Expectant mama Tamera Mowry-Housley wowed in a white Adam Lipppes dress paired with Louboutin nude heels at the Essence 6th Annual Black Women In Music event in Hollywood, Calif. on Thursday (February 5).

“This momma is ready for a night out with the girls! #Essencewomanofmusic,” the radiant mom-to-be, 36, Instagrammed a pre-pink carpet image.

The Sister, Sister alum is expecting her second child – a girl – with husband Adam Housley. The couple are already parents to 2-year-old son Aden.

“He actually looks at my belly and says, ‘Baby, baby,’” The Real co-host, 36, told PEOPLE of her growing tot. “I said, ‘We’re having a girl — you’re going to have a sister,’ and he lifted up his hands and went, ‘Woohoo!’”

And it sounds like Tamera can’t wait to welcome a mini fashionista.

“I’ve always wanted to know what Adam and my child would look like; We had a boy and now we have a girl,” she said. “I love fashion and makeup, and now I get to have a little fun.”

The actress goes on to talk about mom-to-be moods.

“You could just be really, really, really excited and then all of the sudden this switch will flip and you can start acting really crazy, and it can become really challenging,” she said.

She added: “I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. I love it. I love my son, I love my family, I’m grateful. I have lots of energy and I’m just enjoying it.”
