Hellobee Boards

I shopped at a consignment shop.

I ordered a couple shirts and a work dress from Dorothy Perkins, a couple tops from Kohl's, and my sister just brought her tote over of all her clothes (she was pregnant this time last year) so hopefully there some stuff in there I can use.

I need to get maternity leggings and skinny jeans. Looks like I'll be hitting up MOtherhood & Gap soon too. I also need dresses/skirts for work that I can wear when I get bigger.

I just bought a couple maxi dresses from Old Navy that I love.

This one in particular I really love:

I'm gonna head over to Gap this week to pick up a few more things. I'm so picky with clothes that it's hard for me to shop! I end up walking around the mall for hours and buying like one or two things. sigh.

I was surprised to see that Burlington Coat Factory had some good stuff. I've never bought any, so I can't speak of the quality, because I saw it after my pregnancy.

I went to a consignment store for most of my pants. A very few pieces from a Pea in the Pod and some items from Old Navy. I love, love, love the maternity A1 tanks from Old Navy!!

I love Gap for pants - didn't find any that fit me well anywhere else. For tops, I actually found a ton at Sears for great prices. I love the style of everything from Loft but too rich for my blood!

I love Kohls, it's kind of a forgotten store, IMO. I just bought a ton of tops from Vera Wang and Dana Buchman for Kohls post pregnancy, but I don't like the Oh Baby line for maternity that much. I did better at Motherhood pricewise.

I just wanted to say very quickly that I HIGHLY recommend these skinny jeans from the GAP:

Early in my pregnancy I bought a pair of J Brand Mama straight leg jeans (and altered them into skinny jeans) and they itched so bad I wanted to claw my skin off. The gap skinny jeans are really comfy (material is super soft), dont sag in the crotch and are relatively easy to get on and off (or maybe I'm the only person who has issues getting skinny jeans on and off). Totally worth the money (and they are on sale with an extra 15% off).

I really did not buy much maternity clothes. And the few items I purchased were on sale along with coupons!
1 pair of maternity work pants from ON for $12? 2 pairs of maternity leggings from ON. 1 pair of maternity jeans from F21 for $10 which I LOVE. 1 pair of maternity lounge pants from Gap. I would say in total I probably spent about $60? I'm too cheap!!! haha
Then my SIL gave me one Maternity long sleeve, 2 maternity dresses and a pair of maternity jeans from Gap.

I've been living in regular empire waist dresses and leggings all winter.

@Mrs. Wagon: You will want to size up in these jeans, pre-pregnancy I wore a size 0 and had a pair of Gap Maternity work pants in a size 0, and I went with a size 4 for these jeans (and they dont get all stretched out and saggy, like most of my other jeans)

My favorite clothing came from the Gap. I bought 2 pairs of jeans and some shirts from there. Motherhood was my least favorite. The shirts never fit me quite right, but I do have a few from there. I have a few shirts from Old Navy that I wear a ton. I love them. I've been living in my regular sized yoga pants and tank tops lately since it's getting warmer and everything I have has long sleeves!
