I...love this dress. At first I was a tad worried that I would look over-dressed doing normal, real life mom things in it, but once I slipped it on I thought, "oh, heck. It's just so awesome". The denim jacket was perf for it as well- toned it down a bit...honestly, I realized it didn't need it anyways. I do appreciate that jacket though! Fall staple, yo. 

I wore it to my weekend job, Summerbird, this past Saturday (the coolest consignment boutique in the CLT area, btw)- if you follow me on IG you saw me wearing it in my typical boutique mirror selfie. Ha-ha. That mirror and I are becoming old friends. Anywaays, the dress got several compliments...which, of course, made me feel more and more awesome in it. ;) Score one for the bump team.  

I'm actually wondering how long I can get away with wearing it into the Fall without looking a bit too summery...? Considering that it stays borderline hot here until about mid Oct, I think I should be allowed to sport it for a couple more months. Plus- it's a great dress for the bump. Yeh, I'll be wearing it for a while longer. So there.
