J.Crew Pretty Ruffles Jersey Dress


This is the Paris Pink color .... it also comes in Dark Pewter.  I'm wearing a size small.  Could have worn an XS.


There is something I don't like about the arm holes and I usually hate dresses that have a little string belt unless I'm pregnant.   Notice you can kind of see underwear lines a little bit already. :/

Umm, everything looks amazing with this cardigan!

I gave this dress a shot when it was 20% off.  Love the color and the weight of the fabric, which is much heavier and more substancial than I was expecting.  However, as is typical with this 'jersey' fabric, it's still revealing and not very flattering in any place where it fits too close to the body.  I felt like once my belly started pulling more forward, thus pulling the dress fabric tigher against my butt, it would not be a pretty sight.  Plus, it didn't matter anyway because once I looked at this pics of this dress next to my other new dresses, it was a no brainer not to keep this one!  Part of me still loves it, but it's not a keeper for me when there are better things out there for me right now!

J.Crew Jessie Cotton Dress *Updated*



Here it is in Muted Grape in an extra small.




Rockin' the baby bump

Slub cotton on top, cotton lawn on the bottom, with a little ruffle in the middle!

Not too puffy, even prego!


For some reason, I feel cute in this dress.  It does come in an XXS, which to me means it runs big..... which, it probably does because I'm 5 months pregnant and the XS fits just fine with some extra room.  I didn't really need this, but the color sold me on it, plus like I said, something about it just makes me feel cute!

UPDATE:  After reading some iffy reviews about the possibly see-thruness of this dress, I've ordered this LOFT dress to see if it might be a better alternative.  I ordered it in a maternity XS and regular Small.  I'll come back and update when it arrives!
