I just bought the Fred Flare dress. It's on pre-order delivering 8/19. Would love some alternative suggestions for the shoes. ??

Do you know how Fred Flare runs? Is it true to size ? Is the sizing juniors or misses?

I believe it's juniors sizing...

That Fred Flare dress is spot on! (No pun intended). Have you had your baby yet or did I miss that post lol.

I did! I'm sorry I haven't made a "formal" announcement, I've been incredibly busy and overwhelmed to be honest! As soon as we take some cute baby pics with our good camera I will carve out some time to post, in the meantime, here's what I posted on Instagram: http://instagram.com/p/bE2TPDJBVG/
