Found! *UPDATED*
After my alleged breakdown in the dressing room of Macy’s on Saturday, I managed to find something to wear to the much-anticipated nuptials of our dear friend Zach and Blair (those would be the nuptials that James and Jennifer ARE COMING HOME TOMORROW FOR.)
A little angel named Val (not me, another Val) read of my plight and sent me a lovely email letting me know of a certain dress recently purchased by her sister who is also in a delicate condition. I’ll be honest, I gasped with gratitude - and to think that she *apologized* for giving me unsolicited advice. Let it be remembered and known that I am Southern; the unsolicited advice is all I’m accustomed to getting (and giving).
So today I went over to Short Pump and picked up this little number:
(Just imagine me shorter, paler, and not pressing myself against a wall.)
Rather than making me look enormously fat, it makes me look pregnant. And, I’m just gonna say it, it makes certain assets look phenomenal. I say that because it’s a big moment for me - I haven’t felt that anything on me has looked phenomenal in many, many weeks.
So thanks, Val. You’re a peach.
*UPDATE*
I wore the dress to the wedding and I must say, I looked SLAMMIN. I have to wear it again this weekend and I cannot wait.

Yes, I’m finding the knit dresses that are hot this season are designed with the biggest celebrity *in* of late in mind. PREGNANCY. I’ve tried on a few, and - after losing 20+ pounds, I’ve found they show off bumps/lumps that I didn’t even have BEFORE i lost the weight. Skinny chicks are running around in them, and they just look trampy (and fatter than than they actually are). The only people who look good in them are the glorious pregnant ladies. BUY THEM UP!
Wow….I kind of feel like a big deal right. And I’m super glad it worked out for you. Best of luck knocking everyone’s socks off.
Nice! Sweet price, too, and you can dress it up or down. Way to go, Val and Val!
Great dress!
Hooray! Ain’t the internet a beautiful place? It’s cute, affordable AND has room for a little fetus. Yay!
