Apologies for the title; that’s a lot of acronyms! Lace Little Black Dress for New Year’s Eve. I wore this cute little lace dress for my New Year’s Eve/Birthday party this year. I actually bought it last year to wear to a party we were attending while visiting friends in Washington, D.C. but I was so tired by the time we got there and had dinner that I didn’t feel like changing. Plus, it was really cold and I just wanted to be comfortable. The original plan this year was to wear it with thick black tights and a cute pair of ankle boots, but since I was warm in my house, I just threw on some flats. They’re must easier for this mama-to-be to walk around in anyway!
This isn’t a maternity dress as you probably gathered from the fact that I bought it last year, but with me not working and therefore not having a clothing budget anymore, I have to make do with what I have. I think it worked okay. I was a little concerned about the length, as I don’t normally like wearing dresses this short (unless it’s summer, then I might make an exception) but Nick repeatedly assured me it was okay. I probably should have worn some tights anyway.
On my birthday, I was 28 weeks+1 day pregnant, and I just couldn’t resist showing off the bump!
Happy birthday to me!

So cute! I do feel like the booties would have looked killer with this though. What did the booties look like? That’s my only thought on this because the dress is stunning on you!
Thanks Aidan. The boots would have looked great; they’re plain black ankle boots (that come right up to my ankles, so not very tall) with a stiletto heel. The same boots I wore with this dress a few years ago: http://www.ncsquaredlife.com/i-have-a-thing-for-green-dresses/
After seeing those booties from the link you soooo should have worn those booties!!!! They are so amazing looking!
