The Shabby Apple Hook up!!

I'm not talking about this:

But this:

It's a clothing line I recently found and I'm now IN LOVE WITH! Seriously. And I'm not saying that just to pimp them out... Though they deserve pimping cause I love dresses (I swear I want to wear one every day I'm pregnant) and all of their dresses are MODEST (aka not skanky) and I love it (and so does my husband by the way but we won't get into that)! It's sometimes hard to find cute fashionable clothes that are modest and not nunish.

Shabby Apple Online Dress Boutique is an online dress boutique providing women's dresses, little girls dresses, maternity dresses, and fashion accessories. That's right... I'm hoping by the time I'm with-spawn they'll recruit me as a model for their maternity line, we'll see.The good ladies there were nice enough to hook me up with a dress and I chose Anchors Away cause it looked cute, plus I'm sometimes a news anchor and it seemed fitting. These dresses are so classy and completely stylish that I just get so giddy looking at them (and I want to buy them all!)

I know none of yall have voted that you want to see more videos on my blog but trust.. You will like this one. Snoop even makes his first video appearance! And I'm modeling this beautiful dress and I know you want to see my modeling skills, right? So check this out before you read on!:

By the way I added the music after and it took every ounce of will power not to go back and edit some video of me booty dancing in the dress... But I spared you some gut-busting laughter and me some embarrassment.

But really people, I mean who did a better job? Her...Or me? I'll let you be the judge.

NEW!!: All of my readers get 10% off any purchase from Shabby Apple though September 20th! Just use the code " babymakingmachinebabymakingmachine10off" Happy shopping!

Anyway, you can model one of your own too cause they're sponsoring a giveaway for my Baby Makin(g) Machine readers! YES!! This is a hot $75 dress ladies!! So here's what you have to do to enter:

I love that dress and you do an excellent job of modeling it =) I can't wait until I"m skinny again so I can wear clothes that don't have elastic bands in them.

Jen, love the dress and you did a great job modeling it. My only comment is that don't you think it sounds like you plan on giving birth to an alien when you use spawn as your descriptive word? I'm just sayin' :)

Okay, I love the Fith Ave dress. I have had my eye on it since it first came out and really want to wear it for our family pictures. But as a mom my needs always come last and i've been saving for it but something always comes up where I use the money for something else.
Anway, love love love the dresses from here. They are just so modest and adorable!

Anyway, thank you for informing us about shabbyapple! I have been trying to find some good websites that have dresses that are both pretty AND modest, and also have sizes for those of us who, well, aren't a size 4, heh. Shabbyapple has BEAUTIFUL dresses!
Thanx again!
Love your dog!

Sarah said...

Oooh, very cool. I went to the site and I like the Plum Ruffle Dress (This Side of Paradise).
