Summer Dress

Today marks the 30-day countdown to baby’s arrival, which is hard to believe! We’re checking off to-do lists, stocking up on baby essentials, and putting final touches on the nursery in full force. I’ve absolutely loved being pregnant and am honestly sad to have this phase end, though I know we’re about to experience a whole new level of joy and love when our daughter makes her appearance in a few short weeks. While I’m definitely going to miss the bump and feeling her movements, it’s also exciting to realize that my wardrobe options will open up again. I’ve managed to make it through pregnancy only buying one pair of maternity jeans and some new bras, and it’s worked but has been a trade off for limited options.

Now I know my pre-pregnancy bod won’t magically reappear this fall, so for some extra motivation to get back in tip-top shape, I’ll be hanging this effortlessly chic See By Chloé dress in my closet (a total summer steal at half price, though unfortunately it looks like I snagged the very last one). I love the playful geometric pattern and backless design—it’ll be perfect for sunny days and al fresco dinning. Can’t wait to wear it next summer!

By the way, Matchesfashion.com wins for prettiest packaging of any online order I’ve ever received in the mail. I’m tempted to order again just to get another marbleized box! If you haven’t checked out the site, there are some treasures in their “style steals” section and now’s the perfect time to buy a little something fun on major sale–to wear now or save for later. A few other dresses I love: this DVF cream dress, this oxford stripe dress, this embroidered shift dress, and this navy lace dress.
