Jessica Simpson -- and her ever growing baby bump -- were spotted out in New York early Thursday, as the beauty was hustling to a Manhattan meeting.

Simpson wore a black jacket, grey shirt and black leggings on the rainy October morning, as one of her handlers held an umbrella to shield her from the chilly sprinkles.

The Dukes Of Hazzard beauty, 31, is expecting her first child with her fiancé, former NFL tight end Eric Johnson.
