Oh my gosh I’m so excited to write about today’s outfit! I actually got this polka dot dress from a friend about two months ago and I absolutely fell in love with it. I wanted to post it, but it wasn’t for sale anywhere online except in white and black and I wanted to feature the exact dress if I was going to write about it for you guys. Well, I just about squealed for joy when I was browsing the internet yesterday looking for clothes for our vacation next week and I stumbled upon the dress. I was so excited to see it available online because I just think it’s one of the cutest dresses ever! And I mean, a polka dot dress is just perfect for Spring! It would be such a cute Easter dress!

I think I was about 19 or 20 weeks pregnant when we took these photos. So my belly was a lot smaller than it is now. And as you can see from the photos, my bump does make the dress a little shorter on one side. However, this would be perfect if you’re really early in your pregnancy (aka you have a small bump) or if you’re not pregnant at all! It is, after all, NOT a maternity dress so it’s not even meant to be worn when you’re pregnant. It also comes in a black and white polka dot print and a navy straight print. They’re both super cute and honestly I’m tempted to get all three. But let’s face it, I have a ton of clothes, so I think I’m good settling for just one of the options right now 😉 Oh and it is totally breastfeeding friendly for any breastfeeding momma’s out there!

And beyond the dress, I really love everything about this entire look. I think my tan satchel/purse is just so cute and I love how well it’s constructed. The stitching on the sides makes it look extra expensive even though it’s not. And my fringe heels are ridiculously comfortable and really cute too! I added some simple jewelry, like a pair of pineapple earrings (which are coming on my vacay with me!), a cuff bracelet and a simple gold ring. Oh and of course two dozen fresh pink roses! Ha! I’m always going out and buying fresh flowers for the house so I tend to turn those opportunities into a mini photo shoot. They just look so pretty in photos!
Anyway, I hope you guys adore this outfit as much as I do! I’m so excited that I was able to share it with you since it’s one of my favorites ever! And how cute is that blue wall behind me? I want to live in that house! Let me know what you think of the look in the comments below!

I don’t often like the polka dot pattern, but I think you wear it so well, Ali! The polka dots are so subtle and the shade of your dress is beautiful. 🙂

I agree. They are so subtle and sophisticated!
Hi Ali
I’m a fan of polka dots. I bought some pretty yellow daffodils the other day to brighten my day. Your whole outfit is adorable! 🍍
(I like the blue wall/house too)
I LOOOOVE daffodils! I never see them in CA. My mom always had them growing at our house growing up in Massachusetts.
Ok, I am obsessed with your wedding rings! So beautiful!
Also, love the dress. You’re glowing!!
Thanks Theresa! I love them too but they need some serious cleaning! Ha!
Perfect spring dress! What size did you go with? I always feel like for wrap dresses I need to size up, otherwise it pulls/is too revealing!
Mine is a medium, which is my normal size. But it doesn’t fit with my bump anymore! Ha! But I can’t wait to wear this again after I have this baby. It’s breastfeeding friendly after all!
I absolutely love the dress!! Can I ask what size you went with? I recently had a baby and am still carrying some extra baby weighting my mid section, would this dress hide it?
I am wearing a medium. I think this dress would be great for you because the material is really thick so it won’t show everything. If you look at the reviews on Nordstrom, everyone loves how sturdy ad thick the fabric is!
You look adorable!!!
Thank you Luna!!!!
Ali! I have to know where you got mollys blue dress hat she had in your story today. I’m obsessed! Every time I see it I try to find it for my daughter and can’t. Can you let me know where you got it? Thanks 😉
Ali,
I absolutely fell in love not only with your dress, but with everything this dress hides below.
You look amazing!
Hi Ali!! Could a laptop fit in that purse?
This outfit looks very cute. Subtle and graceful. You are looking good in it.
