(fried) blonde hair from when I thought it would be a good idea to bleach my whole head, covered with grown out brown, and the ends of my hair literally GREEN from our Mexico trip that would not. I seriously had no clue what I was going to wear the week of, and I didn’t feel cute in anything I tried on until I miraculously stumbled upon this beautiful line (Thank you Chantel Marie for shooting their lookbook exactly when I needed a dress) For those of you who are and can’t seem to find that “perfect” maternity dress, look no further!
