Wearing: Hoolihan Cargo Pants by Soon Maternity

We all have goals in life that we work towards at some point or another. Some are big things like world peace and climbing everest, buying our first house, first car, finding the perfect man to marry. Others are smaller/simpler things like eating healthy for a month, quitting the ciggies and promising ourselves to exercise more.

Some things are easy to tick off and others not so much. One of the things that comes back, we set them periodically hoping that one day will tick them off and our list will grow shorter but realistically it never does. Each season I set myself a goal to find myself the perfect pair of pants. This winter I was well on the way to doing so and then all of a sudden I found myself knocked up and facing a whole new ball game of challenges. How on earth was I ever going to find the perfect pair of maternity pants. These guys were pretty good they hugged me in the right spots, made my butt look amazing and I wore them day in and day out but as the weather got warmer and warmer I needed to find something comfortable that didn’t have so many layers.

I might be making a huge call here people but through my travels and with thanks from the team at Soon Maternity I think I may have just found the perfect pair of pants and I’m not just saying that because they are the next part of the challenge, these pants are seriously amazing and they may just be the best pants I have ever worn. They hug me in all of the right spots, they make me feel like a million bucks and a few weeks ago I even caught my husband and his mates checking me out from behind, Now for a heavily woman that is a total compliment.

See for yourself, don’t I look AMAZING! Those pants, they really do have magical powers.


This week is the final installment of the Soon Maternity Style Challenge and I have to say I’m a little sad to see it coming to an end. This challenge has really pushed me to step outside my comfort zone, put an effort into what I’m wearing and made me prepare weekly photo shoots for the blog. I’m 31 weeks now so I really hope I can keep it going and make it all the way through to the end because it really has been a whole lot of fun.

I think they have really saved the best bit for last as this outfit really has to be my all time favourite. I was really going for serious and sexy in the shoot but I don’t think I quiet got there this time and it looks like heavily pregnant woman who may just pass out from the heat because it was seriously hot, in fact the day I took these photos my car kept telling me it was 46 degrees. How nuts is that. I’d love to go back and re-shoot this outfit in a few weeks time when it’s not so hot and miserable.
