dressing the bump {Pink Blush}

The Arizona summer heat I've heard (and dreaded) so much about has finally made it's appearance... and my bump thought this would be the perfect time to show up as well, ha ha! From what I hear, neither one (the heat or my bump) will disappear before October so it's time I learn how to dress my growing body when I'd rather wear nothing more than a swim suit. Yes, we will be spending copious amounts of time at the pool, but I do have to wear real clothing when I'm not swimming ;) I thought I would be buying all the maternity shorts I could get my hands on but I'm quickly learning that dresses are the way to go! So much more comfortable, not to mention light and airy which is what I need in the triple digit heat!
Pink Blush Maternity became my saving grace as they sent me this gorgeous floral maternity dress (as well as this dress that also accommodates nursing as well as the before and after baby body, and the tunic from my 22 week "bumpdate")! Pink Blush has the CUTEST clothing (maternity AND non maternity) which is obviously a necessity, but my favorite part is that these dresses will be so flattering when dressing my post baby body after our little man arrives! Getting dressed with a bump and/or during the in between stage of getting back in shape after having a baby isn't always the funnest, so I'm thrilled to have these cute options to choose from that will make me feel beautiful for many, many months to come!
If you're on the hunt for beautiful, affordable clothing no matter your body type, I would highly recommend checking out Pink Blush! And I apologize in advance if you get sick of these outfits... they will definitely be worn weekly from here until... forever ;)
