FASHION FRIDAY | dressing for baby

09.23.11

This getting dressed with a baby bump is tricky! I don’t want to stretch out my normal shirts but don’t want to spend a bunch of money on maternity clothes. Which is why I’m pretty much obsessed with this shirt. It’s super comfy, allows room for baby, and I got it for $12! I want to find like 5 more. That shall be my new mission.

I’m wearing:

Shirt: Old Navy
Leggings: H&M
Platforms: Michael Kors
Watch: Target
Hair Scarf: Borrowed from my mom (you should see her collection!!)

D and I are goin camping this weekend. I’m hoping for warm-ish weather, no ticks, and lots of relaxing time!

i made it through my whole pregnancy with only like two maternity shirts (its always nice to have a few classic long sleeve maternity shirts). i wore leggings … a lot … and i would hit up the clearance racks in the jr sections and get sweater dresses in size large. way cheaper than maternity clothes and as you get bigger the dresses just fit like shirts, but you still look cute!

also get a belly band, i used that over my jeans and just un buttoned them and never bought maternity pants. if you have to buy them though, h&m has cute and cheap ones!!!ReplyCancel

AHHHH! KELLY!!!! i’m so sorry, i just caught up with the blog and i am SO excited for you and dustin! you guys are going to have one cute kid 🙂 when i was pregnant, i definitely wanted a girl and nothing else ha ha, so don’t feel bad!

i want to echo the belly band – it was super helpful and i got to wear a lot of my regular clothes. i wish you still lived here, i would give you mine. also, this might sound terrible, but i borrowed a lot of my friends clothes who wore mediums and larges, so i ended up being able to wear cute clothes that were not maternity. and my friends were not at all offended – they knew i was a teeny person to begin with. 🙂 you are the cutest pregnant person!!!

also, we did centering and had Faith at the birthing center. it was a really great class. we also did bradley classes, which we really loved. you guys are going to be amazing parents!!!! good luck and God bless!!!ReplyCancel
