Can a pregnant lady wear a non-maternity drop-waist dress?
Yesiree, Bob, she can!
Now, the key to the drop waist trend (which, I’ll be TOTALLY honest, I don’t typically LOVE), is to NOT belt your dress at the waist / chest. That creates an awkward figure / shape that you just don’t want.
I was able to snag this Prabal Gurung for Target cotton drop waist dress on clearance for $10 last week and I love it. It’s not my typical style, but it’s SO UNBELIEVABLY comfortable and super fun. Plus, it was $10. No brainer.
Now, I want to introduce you to my sweet blog friend Lindsay from Pursuit of Pink! She’s got an AWESOME giveaway for y’all today!
Hi everyone! I’m Lindsay and I blog over at Pursuit of Pink, which is my little place of happiness on the internet. I blog about all things that make me happy: beauty, personal style, home décor, recipes, organization and more. And yes, my favorite color is pink, so there is plenty of that great color all over my blog. I am a person who tries hard to stay positive and I certainly hope my blog is uplifting to each of my readers.
Through Pursuit of Pink, I hope to bring a little bit of positivity back to the internet. If you are looking for a place full of happiness, smiles and a silly gal who tries not to take herself too seriously, then please stop by. I love connecting with my readers; I truly believe we can all learn from each other (man that’s so cliché, but true). I’m all over social media too, so follow along on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. You’ll be sure to see plenty of pics of my hubby Tolar, our sweet pup JoJo, my growing baby bump (I’m pregnant with our first child and due only a month before Molly!) and our crazy adventures of living in the nation’s capitol.
Isn’t Lindsay ADORABLE? I love this girl!
Now, she is giving away a $25 gift card to the LOFT to one lucky still being [molly] reader. Enter now!
Happy YOLO Monday! Each week, Carly & I select a few of our favorite posts from the Monday before to feature. It’s a great way to put the spotlight on a few of y’all each week! Please be sure to link up an ACTUAL post, not just a link to your main page. Our favs from last week?

Thanks so much for featuring my Curry Carrot & Rutabaga Soup! I appreciate the shout out.
I have been skeptical of the drop-waist trend as I’ve spent most of my adult life searching for clothes that make me appear to have a waist. But this dress looks great on you!
