Tag Archives: dressings the bump

the…trying to squeeze as much life into my old clothes as possible edition.

this is all pre prego stuff.  the bump is still small enough to give me a little bit of wiggle room with the wardrobe.  this getting bigger thing is getting a bit tricky though.  i may be due for another maternity shopping spree, but we’ll ride this wave while we can.

cardigan – target (non maternity)

top – forever21 (non maternity)

skirt – from a friends closet : ) (non maternity)

flats – H&M

p.s. note the super awesome scuffed up legs.  results from the fall heard round campus.  super hot.

To be honest, im a bit of a binge shopper.  I don’t really shop all that much and then ill spend a $100 bucks on a bunch of stuff and satisfy the need for newness in my closet.  The place i do most of my binge shopping is forever21 online (to save myself from walking around all the cropped topped teenagers that remind me that i am so…not…21).  A hundred bones goes a long way at that place.  Sometimes i think it makes Brett jealous, because he’ll spend the same amount as me on a pair of jeans and a t shirt…and i get these big ol boxes delivered to our door step with at least 10 outfits in it.

My need to feed the online shopping beast has pretty much been on hiatus since the bump arrived and can i be real when i say…i hate maternity clothes.  They are comfy as hell, but pretty pricey and really not my style.  I’ve never been a fan of empire waist (especially tops or tunics), ruching, or things that tie.  So since this belly has grown i haven’t really felt like myself.  After some consulting from an extremely fashionable friend o’ mine, I decided to try a little of my old tricks, and just up the sizing a bit.

i am irrationally excited about this dino tank.  its nice to have something ridiculous to throw on on those hot summer days.  and of course what would a shop binge be with out unneccessary accessories…
