Clothing is dumb (mild vent/rant)

[ndolehan]

So. I haven't had to buy ANY clothing yet since being pregnant. Which is awesome. But now I have to - and not even because clothes don't fit!

I was at stupid work today, and everything was going fine until about an hour before I left. When my pants ripped. In the crotch. You can't see it, even if I bend over, but it's big. I knew this was coming.

AND THEN

My damn bra wire SNAPPED! And it was my favorite bra! Not to mention the wire kept poking me in the boob and the underside looks like it was attacked by a wild animal. And it huuurrrttsss! So triple antibiotic cream with be slathered on this evening. How sexy - good thing I'm on pelvic rest.

*sigh*

No one sells my size clothing in town, at least in maternity. For a decent price. I really don't want to spend $50 on a shirt and $75 on pants that I"m only going to wear for about 3ish more months.

You don't have a Target?

We do, but, I'm a bit of a fluffy bunny. So I need not only maternity, but larger sizes.

Not to mention I have enough boobs for three people.

Old Navy. Great maternity clothes, especially basics and reasonably priced. Also, maxi dresses. I am still wearing non maternity flowy maxi dresses all of the time. Throw a cardigan over them when it gets cooler.

Gap body. Not really work clothes, but I found a lot of my favorite stuff there. Old Navy and Target were also good. Motherhood had some decent bras, but they try to sign you up for a bunch of shit. If you go there, be prepared to shut them down asap. Target had some good nursing bras too.
