You will be mine

I have mentioned how I am not going to purchase anymore maternity clothes. I am soo over them. That being said, I am now allowing myself to look at normal clothes and I love this dress.




It will be mine.



But the dilemma is -- what size to get? Do I purchase it in my pre baby size or go up a size or 2, then get it altered once I get back to a normal size?



It could be a goal dress -- I could wear it this summer when Baby M is baptised!

The dress is Ann Taylor Loft. Anyone seen any coupons floating around?

I was a fan of that dress, but I knew that it wouldn't look good on me! I would go up a size. Hope it works for you :)

I was JUST looking at this dress online this afternoon. LOVE IT! No coupons unless you work in education and then you can get 15% off.

That dress IS super cute! I love the colors in it and so much of their spring line!

This is adorable! I've never been pregnant and have no idea how easily/quickly the weight will come off, so I'm no help there! But it would be great for baby M's baptism!

i'm so struggling with the same thing! i posted a dress earlier today and really want to order it, but have no idea what size. i think i'll go up a couple of sizes and then have it tailored to fit as i lose weight--hopefully! :)

That dress is darling!

I would go up a couple of sizes, just so you have material to work with. After my first, I lost the weight pretty quickly, but uh, it was distributed differently, so I wore a bigger size. HTH!

So cute! I would go up a size. Like you said, you can always have it altered.

OMG, I LOVE this dress. I found your blog through the recommendations on my google reader. I am on hold with Ann Taylor loft as we speak trying to see if they have any of these left. Wishful thinking. The nude shoes went perfectly. I hope you wore those. Cute blog=)
