So I had to break down and go maternity shopping this past weekend.  I decided to go to a maternity consignment store as I was hoping to not have to spend a whole lot of money on what would practically have to be a whole new wardrobe.  I made out like a bandit!  The clothes are in mint (some even still with the tags) condition.  My deal with myself was that I was not allowed to spend more than $15 on any one item, unless it was a pair of jeans that I loved as I knew I would be wearing jeans a lot.  My hopes for finding jeans that I liked, that were long enough, and that weren't outrageously priced, were very slim. 

But I found a super cute pair of jeans that fit me perfectly!  And they were only $20!  I literally wore them out of the store as my "contraption" was no longer cutting it.  The jeans are so cute that my friends who saw me afterwards thought they were regular jeans, not maternity jeans.  Yay!  And I didn't just find the cute jeans, I found a bunch of stuff I love.  In all I got: the jeans, two other pairs of pants (khakis and some cargos), 5 nice tops, and a dress all for a grand total of....$100.64!  What a steal!  Now if I can just find me some black pants or leggings, I should be all set! 

I am so relieved to have clothes that are comfortable and to have not broken the bank in order to get them.  I recommend maternity consignment to everyone!! 

Now to box up all the pre-preggo clothes as they'll just serve as nothing but clutter for quite some time.
