Collaboration with Pink Blush Maternity

        When Alisha from PinkBlush Maternity contacted me to do a collaboration I was over the moon! Living in a small town, there aren't any maternity stores nearby (the closest one is two hours away) and a lot of my clothes shopping has to be done online. Being a first time mom and trying to find stylish maternity clothes that you know will fit and embrace your bump online only can be hard. However, with PinkBlush Maternity I wasn't worried. From their user friendly website that has the measurements and pictures of their clothes from every angle I knew exactly what I was getting and didn't feel worried about the clothes not fitting.

        I absolutely love this cute maternity dress! Look how adorable it looks with my bump! I would wear it even when I am not pregnant! It is so stylish! Even when I went out people didn't even think it was a maternity dress and I got so many compliments wearing it. The dress fits true to size, I am wearing a size Medium.

         Since the pattern is so pretty you don't need any big accessories to dress it up. I wore a long gold necklace, but even that wasn't necessary. If my feet weren't so swollen and I could fit into my wedges I feel like it would make the outfit even cuter. But as you can see, sandals work very well with it too. I know when I wear it again when I am not pregnant and my feet are back to normal I will wear it with my wedges.

      My experience with PinkBlush Maternity has been FABULOUS! Here are just some other beautiful pictures that I took with the dress. I just LOVE how great the dress goes with the scenery!
