9/4: What I wore

The occasion: Our friends’ beautiful wedding

wedding (2)

The dilemma: trying to find a non-frumpy dress with a growing belly, and not spend a lot of money since I would most likely never wear it again

The answer: BCBG

dress

It looks black in the pic, but was actually more of a green color. Loved the fit, and especially loved the back of the dress

Accessories were pretty simple:

accessries

Clutch: DSW (old)

Necklace: Express

Bracelet and earrings: gifts from the Pilot 🙂

Shoes: Aldo

shoes

Since they weren’t high at all (maybe 3 in?) I could shenanigan and dance the night away comfortably 😉

  12. Amanda on September 5, 2011 at 3:31 pm

    That dress is perfect! You’re right about the back, I think it makes the dress!

  13. kathleen on September 5, 2011 at 3:47 pm

    i love the dress! laughed at your comment about the heels… 3 inches is HUGE for me!! i am 5’11 as it is, so add 3 inches and i’m a tower!

    Gina you look…AMAZING! The shot of you in the sunlight, with your back facing us and also just against the railing…soooo beautiful!

    And great goals: find a non-frumpy dress with a growing belly, and not spend a lot of money since I would most likely never wear it again

    You succeeded!!!!!

  15. Stephanie on September 5, 2011 at 4:56 pm

    It really is a lovely colour! And the papier mache people in that last pic…kind of scare me. Ha!

  16. christina on September 5, 2011 at 6:41 pm

  17. Sana on September 5, 2011 at 7:24 pm

  19. Katie @ Plates and Paste on September 5, 2011 at 9:11 pm

    • Fitnessista on September 5, 2011 at 11:45 pm

  20. ilovefetacheese on September 5, 2011 at 10:23 pm

    GORGEOUS DRESS!! I’m saying this with complete honesty, you are one of the most beautiful pregnant woman! 🙂 I hope I can be as pretty and stylish as you!

    • Fitnessista on September 5, 2011 at 11:44 pm

      you’re a sweetheart- thank you! i appreciate the compliments, because during pregnancy it’s easy to feel awkward and not-so-cute <3

  21. Ali @ urbanfruitbat on September 5, 2011 at 10:29 pm

    You looked so spiffy! And, what they heck were those things you were standing with in the last pic/…?

    • Fitnessista on September 5, 2011 at 11:43 pm

      life-sized papier mache bride and groom!

  22. Nicole @ Giraffelegs on September 5, 2011 at 10:31 pm

    I actually really like the dress! I think you could pull it off again =)

  23. LisaG on September 6, 2011 at 9:31 am

    I love your green dress; my favorite color! It looks great on you.

  24. Brittany on September 6, 2011 at 9:46 am

    Hottie! Love the outfit. That dress is definitely re-wearable after you have the babes; if it’s too big at that point, I bet it would be adorable shortened to a mini-dress and belted. 🙂

  25. KatieG. @ Just Roll With It on September 6, 2011 at 4:01 pm

    Love the dress and accessories! Super cute, simple, and very flattering!!

  26. Julie S. on September 6, 2011 at 4:57 pm
