Pregnant with Style: Shabby Apple Review and Giveaway
Week 3 of the project I secretly dubbed “Best Little Known Maternity Brands”.
As I mentioned before, I am going to introduce 1 relatively unknown awesome maternity company each week and give you guys an opportunity to win something. As I find maternity brands, other than the typical Gap, Old Navy, Pea in the Pod, etc, I will be writing about them here every Sunday. So far I have posts lined up till the end of the year, so come back every Sunday for a new discovery. Often enough the maternity items I will be reviewing are suitable for wear before pregnancy, as well as post-partum and during nursing, so even if you’re not currently pregnant or looking to get pregnant, don’t miss these.
SHABBY APPLE
I have always been a HUGE fan of Shabby Apple. I’ve known about their terrific dresses for quite a while, however only recently did I discover that Shabby Apple also carries a small but “oh-so-wonderful” maternity line. And their maternity dresses are just as glamorous and detailed as their women’s dresses.
I’ve been eyeing the Two’s Company (Da Vinci in non-maternity style) dress for a while, so I was completely stoked when I finally received it. I loved the idea of a simple yet detailed dress that feels and looks comfy, like something you’d wear instead of sweats and a tee to hang out with your friends and still look cozy, but not dumpy. The kangaroo pouch just made it an “inside joke” for the maternity version of the dress.
A simple dress at a first glance, Two’s Company is far from that. The puff sleeves add a sophisticated touch to the casualty of a grey jersey dress, the drop waist adds to the laid back look, the pouch up front reminds me of the comfort of a sweatshirt.
I felt and looked comfy and cute in the dress the second I put it on. This is what maternity should be about: adapting non-maternity styles to look fabulous whether you have a baby on the way or not.
The rest of the Shabby Apple’s line is just as fabulous if not better.
Some of my favorites are women’s dresses that look like a two piece outfit: a skirt and a blouse. How can you not love that? And have you seen Shabby Apple’s version of a little black dress? Yum!
There’s really no need for me to go on and on, because I think the dress selection speaks for itself- just look at it.

I’ve been eying the “fruitful” maternity dress for a while now, but I only have 6 weeks left until my due date, so it’s probably too late to get a new maternity dress!

I know that you are new to TBB. Please check their website, rules and the right owl. I’m fairly certain that asking for votes as part of a contest entry is not allowed.
