Outfit: FAIL

The last month has been a bit disturbing in the belly explosion. I went from "chubby" to "National Geographic" really fast. I don't know what the F is happening to my body.

The critical problem (well, at least for me) is that dressing for my weeble-wobble body has become quite a challenge. Yes, I am aware that they make maternity clothes. But seriously, maternity clothing is the worst. The selection is horrible, and it's totally overpriced. It's basically picked-over-LDress Barn-clearance rack crap or stuff that looks like it's straight out of a Chico's catalog. Either way - NOT ACCEPTABLE.

So, I've been forced to wear a lot of black. Every day, long black cardigan, black pants (and for those of you who know my "no pants policy", you know this sucks for me), and then I TRY to spice it up with an interesting top that fits.

Well, this is the top I tried.And this is the comment from THC that I got when I came home from work: You look like a giant disco ball.

OUTFIT FAIL.

Also, FYI: The t-shirt you see in the photo below (3 posts ago) no longer fits. I tried to wear it to sleep last night, and woke up with the bottom around my chest like one of those 80's half shirts.

Just give in and get some Target maternity wear...it's at least comfy and roomy. :) And you WON'T look like a disco ball!

Are you trying to NOT wear maternity clothes? I got stuff from Gap online that was reasonable and fine. Also, a place called Japanese maternity had good stuff for work, but more expensive.
