Maternity Wear.

When I was sorting through baby clothes over the weekend to consign/give-away/loan to a couple of friends I went through my maternity stuff as well. I had *thought* that when I was pregnant last time that all I wore were dress clothes bc I worked full time. After sorting through them I found 1 pair of jeans that I remember I loved (thyme) wearing, and 3 pairs of cotton like pants, brown, greenish colour and a 3rd colour that I can't recall. Anywho, my tops were a sorrier state. A lot of my maternity wear last time was hand me downs from my sister and some of it was stuff I bought which I know I can't bring myself to wear again. I think I bought it bc it was cheap and figured it would do, not because I liked it. So I really can't see myself wearing it again since I did not like it the first time.

So a couple of days ago I hit ebay and bought 2 winter coats, a more casual puffer (brown), a charcoal wool wrap and a couple of tops and a pair of jeans. The jeans are super cute, but have a band. last time I hated the band, but the pants I had with a band were like a full panel (I found them itchy), these ones are a roll down band and it's navy with white polka dots!



Since the band aka panel made my tummy itch last time, I really hope the roll down band feels different. The jeans were only $15 but I'd hate not to like them. I then added quite a few tops to my 'watch list and thought, Ok, this is good I should be good, just need a few more tops. Famous last words :P

I was chatting with Beth and she started telling me about these wrap tops she just bought and shared the link with me. Bad bad idea. I LOVED the tops and ended up buying a couple. Needless to say, I needed to remove several tops from my watch list on ebay. :p

The bottom of the top is actually two long tails that you wrap around your belly and tie in a knot/half bow or what not. Luckily the site has a video on how to wrap it, which, I've watched a couple of times and it does not seem too hard, but I doubt when the time comes I'll be able to wrap it as neat as it was done in the video. :p I guess I can always return them if they do not fit well/right or I can't get the hang of it.

The pink wrap top is a bit daring, but B bought the same top in gray and told me the pink would look nice on me..and well I really like pink (in limited quantities) so decided to give it a shot. I'm super excited to get my new tops! Plus I was just watching a video on the site and the 3rd top I posted is 'runched' and they talked about how you can wear it at 3m pregnant and after your pregnancy which would rock.
