Maternity Clothes

My mom and I went maternity clothes shopping yestrday. It was pretty intimidating at first but we made good progress in understanding how sizing works. It's not all that interesting I suppose but I thought it was odd how obvious some things were to me that didn't seem to be obvious to the maternity clothes designers.
Things like:
Sacks aren't attractive.
Don't put the most interesting part of the outfit on the belly, put it near the neckline.
Why does everything have such a high neckline?
Sweaters are already bulky, don't add buttons on the boob line!

Still it was fun to be able to share the experience with my mom.

  1. Try Old Navy (oldnavy.com). They have really cute maternity clothes, and you can return them in the store if they don't work.
