It was this week last year that I was crazy pregnant enjoying the spring weather at my outdoor baby shower. Here we are a year later already, but now I am enjoying spring storms and showers.
Thankfully, instead of having a giant belly and penguin-walk like last year, I have an adorable 10 month old and am slowly working on getting my pre-baby body back. I gained a lot of weight during pregnancy, we are talking 50 pounds, but I am proud to say that I am just 8 pounds away from my pre-baby weight right now.
With that being said I don't dress like I used to. Adorable cute clothes are hard to find, especially since I am a larger size than I was once was. In a desperate attempt to add some clothes to my wearable collection, I gutted my closet to see what would still fit me from before baby. That is when I found this little polka-dot number.
This shirt has been in my collection for a few years; the ruffled bottom and zippered back attracted me to the shirt years ago, and seeing as how ruffles are huge right now, I knew it was perfect.
For a stormy Spring day I paired the top with my black skinny jeans and Hunter rain boots. I didn't feel like a lot of accessories were necessary with this ensemble, so I kept it simple with a pair of stud earrings.
Hopefully I will be back to my pre-baby weight by swimsuit season, but for now I am pretty proud of myself for how much weight I have lost so far. Now to prepare for today's predicted thunderstorms.
