Sweet Pea Maternity Dress Review & Giveaway – Springing Into Summer Fun {CLOSED}

No, I’m not pregnant (not yet anyways), but my best friend, my sister-in-law, and a lot more acquaintances that I know are. Much to my husband’s chagrin, I have been perusing the maternity clothes websites, really, just to help out my friend, but, I have noticed a lot of cute tops and dresses lately! It makes me wonder why they didn’t have all these adorable outfits when I was pregnant! Then again, I was working 40+ a week and pretty much lived in my maternity jeans, a collared shirt or pjs! With our next pregnancy, I’ll be home with a toddler, so I’m staking out all my clothing options now! 

Sweet Pea Maternity offers a wide variety of flattering yet thrifty clothes with an exclusively online only shop! Cutting out the middle man means passing savings on to you and no matter your situation, saving money is always a good thing in my book! I was able to snag the Blue Waffle Sleeve Maxi Dress. It is a dress I know I can wear at any stage of my pregnancy and at any time of the season down south. It’s made of a slightly heavy jersey cotton that lets you either go from day to night. In the spring or fall, a nice white cardigan over it will help keep you warm and in the summer, a comfy pair of sandals will complete the look. The dress is no longer available, but, the site offers many like it.

I’m 5’3″ and as par the course, maxi dresses tend to be a touch too long on me. (They were also out of my size, so I went up a size, knowing the more room for the belly, the better!) But, if you’re brave enough to rock a pair of platforms while pregnant, you won’t have to worry about it touching the ground. Pre-pregnancy, and even with a fuller chest, I found the deep v to be a little too much and found placing a cami underneath (or as my in-laws call it, “the modesty panel”), I don’t have to worry about pulling it over and finding clothing tape to keep it shut. Just something to keep in mind if you don’t become all chest during pregnancy! I also love how the dress flows, with folds and will offer plenty of room for an expanding stomach while leaving the bottom part flirty around your ankles. 

Unless I get a request from my friend to borrow it (which she’s more than welcome to!), I have this dress tucked safely away in my closet, just waiting for me to wear it. The color looks great on any skin tone and the dress style is perfect for any occasion you’ll need to go to. So, rock that bump!
