Linking up with Lindsey @ thepleatedpoppy.
Recycling and mix-&-matching maternity outfits can be tricky. I like the challenge. I refused to buy maternity clothes when I was pregnant for the first time. I thought the prices were too much for tunics or maternity dresses or tanks. So i stretched the fabric of my loose tanks and sweaters. I went from an extra-small scrubs top to a small {that will give u an idea that I was tiny for my first pregnancy}.
With my second pregnancy, I blew up! I added a few more maternity pieces and loose nonmaternity dresses and tops to my prego collection. I went from an extra small scrubs top to a small to a medium! Aaaaah! Same thing for the scrub bottoms. I was wearing medium's on my second trimester because the smalls were too tight on my thighs.
So where am I going with this post? With babyD3 growing in my belly, I added even more prego outfits to my closet. I bought gap maternity and motherhood maternity before. But this time, thanks to friends and blogs, I looked at old navy maternity. The prices were more reasonable. I also found key pieces from zulily.
