I was really excited to wear this dress tonight. I bought it right after I had Chloe, but haven’t actually worn it yet.
So, I strutted my stuff into HurryDate and not two minutes before the event was about to begin, one of the guys casually asked me when I was due. WHEN I WAS DUE!!!!!!
My eyes filled with tears before I even had a second to think about it. Seriously, what the heck? After I said excuse me, and only after he again repeated the question, did I decide to make this a teaching moment. I raised my voice so that the surrounding men could hear and informed them that even if the girl looks like she is about to give birth tomorrow, you NEVER ask when she is due.
What’s even more awful about that guy, is that he ended my night by asking me out. To lunch. Even though I told him I was HAPPILY married. His take on things was that there must be days in my marriage I’m not happy, so those would be the days I could call him. I reminded him he previously thought I was pregnant, and he told me he hadn’t really cared. He was okay with stepchildren.
And with that story, I present to you my maternity pick-up dress. (Click pictures for a larger image)
{The grassy area outside my apartment.}
Dress is Pettycoat Alley from TJ Maxx and the knee high socks are from TJ Maxx as well. Button up sweater is Guess…and I have to thank Marisa for letting me borrow it. She may never see it again.
{I do attitude so well, I thought, why not?}
Tank top is an old Hanes one I’ve had forever. I can find a way to fit a white tank into any outfit. Fashionable or not. Tiffany ring is a christmas gift from my man. The necklace is so old I don’t even remember where it’s from. Does that mean it’s vintage?
My most favorite motorcycle boots ever. (Forever 21)
{My sweet girl. I think it’s time she gets in on the fashion posts. There will be a day I have to pass the torch, so I need to get used to sharing the spotlight now.}
The leg warmers and headband are both from etsy. The ‘I make boys cry’ onesie is a hand me down from two of her cousins.
The pink silk dress is another hand me down from her cousins, and the headband is from Kensie Poo on etsy.
Have a great holiday weekend!
