I’m Tanked Over Here

We are seeing record setting temps in these parts and that means I’m wearing as little clothing as possible without breaking any laws. I’m also rethinking this whole pregnant during the summer thing… I don’t think I’ll be making this a repeat situation. Anywho, I thought I’d show off these babies because they are a standard uniform over here in long torso-prego ville.

Old Navy, Women’s Racerback V-Neck Tanks – These are LONG, like super long. They fit over the bulging bump when some maternity tanks look like mid-riffs.  Also, they are thin but not see through.. letting the air in, but keeping those preg pervs out… yes, I’m talking to you creep at Home Depot.

Cute Tops

A Cute Top. I’m always open to a new cute top…hahaha who isn’t! A new top with some jeans and sandals…outfit DONE!  As I was perusing, here are some that I think are pretty durn cute!

The Topic of T-Shirts

Is anybody out there like me and on the hunt for the perfect t-shirt?  I need a t-shirt to not be so thin that all my lumps and bumps show, to hit at just the right place in length and to not be tooo cap-sleevey, not too clingy but not too loose.  And what the hell with brown t-shirts getting all decolorized swirly when you wash them?  Is it so hard to buy a t-shirt and want to throw it in the washing machine and dry it and have it come out the same color it was before? You feel me?  I’ve bought tees from all these places and while I do end up wearing them, I haven’t found THE. BEST. T-SHIRT. EVER.  Have you?

Is this true for everyone? Probably not.  But it is true for me, man do I love me a Boden catalog.  They draw me in with their bright colors, they string me along with their outfit color combos, they have stuff for my kid, and they now have US sizing!  So I thought I’d share what I’m currently drooling over.
