friday find: maternity wear that is even somewhat cute

December 14, 2013

i am soooooo sick of my maternity clothes.  i have about 5 work outfits that i am cycling, and have no intention of buying another scrap of stretchy fabric.

9.5 more work weeks.  i’ll just wear one tent-like dress every day at the end if i have to.

my maternity wardrobe was a mix of gap, pea-in-the-pod sale rack items, and one online retailer i didn’t know about last time: japanese weekend.  i only wish i had found them sooner, especially in order to plan ahead and ransack the sale rack.  the pieces i have from there have fit beautifully throughout pregnancy, drape so nicely, and come out looking work-ready straight from the wash.*

i might even try to get away with wearing this dress to an upcoming wedding:

i also have and wear this top weekly — at least.  
finally, i wear these ankle pencil pants [not ankle-length on me, but whatever] at least twice in every work week.
most of their items are made in the USA [in san francisco] and they have good stuff in their sale section, too.  i am SOOOOO looking forward to wearing real clothes again** but just in case anyone is expecting and wants a rec, definitely check this site out.
* the instructions say ‘dry flat’ but i just tumble dry low and everything comes out fine.
** like, a LOT!

    Do you have any friends who’ve recently given birth? Who can ship you their clothes? I borrowed a bunch of work-ish maternity items from a friend for my third kid, and it was like a breath of fresh air blown into my wardrobe which, having gone through two pregnancies, was not only looking frumpy but was actually falling apart.

    I spent THE entire pregnancy in old navy maternity jeans IN ADDITION TO oversized sweatshirts. i had sole nice pair associated with pants. we wore MY OWN husband’s coat While It got cold AND my partner and i think my partner and i merely looked obese throughout it.

It is the subject matter of the excellence and tremendous quantum. It is skilled and advanced with the right and intricate settings it is the mentioned and argued meaning of the times and all occasions.
