A fashion wonder

I know that they say that black is slimming... but look at this optical illusion!
(This is what I wore to work today.)

View from the front: I don't look particularly pregnant.
(Maybe just a bit chubbier than I used to be.)

View from the side: I look suuuuper pregnant!

(27 weeks, 3 days)

How fun! I keep checking it out over and over again when I see a mirror.  I think it's the matte jersey fabric + the black colour that's creating the effect.

I'm super grateful that the weather is moderate enough for me to wear this heavy necklace and light sweater on top of my tube dress.  This time last week I was practically dying from the heat. This windy day is such a relief.
