As you can imagine, the past few weeks have been so busy.
But we did manage to have a gathering of our closest friends to celebrate our baby girl's impending birth.
For the party, I wore clothes that still managed to fit me.
Mango cardigan last worn here (with fur), my magic Alexander McQueen skirt first worn here
and then as a dress here. I can't believe I still managed to make it fit my 33 week belly!
(Yes, I have just about 7 weeks to go.. yikes!!!)
Accessories are Patrizia Pepe leather bangles and Martin Margiela iridescent pumps.
Oh and ofcourse the necklace :).
A gift from my sister-in-law.
It's really quite exquisite... made up of rice pearls, swarovski crystals, semi-precious stones and shells.
Sharing some of our party details...
Souvenirs for our guests, hot chocolate mix in nursery rhyme tin cans (doubles as coin bank).
Our Lex&Lynn ambigram tags are left overs from our 2006 wedding.
For the kids, little board books.
Gorgeous diaper cake made by a dear friend.
12 days of Christmas chocolate bars
Christmas Nutcracker cupcakes
These are non-alcoholic :).
One of the activities for our guests, Baby's first Alphabet Coloring book.
The vintage Bingo notebook was bought in etsy.
The happy couple :).
Our little girl's loot. We're in trouble, haha :).
