<P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/simpson_jessica/artist.jhtml">Jessica Simpson</a> sparkles on the December cover of <a href="http://www.luckymag.com/magazine/2011/12/jessica-simpson" target="_blank"><i>Lucky</i></a> magazine, and while she may not be dishing on <a href="/news/articles/1673485/jessica-simpson-pregnant.jhtml">becoming a mom</a> in the issue, she does open up about planning her wedding, letting everyone know she's in no rush to walk down the aisle. </P><P> </P><P>"I haven't started shopping for our wedding yet," she tells the magazine. "When I got engaged, everyone thought I would get married immediately, but I have not put a single dress on, and by the time this comes out, I will not be married! We're just enjoying being engaged right now, and that's honest." </P><P> </P><P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/photos/thumbnails.jhtml?fid=1673490&view=thumb"><b>Photos: Jessica Simpson's budding baby bump!</a></b> </P><P> </P><P>Simpson and former football player <a href="/news/articles/1652269/jessica-simpson-from-newlyweds-to-newly-engaged.jhtml">Eric Johnson</a> got engaged last year, and on Monday, she broke the news that the couple is expecting their first child together. "When I met him, I just felt so comfortable with myself and where I was in my life that if he didn't want to be part of it, he didn't have to be," she explains about her feelings on love when she and Johnson first started dating. And she says that these days, she's driven by a whole new set of ambitions — none of which has to with life as a celebrity. </P><P> </P><P>"I'm not looking for more fame or money," the mom-to-be adds. "I am very secure in those areas." </P><P> </P><P>The singer/actress/mogul also talks a bit about the chatter around her figure, saying that despite any criticism she might receive for her curves, "I like the way I look." </P><P> </P><P>"Everybody fluctuates, but I'm open about my weight, and I'm still confident. I didn't cry about it too much," she explains. "I got so much scrutiny for putting on extra pounds, but I think that the decision not to make myself anorexic was actually great for branding. Because when you're really, really skinny, not everybody can relate to you. All kinds of women started coming up to me and saying what an example I was setting by not constantly dieting."</p>
