You caught me.

I’m wearing, yet another, LulaRoe dress. Guilty as charged. And yep, this isn’t even a maternity dress. WOOHOO!

One of my closet friends, Kelly, and her mom launched their LulaRoe business last month and so I hosted a popup shop at my house. Kelly unpacked this gorgeous “Ana” maxi dress and everyone was like, “MOLLY! TRY IT ON! IT WILL LOOK SO GOOD ON YOU!” I was hesitant, but I thought I’d give it a try…

Sometimes, you just need a dress that makes you feel AWESOME… a dress that has that “wow” factor… a dress that looks fancy, but actually feels like you’re wearing a giant pajama shirt (this is especially crucial in pregnancy…).

It’s been really fun to come up with different ways to dress up and dress down this maxi. Throw on a denim jacket or vest? Dressed down! Throw on a statement necklace and bold earrings? Dressed up! There are so many ways I could make it work for different occasions!

Also, how gorgeous is this handmade necklace from Sela Designs? Ashleigh is so talented AND has a huge heart, to boot! She donates 100% of her profits to various charities. I love her heart behind her business. Use code “SBMOLLYFREESHIP” for free shipping between now and the end of the year!
