The Internet has changed the way most people shop. The many advantages of
online shopping have made it more popular choice among active Internet users. There are virtually hundreds of online shops that offer just about everything we need. But even if most people choose to shop online, they are still mindful of the prices of the items that they buy from online stores.
Practical consumers look for the best deals online. They look for online shopping websites that offer authentic merchandise at the lowest price possible. At
nomorerack, shoppers can find the best deals on just about everything they need including clothes and accessories, shoes, bags, electronic gadgets, toys, books, home accessories and a variety of other merchandise. I even got the Celine French Style handbag for myself. Mommy need not be lacked of what she like/want because she already has a baby to care for! Smile for that. :-) To add, everyday this site posts deals on different items (it's addicting of waiting the time it open, you know). They have what they call the Insanity Deals where items are offered with as much as 95% discount. Shoppers can visit the site everyday if they want to be able to snag some amazing deals for themselves. And take note if you are a savvy shopper like me, you've got to get going. Happy shopping journey then! :-)

I had a long day today. Yours truly thought of doing something in the computer but my mind was nowhere to find. I though of the baby clothes lying in the living room waiting to be ironed, folded and arranged for how many days. Well, let me just say it was just one day before going a week that it was being washed. Alright, I straightened them so I it's not hard to iron. I supposed not to iron it but I got a lesson learned. I should had not put the two loads of washed clothes in one dryer (blame it to the laundry area, only one dryer here in the complex, bad cheetah. Ha!) thinking I could save some quarters and time. But then, not! It doubled my work. When I had it one by one load in the dryer, ironing is no way for me because the dryer will straightened the clothes since it has a lot of space while it was spinning. All I supposed to do was then to fold it directly out from the dryer. And that's what a lesson to learn for me. But no regrets because, the damage has been done and I was running of time and quarters (to put in the dryer to function). DH even did the other two loads (four loads all which I made it into only three loads in the dryer) and was not able to come with me in the Birthing Class I had the other week (Wednesday) to attend such drying thing. Well, it was good for DH on the other hand that he was not able to come with me because he was just came from work for ten hours and was tired. And so that was it, I had it ironed overtime lately. My back hurts a bit and such but I was determined to finish it. All in all, that clothes was displayed for more than a month lying in our living room because I had it complete at the same time, it can be washed in one. There would be something coming but the important ones are already complete. The other good thing is our simple couch in the living is already free of baby clothes and my mind can already relax thinking about it already arranged and such. :-) This mommy-to-be done all that ironing, folding and arranging after 11 P.M. lately from 2 P.M. with two short naps, overtime eh?! I just had my siesta and snacks and will sleep in a minute. Whew! What a long and a bit of tiring day (thanks goodness am safe and sound) !
Well, I guess every mommy/mommy-to-be likes to wear fabulous formal dresses, don't you think? For me, slim or plus size women does. For some other nation (well, mostly, if not most), thin ones are an "in" thing but not here in USA. Everybody is entitled for fashion. Plus size women fit-in with fabulous
plus size formal dresses and any kind of clothing and accessories. Plus size women can play with their measurements and still looks fab and amazing just like the thin ones. I love seeing plus-size women with curves! Well, such curves can be seen depending on the style of clothing/outfit women wear. So playing with their measurement is definitely great! Thanks goodness there are many plus size clothing available everywhere or even at the tip of one's mouse.
This mommy-to-be is fond of dresses. I like dresses, shoes and purses but when I have to choose only one, the very first is like most. I guess I have this fondness because when I was young, I was not fortunate enough to have fabulous dresses even with special occasions like birthday, Christmas and other occasions alike which you think a dress is just a typical new on those times. Poor me but I accept. I did not regret because that was my fate but now that I can afford to buy some, I indulge with it even sometimes. :-) Why not! :-) What about you, do you love dresses too?
Plus size is very much different from obese. And I guess you already know that. My OB-GYN is very much particular with weight. She will tell her patients if she is already at the neck of going overweight or overweight itself. But that does not mean big women are overweight, okay? As what I know, this depends unto her height and the structure. Afar from that, I do not know where it leads or should I say I would just not say anything but plus size women need
plus size dresses to fit for their measurement. If you have the 12W-44W measurement, then I suggest you may like to check out Roamans E-Store for such and indulge the different style of clothing and other women accessories for your need (as well as your wants/luxury). Women deserves luxury as well, so worry-not if you have bucks to back-up for such to get your own. *smile*
As for me as a mommy-to-be, being a mommy does not mean being plus-size but if our body expands (to which I always hear from my mommy friends, hopefully height expands too), then that will be the time that we then need a plus size dresses. We should not worry about that, but the bucks to pay for it because all the clothes we have will be undersized and that means, new clothes and others! Otherwise, not a biggie deal because plus size clothing are just right in the corner. :-)
Underwears, thin shirts and other inside shirts maternity accessories. I am thankful I have plenty of those. My own little (little when saved and added eventually grows) income does its wonder plus DH gave me bucks and let me get a good deal to have it. I am a savvy person so I make sure to have great deal even it takes time for me to get it happen. I hunt good deals. If I found pricey but worth, I go for it but most of the time I go for sale and alike as long as I found great ones, then go! I always believe of good though I also believe of "you get what you pay for". :-)
I bought two pieces of other house or pregnancy clothes. It could also be a nursing ones because it has its buttons good for breastfeeding. It's from Ralph and Lauren and the other one is, ooh sorry I forgot. But surely, its texture is pretty soft, made from cotton. This dresses serves three reasons!
