I snagged this maternity dress at Target on super sale last week and I kind of love it. Not only because, you know, it fits me and has POCKETS, but also because I love the color. ALTHOUGH, this dress is one of those colors that I’m not entirely sure what color it is. Like, is this dress pink or is it purple? I mean, I guess it could be fuchsia, but even then I’m not convinced it’s fuchsia either. So, what color do YOU think this dress is? I’m honestly curious. 🙂
Also, on a side note, I just want to say thank you to all you guys who come back day after day and read this blog and comment and follow along and even send “Get Well” wishes to my husband. Y’all rock. For real.
Now I want you to meet Katie from …For Lauren and Lauren! Katie is one of my best blogging buddies. I started reading her blog last year and INSTANTLY fell in love with her sweet personality, her adorable style, and her unashamed love of the Lord. Seriously. This girl has a HUGE heart! AND she’s pregnant, too! She has such an inspiring story on her journey to becoming a mom. She is going to be an AMAZING mom and it’s been awesome to have her to talk to throughout this little journey of my own.
Katie is SO kind and so awesome to give one of my readers and adorable black and white striped infinity scarf MADE by Katie! How awesome is that?! She’s wearing a similar one in grey and white in the photo below. Check it out:

I would call it purple, though I definitely see your dilemma. If you called it pink I wouldn’t correct you. Dang you Target being all confusing with your colors! 🙂
hahaha i know, dang target!!
What a cute look! I love how you layered the shirt & jacket over the dress!
thank you so much!
You are looking fantastic mommy-to-be! I am glad to link back after a long time. Check Out my First Outfit, after Pregnancy. Thank You. =)
aw thank you so much, ada!
Molly, you look cuter and cuter by the day with your baby bump! I love your look here, very chic! 🙂

aw thank you so much, richa!
Molly I LOVE the way the cardigan under the denim looks! You’d think that would be one I would have figured out on my own by now but NOPE. I am going to try that this week for sure, so thank you for the inspiration.
p.s. You are looking adorable!!
xo,
Alyssa
aw well thank you so much, alyssa!
Fuschia or raspberry! Thanks for the great post & for hosting, & God bless!
ooooo raspberry!! great one!! thank YOU, laurie!
Great layering job. Thank you for the party!
thank you so much, biti!
I love that color on you!!! Is it magenta? Although I’ve seen a number of different jades I’d call magenta too… Whatever it is, it’s beautiful on you! And yay for pockets!
magenta is definitely a candidate! 🙂
Two of my favorite bloggers!!! yay!!! Love you both. And high five on this little Target number. They have a great maternity section. That’s where I got most of my stuff when I was pregnant!
aw thank you so much, shanna!
Whatever the color, you look great! Thanks for the link up!

Now, this is an especially tricky question because purples and pinks rarely photograph accurately (in my experience, at least). However, I believe it would be considered a “red-violet” — I have a blazer in a similar color. It was listed as fuchsia, but a friend told me there was no way it was. We looked at colors online and found “red-violet” to be the best match. Either way, it’s a great dress and looks fabulous on you!
i like your thinking, kate! red-violet it is!!
I’m hoping I win this one!!
me too, girl!!
LOVE these colors, your layering skills, and your accessories. SO CUTE!! 🙂 New follower!!
thank you so much, ana!! xoxo
You look beautiful! Love the hot pink with the denim, it makes it a little more casual!

thank you so much, chelsea!
I say fuchsia but really any dress with pockets is a winner in my book!
thank you so much, sarah!
You look ADORABLE, that dress is perfect! Hope hubby is a little better today!

All dresses should have pockets! And it looks pink to me . . . but I see what you mean, it kind of looks purple, too.
Are you and your hubby going to find out the gender of the baby?!
yeah, pink. purple. it’s all the same, right? and nope! we’re gonna let it be a surprise 🙂
Good for you! My friend/coworker had a baby last year and they didn’t find out. Needless to say, it was “hard” to pick out a present beforehand. We had a baby shower after she was born. It just added to the excitement!!
yeah that was our thinking. it’s one of life’s last surprises 🙂
I think all dresses should have pockets, right?! I’d call the color fuchsia.

amen to that, sharon!! 🙂
Everything in life is better with pockets. I think coffee cups should have pockets to keep cookies. I know. I’m brilliant.
That dress is fuchsia to me.

AGREED!! EVERYTHING is better with pockets! 🙂 🙂
Love your pink dress Molly! Such a beautiful color on you 🙂 And seriously your baby bump is adorable… you are glowing!
thank you so much, rachel!!!
I have a few items in that is-it-pink-or-is-it-purple color range, and I’ve decided to label that inbetween color “berry” on my style blog. Although there are still some fuchsia tags floating out there. 😉
so glad i’m not the only one that’s a little color blind! 🙂 thank you so much, jen!
I would probably classify the dress as fuchsia. But whatever color it is, it looks beautiful on you! 🙂

aw thank you so much, mary!
Oh I do love a dress with pockets!!! I’m going to go with the dress being more fuschia.
thank you so much, meagan!!
I love Katie’s blog 🙂
Super cute dress…I think I’d say it’s pink or magenta 🙂 Doesn’t Target have a great selection of maternity clothes? I’ve found several staples there at great prices!
katie is the best, isn’t she?! and thank you so much, beth!! 🙂 i love target!!
The little touch of floral in the cardigan really goes well with the strong coloured dress and the neutral denim – looks great! Thanks so much for hosting again. I have been a little silly today – have my Zoolander happening by the looks of it!!
aw thank you so much, charlie!!! <3
I love sweet Katie, too! And I also love how you layered your shirt and jacket!
me too!! she is the BEST! thank you so much, tiffany!
I would say pinkish purple. Pretty dress on you!

I think the dress is pink… But I could be wrong. 😉 I love you all with your baby bumps! I can’t wait until I have one of my own. 😉
i think i’m with you susannah, it’s more pink to me! 🙂 hehehe thank you so much!
You look soooo beautifully glowing Molly, this purple dress is a great find! And so exciting to “meet” another fellow blogger who is also pregnant! Feels like a baby boom:) It’s so funny that our babies will be the same age, we could open a kindergarten if lived closer:)
Many kisses
