The style-savvy star finished her look with a brown vegan leather trench coat and a gold Bottega Veneta mini cross-body bag costing £990.

Stacey has been treating herself to a few bits before the baby comes along - including a multipocket baguette back from Fendi coning in at an eye-watering £3,300.

"My penultimate day of work before the baby comes," she posted on Instagram yesterday.

"I haven't got a steriliser yet, but I have got this completely impractical bag for expectant mothers so DON'T WORRY, (I'm gonna be great at this clearly)."

With her due date getting closer and closer, Stacey slammed herself for going on a designer shopping spree as she prepares to become a mum.

She told her followers: "What kind of a moron selects a hospy outfit for the baby's arrival?

"A vegan trench and a denim mani... Me, appaz."

Stacey's pals are also counting down the days until the baby arrives.

Denise Welch wrote: "I'm so excited for you both."

Stacey wrote: “Gaaaaaaang... We are having a baby! So bloody delighted. Kev, you're magic, I love youuuu.

The star recently said she had been in tears over pregnancy anxiety.

Stacey said: “I was on the sofa the other day and I welled up because I thought, what if it has no mates? I mean, it's not born.

“What if it has no pals? What if it has, you know. What if it gets teased?

“I'm worrying about all of these things. Kev’s like, Stace go and have a cup of tea.”

She added on Alex Jones: Making Babies: “But my pal said to me, Stacey, when you get your baby, it's like your heart has literally left your body and you are holding it and then over the years, it's just walking around and you're in a constant state of anxiety and pride.

“And I thought, why am I doing this to myself? But I’m assured it’s worth it. It sounds like a special sort of torture!”
