Today Meg from Meg O. On the Go, Michelle from The Vintage Apple and Magen from MMM Style and I all met up at the Houston Arboretum & Nature Center. The ladies had their little ones in tow and it was so fun to see them all—especially Michelle’s little three and a half month old baby since I’m expecting so soon!
Here’s a shot of the three of us (Magen was running after her adorable twin girls!):
The dress I’m wearing is new—from Forever 21 and super affordable. I saw it in the “maxi dress” section on Forever 21’s website last week and then I remembered that Kristen had mentioned it in her “recent spring purchases” post. So yes, this is the second dress of hers I’ve copied 😉 what can I say? She’s got great taste!
Dress- Forever 21; Necklace- Stella & Dot c/o; Sweater- Zara (old); Shoes- Reef
The dress was a steal at $15.80—though I wish the chest part was a little more fitted. I think it’s a little too loose, but it’s a comfy dress and such a great color that I looked past the fit of the top. These days comfort is king. I also think it would also look super cute with wedges—but since we were walking a lot I decided against it. I purchased a size medium. I’m not sure if a small would have fit in the bottom part but the top might have worked better.
Thank you for all of the sweet comments on my baby shower post! It was such a fun day 🙂 This upcoming week is pretty busy. My husband and I are going to the Sigur Ros concert on Tuesday evening (one of our favorite bands) and then my friend Heather is flying into Houston on Thursday and we have a girls spa day planned Friday. I can’t wait to relax and catch up with her. Then Saturday is my baby shower hosted by Candice for my friends. I am one lucky gal, definitely feeling the love!
Wishing everyone a happy Sunday! 🙂
Another beautiful maxi! That color looks so much prettier than it does on the website. You look great!

Super jealous you got to hang with Meg & Michelle! I have that same dress & wore it today, was it also super itchy for you?
@katie- the dress wasn't itchy but it definitely could have been lined with cotton to be more breathe able in warmer weather 🙂
it looks so great on you! you're so cute, thanks for the sweet words! i wore it today for my maternity photos (with the mint one too) and it looked amazing with the nature background. the dress is so comfy!
Beautiful dress, and beautiful mama!! 🙂

Great to see you, Veronika!! We had such a great time!! Thank you for inviting us! I had no idea Sigur Ros was coming to Houston…. love them!!!
You look awesome! I loved both this dress and the mint dress you wore to your shower.
Okay, we have the exact same tastes! I am cracking up because I had this dress in my basket just last week and I forgot to order it before I left work. It looks great on you, so I am definitely going to purchase it now 🙂
Love Michella at TVA! What a super fun get together!
I love that dress. It is stunning on you! And I'm sure you'll enjoy it post-pregnancy as well which is a bonus!

Both your baby shower dress & this dress are both so pretty! Lovely colors for Spring 🙂 Can't wait to see you with your baby girl!
You are the queen of maxis V! They look perfect on your tall frame! I love the coral paired with the hot pink bag 🙂
What a beautiful dress, and it doesn't look like it cost you so little either! 🙂 It makes you look refreshed and super sweet.
That color is gorgeous on you!
Love the color of your dress!! I might have to go check it out!

You look wonderful and that color is great on you! With the heat wave starting here in Florida and I'm not due until July, I feel like I'm probably going to be living in maxi dresses 🙂 It looked like you had a lot of fun at your shower!
