I do not belong in a world of broken pieces...

+ I think I'm allergic to winter. Okay, not really, but during winter I get frequent inexplicable sinus headaches that come and go as they please, and are usually without any other symptoms. Just another reason to be glad for resuming normal high temperatures tomorrow. We set a record low last night. I'm glad to be done with that for a while ( Read more... )

I wish I could find a good thrift store around here...I've been feeling the need to rotate my wardrobe for a few months now, but I hardly ever go shopping, and when I do, I usually don't find much that I really want or that I'm willing to pay the asking price for. I'm glad you were able to find all those steals though! The cashmere sounds especially lovely.

LOL! Yeah, it's hard to find new clothes when you hardly ever go shopping. ;o) 'Course now you have to find flowy tops and such to accommodate your growing belly. *smile* The town I grew up in had one good thrift store - or, at least, it was good for my (lack of) style at the time. Most of my clothes came from there - thrift store shopping has been my thing for a long time! Hehe. I think FL in general has good stores though, 'cause I used to find good stuff at the stores over on the Gulf when I went to school over there. Just another reason for you to come visit me someday. =o)

Of my stuff yesterday I'm most excited about the cashmere and the white dress. It's so cute!

Yes! I don't have many flowy tops but I love them. I was telling Stephen that I am not really sure how to go about shopping for clothes right now or if I should wait to go because, having never been pregnant before, I really don't know quite how my body is going to change. Buying tops won't be a big issue, but I think that buying skirts will be a little more tricky. Good thing I do have three skirts that just about fall off when I where them while I wait to see what happens to my belly, hehe.

You know, that's true. I didn't get off campus much when I was at PCC because I didn't have a car and because I was such an awesome student I couldn't bear to do anything that would interfere with my studies ;) but I was quite impressed with the selection of clothing stores in Pensacola. Of course, I grew up in an area where the nearest city was over four hours away and Pensacola is a decent-sized city, but yeah. If I'd had money and less focus, I could have probably found a lot of great stuff to take home with me! lol

Hmm. Could you just get some clingy, stretchy skirts? Then they would accommodate your belly without making all the fabric hang way out.

Maybe...I did a bit of shopping on Wednesday and Thursday last week and found a lot of bargains, but no luck with such skirts. I did buy some skirts, but two are mainly for post-pregnancy (I was being optimistic and bought one size 4 and one 6. Hey, they both fit me right now! lol), and a couple others I'm hoping will work at least for awhile during pregnancy. But I think I ruined one of them in the wash already. Oops. :P
