I’ve been loving the longer, simpler silhouettes this summer, not just for their flattering qualities, but also for the fact that they allow my dresses to play double duty as tops. You might remember this one from last year when I was pregnant. I tried my best to find pieces I would be able to wear again and this workhorse of an LBD has worked equally well as maternity wear and a post-pregnancy dress. Looser-fitting pieces like this are necessary for surviving the DC heat!

I do love that dress! And the little tie detail is so much fun!
This heat has been SOOO crazy. Hoping it dies down a teeny bit, haha. I don’t want to wish away Summer but I want to be able to walk outside and still be able to breathe 😉

I just love those jeans. They are the perfect width, not too wide in the flare. So good with your double duty top! You were always so chic while pregnant! I need to look back and take some notes.
