When to start wearing maturity clothing?




I want a coat from the Old-navy maternity section. I normally wear a small, when should I start buying clothes from the maternity section in their size small?

Size 16 seems like it must be the hardest size to be. I can’t shop in the juniors department, the plus size stores have styles that are too old and sizes that are too big. I’m 25 years old and a new mother. Where can I find clothes that fit and are flattering to my figure?

today's fashion, what do you think about it?




I was wondering what some of you thought of today’s fashion. Now I think that people should be their own person and show off your personality the way you want to, not how others want you to. But for women especially, what’s with the t-shirts that are like a mile long to your knee caps, or looking for a nice coat or shirt only to find it’s half way long. Or even some of the pants. A lot of the clothes look frumpy, skanky or like maternity wear. Now there are some clothes out there that do look good and it’s cool there are different styles matching different decades,but I think fashion was best in the late 90′s to early/mid 2000′s. Especially t-shirts and tops. What do you think?

Most Flattering Clothes for a Size 16?




I am a size 16 on the bottom and have chunky calves and ankles, I am a size 14 on the top and have a rather big bust too. I struggle with knowing what clothes to wear to flatter my figure.

I hate going out now because i dread trying to find something to wear that i feel good in?

I struggle to find trousers to fit and are comfortable. I also love to wear leggins but not sure if i should really be wearing them at my size and not sure what to wear on the top?

I would appreciate any suggestions :-)

Thank you x

I gained 70 pounds rapidly in each of my pregnancies. I’m left with "squishy" type excess skin/stretch marks. It’s somewhat saggy, and very noticeable. Even when I wear pants that fit correctly, if they’re even slightly fitted in the waste, it looks like I have a huge roll. Is there something that I can wear under my clothes to just kind of firm and flatten my stomach so that it doesn’t do this? I need something that won’t be obvious if I’m wearing a tighter shirt. Also, summer is coming, and I don’t want to wear some kind of suit or something because it’ll show and I’ll sweat to death. Please help ): I’m only 20 years old and feel like I’m 70.

<3 Ash

What should I pack and when?




I’m at 37 weeks but I would like some advice from those who have had already went through this of what I should pack and when.
The hospital is going to be at a military base, so they have a strict rule that I can’t eat anything that I bring from home unless it’s clear/see-through like a sucker or apple juice.
I was able to tour the place and they have whirlpools to help relax in but what do you wear in them? I don’t have a preggie bathing suit, lol.
Also, when you leave the hospital, what kind of clothes would be more comfortable to wear? Would my maternity jean capris’ elastic band hurt around my waist or should I just bring PJs that tie?

Is anyone else DONE being pregnant? If so, why?




I am 34 weeks pregnant tomorrow and I am so DONE being pregnant!! I have felt this way for a few weeks now but espically since yesterday when I went to the movies to see Bounty Hunter with my fiance, and I swear that my butt must have grown because I had to squeeze in the theatre seat!! What is that!? LOL I was like OMG is this for real haha I didn’t think I gained any weight other than in my belly but I must be wrong!! And my legs were itching me the whole time and I couldn’t cross my legs and the band on my maternity jeans were pushing on the baby which resulted in him being pushed up high in my abdomen making me SUPER uncomfy! Ugh, can’t wait till he is born! Other then that I am just annoyed with not being able to fit in my clothes, and I just bought a bunch of new tops yesterday for the spring which I can’t wait to wear once he is born…. And the constant aches and pains of him pushing on my pelvic bone… It never ends! I also dread going anywheres, I dread having to go get groceries (can’t leave that to the fiance he’d come back with god knows what haha!) and I dread going to my weekly Dr. appointments too…. Anyways, just thought I’d rant and say I’m so done!! Tell me why you’re done and how long you’ve been done being pregnant for :)

Where are some good stores?




I OFFICIALLY HATE SHOPPING.

I just went shopping for nicer clothes for church and I can’t find anything!! I can never find my size. EVER.

I like things plain and simple. I usually just wear polos, but I want something a little nicer for Easter. I hate maternity shirts, I hate anything real frilly, I hate sparkles, leggins, lace, basically anything super girly. No prints, just one color tops, and some bermuda shorts.

Any ideas of where I could go? Old Navy maybe? I tried Kohls and everything sucked, it was all maternity and really sparkley.
thanks, but no AE or hollister. i cant stand those stores. and i usually wear a size 3 or 5 depending on the brand.
Did I mention I only like to spend about -20 on shirts. I dont need pants, already have them.

I have some stuff that’s too big for me now (:D) and my mom is trying to purge a few decades worth of work outfits. Some of it is practically new, and I know how hard it can be to find clothes in certain sizes; I can’t imagine how difficult it must be for someone who can’t really afford to shop, either. I was thinking of just dropping a couple of bags at the Goodwill store, but do you know of any organizations that will actually give outfits to someone in need? Even if they only take one type of clothing (ex/ I have a formal dress going to Project Prom, and some barely-worn bras going to the Bosom Buddy program.) please let me know.

I’m 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd and am still in my pre-pregnancy jeans. I THINK I grew out of my pre-pregnancy jeans with my daughter at about 18 weeks but she’s 6 1/2 now so I’m having a hard time remembering. Chances are that maternity close wont be something I can afford for another month or so. I was wondering when most people grow out of their regular clothes.
