dress: c/o persunmall (here)
tights: anthropologie
boots: steve madden (here in black, and similar here)
So I never used to like yellow clothes at all. I just always thought that I couldn’t wear them, because it didn’t look good with my skin tone. And then I got some mustard tights and my views changed. So I decided, on a whim, to get this mustard dress also, because why not, and hey! I actually like it! And I don’t know, it kind of looks okay, right? So, my relationship with the condiment is still non-existent (NOT a fan of mustard) but the color? The color is a-okay in my book.

What an adorable little baby bump! I obviously haven’t visited in way too long because I didn’t know you were expecting… congrats! LOVE the dress :)
Katie
Aww thanks girly! Don’t be a stranger! ;)

Rachel
You definitely pull off the yellow really well!
I like the color tights that you paired it with, and the brown leather. :)

That dress is adorable on you! I’m one who still believes I can’t wear mustard, but I must admit that I’ve never really tried… :P
Katie
Yeah, I hadn’t tried either! Don’t knock it til you try it- you might be surprised! :)

Ashley
Cute dress! You can definitely pull mustard off. Is that the pregnancy ring (haha I don’t know what else to call it… 2nd ring?) you are wearing? It looks gorgeous! :)
Katie
Haha YES, it’s the “pregnancy ring”- I like that. I’m super paranoid that my actual rings will get stuck on my finger!

Ashley
So glad you decided to wear mustard…it looks amazing on you!! And your bump is ridiculously cute.
Katie
Awww thanks miss Ashley!! :)

Super cute!! You look great in it! I feel the same way about the color mustard on me, but I like just yellow things too. I’m too not a huge fan of just plain mustard. But I do like mustard enhanced foods. Like this BBQ sauce that has a mustard base from Trader Joe’s, super good!
Katie
Ughhhh Trader Joe’s is my weakness! But I just cannot do mustard in anything! Never have been a fan. But the color? The color I can do! :)

i used to be the same way with yellow. my skin tone base is yellow, so i never thought of it as a color i could pull off until i too discovered the amazingness that is mustard yellow. :) such a cute baby bump!
Katie
Aw thanks sweet girl! So funny how we automatically assume we can’t wear something, and then happen to try it and it’s like, “oh! So I CAN!” :)

Ann
That color looks fabulous on you!! I am obsessed with mustard yellow! You are seriously the most adorable pregnant lady! I hope I pull pregnancy off half as well as you do :)

Hey Katie,
I am back! I am sure you missed my comments. :P
You look great girl! What did you do? Get pregnant?! Just joking.
Did you come up with a name yet or are you sticking with my French suggestion? ;)
Yellow is not a white girls color in my opinion but mustard is not yellow. It is not, really!
What else is new with you? I know, I know I should start reading all your posts that I have missed in the past three weeks.
It is just not that easy, I have a baby you know! :P
xoxo, Eszter

Still haven’t agreed upon a name yet!! I’m convinced we’re going to be naming him in the hospital delivery room! ;) I agree- mustard is NOT yellow! Glad you’re back- of course I missed you!

You and your bump are sooo cute in that dress! Don’t you love this California weather where we don’t have to bundle up? However, I am doing quite a few rain dances to bring it our way ;)
Katie
YES, I kind of feel bad hearing about all of these crazy cold/wintery/snowy conditions in other states, while we’re over here having a nice 65 degree day! Oh, California. We seriously desperately need rain, though! I can’t even remember the last time it rained! I shall join you in dancing! ;)

Helene
i actually really love this color! it’s so pretty!! and your ring, wow i don’t really think ive seen it up close like that before- GORGEOUS!
Katie
Aw thanks Helene!! :) The ring is my replacement wedding ring for my pregnancy- since my rings are too tight right now and I’m petrified of them getting stuck and me having to get them cut off (it’s a thing! Scary!) I’m wearing this one for the remainder of my pregnancy :)

If you wake up one day to find that the entire contents of your closet have disappeared, feel free to blame me because I want to steal every piece of clothing you own!

I absolutely LOVE that mustard colored dress and the color looks great on you! I have a mustard dress that I’ve only worn once but after seeing this I totally want to pull it out of the back of my closet!

Love this dress and would love to purchase it for work but even though you have a precious little baby bump, do you think you could tell me if this dress runs true to size?
Katie
Hmm well I ordered an XL which is like way bigger than my normal size (usually I’m a small) because I know from experience that the clothes at these wholesale online retailers from Asia always run small. I would say this dress is very roomy and great for my growing bump! So I guess for a non-preggers, I would suggest going up about 2 sizes, if possible!
