Red, Black and Shiny Straight Hair.

Even-though my belly is quite small at (just now) 24 weeks, I love and in a way cannot believe how I have gotten away with my normal clothes thus far. (I am expecting all the pregnancy clothes my mom got me, to arrive this week.) Yes, most bottoms, especially pants are getting kind of tight but I am keeping them half zippered or trying to wear them really low (like I did here). However, I own a lot of loose-style tops and a lot of T-shirt material tops so those have helped me in two ways: 1) keeping me cool from this very hot summer we are continuing through (now we have this Indian summer going) and 2) laying over nicely and not tight around my belly. After all a tiny little creature is growing there and it is a small place as it is, I do not want to make the baby more uncomfortable.

I love this beautiful colorblocked top from The Limited. The red is such a vivid color and I repeat these are the colors of my country's flag so every time I wear this top I have some Albanian Pride going on, especially since this year our country celebrates 100 years of Independence. The crops are also from The Limited which in case you didn't know it is one of my top 3 favorite stores, probably number one. I should own stock in the company for as much as I wear them and advertise them for free. LOL Ohh and I am just noticing from the pictures that it was a good hair day so that's a bonus. =) And, if my memory remembers correctly, I have previously paired these pants (at least once before) with similar bright, vivid red on top. While that outfit is similar, I still feel these two outfits are different enough.
