While pulling out my summer clothes from last year, I realized I needed to invest in a few additional pieces to accommodate my growing baby bump. I’ve stated this before, but when purchasing clothing while pregnant I have two thoughts in mind. 1. Can I wear this while pregnant? 2. Can I continue wearing this while NOT pregnant? Maternity clothing definitely serves its purpose and I’m not opposed to it at all, but I prefer to have pieces that can be worn during both times in my life so I can get the most out of my money. Enter this dress!
I came across this adorable little number while browsing Nordstrom the other day and knew it would be perfect for this season of life.Β It’s not a maternity dress, but yet is loose enough that I can totally pull it off for the next few months while my bump is starting to really pop. That’s such an important factor for maternity fashion…buy things that will allow you to grow! Not only is this coral color gorgeous, but I love the fringe detailing on this dress as well. And the off shoulder style is so perfect for summer! I loved pairing it with my favorite Alex and Ani bracelets – they always add a fun detail to any outfit!
I’m 16 weeks today, time is flying by for this pregnancy. I have some fun collaborations coming up, and I can’t wait to share them with you!

Cute dress and you look adorable in it. I can also see it with white slim plants or tights. You’re right about purchasing items that you can wear all the time. My son and daughter-in-law just blessed me with another grandson yesterday. Can’t wait to smother him in kisses as well as his older brother π

This dress is so cute, perfect for summer! I love your idea of buying non-maternity clothes so you can still wear them after baby!!