First, it is for pregnancy time. Second, a house clothes. And I could still use this even if I am not pregnant anymore, nursing time. Thirdly, I can use it inside the apartment complex (with leggings) whenever I do laundry and throwing trash. Isn't that cool? *wink* ;-)
This pregnant woman is not a perfect person. I guess everybody, not. Meaning, we make mistakes (just like my shopping journey of my maternity clothes) and we just have to learn from it and we are good to go. The dominating color red below was one of the maternity dresses that I like. I made a couple of looking-out unto it before I made a decision that I have to buy it. Days later, I found myself did not like it anymore. Good thing, I did not use or wash it yet. And the tag was still there.
That stripe shirt was intentionally put in there so the dominating color red dress is visible. :-) Though that black and white stripe shirt is also memorable to me. Why? That is so, because that is my first shirt bought after I knew I am pregnant and was used during a gathering of friendship in Almansor Park in the city where I live. I am confident it suits me good. :-) So the only item I return in the pic is no other than the dominating red color. That's a maxi but not that long, it's just coincide to my height. What I don't like is the garter-look above my tummy. I can sense this dress will outgrew fast on my progressive size of my tummy. No matter how I like it, my precious baby-in-my-tummy is far more important. And yep, I returned it. Was accepted without any question's ask because of all the store's tag is present.
Some of the maternity dresses I bought, was being taken once though several of them bought one batch at a time. Lazy preggo, eh? yeah, you bet! Ha ha!
Okay, I was advise to exercise daily if there's no complications. 30 minutes at least, half at a time, meaning after 15 minutes, I have to rest. Then another 15 minutes afterwards. Since a clothing store is just near in our home, I just walked then going there at the same time having my exercise. DH gave enough bucks to comfort my needs. That is for maternity dresses. And below was another batch to fulfill the becoming bigger belly of this mommy-to-be and enjoy my pregnancy journey.
I bought a couple of half-slips and brassieres with attached shirt of same color but different sizes. In that way, there's no excuse for me to say dress that up. :-)
Another red maternity dress for a mommy-to-be me. This time, it is with sleeve. I like its texture and the way how red it is. Smile. Yep, it is not that flashy and so I took it. It needs a bandeau-like underwear and I have a several of those, from black to nude and white to off-white to pair with my shoes and purse.
Above is an image to which you can enlarge should you like. Just click the image and you can then zoom it. Anyway, that sleep or house wear pair white on the left side of an image was being bought at a good deal. It is a pair and I like it. It seems for a bride-to-be pre-dress going to have a shoot with her wedding gown. Well, it could be! Image above also includes other stuffs like half-slips so my tummy won't be tracked. Hep! And several other underwear because I gain weight due to pregnancy. That new ones made my tummy happy, because it can move freely, fit-in that is.
My first shopping for maternity clothes was dated March 17th (of course this year, hehe! And yep, my camera's date is advance five (5) days) and that happened just lately. I guess, I am on my first week of second trimester (you do the math, beginning from the 7th of December, the first day after my last menstruation (the first day of counting of my pregnancy too as what the counting starts, from ob-gyn). Pregnancy is 40 weeks or 10 months to which each month is 28 days -> this is how it is calculated according of my ob-gyn) and I can feel many of my clothes (especially the jeans and shorts) won't fit anymore. Okay, it would fit but since when I sit it would touch the baby-on-my-tummy and I can feel it hurts a bit, then I can say it won't fit anymore speaking of pregnancy. And I thought of having some maternity clothes to which it can fit until my last trimester (hopefully the last week of it or until if am not pregnant *wink*). And DH gave me something. And so I bought it for the clothes (maternity clothes of course). Grateful to my two friends (Te Claudia and Dorie) for they accompany me of buying those. We went unto three stores at the same time strolling. They gave me priority and I so love it. Not for being prioritized, but for the beautiful character they have. They knew I need it and that's how great they are. They taught me stuffs which I never knew before and I could never be happier. We're happy together (together with my baby-in-my-tummy too, hehe!) doing such. Thanks for the time! Now I have my first maternity clothes. ;)
