This was a fun sundress I created for a spring wedding when I was slightly pregnant with my daughter. I used an old one piece coolot outfit I had from college to get the rough pattern and then adjusted it to remove the shorts and change it into a skirt. The style was perfect for covering a little baby bump and can still be worn today – minus the bump! 🙂 I added the white detail below the bust to soften the look and to jazz it up while still remain a simple but classic look.
