the pictures really do not do it justice, it is so bright and neon like, I'm glad i fake tanned this weekend, a bright nail really washes out my hands. The bump is rather large today so H&M black jersey dress and New Look Maternity black skinny jeans. Although not pictured went with old faithful Topshop nude ballet pumps. I do keep being tempted by studded loafers but just love these old faithful ballerinas...x Talia
