Put Them in Your Top Three

Top Three 34th Street Maternity Picks:

My Old Navy white tank tops, I got them 2 for $14. Problem is, they fit my husband perfectly so he's always wearing them to the gym. For you girls who shop for your man, my guy is about 6'2 and 192 lbs. I think he likes the length of the maternity tanks. Never thought you'd be shopping maternity for your husband, huh?

I was going to pick this easy and practical summer black dress (right) from H&M Mama, but on the second wearing I got one of those annoying holes in it. So instead I pick this ambitious black lace maternity dress (left), also H&M Mama. There's just so much right about black lace and maternity.












Last, of course, my beloved H&M Mama drop-crotch pants, the prettier, straight-on view, and the scary belly side-view. It's my PSA for the month: Practice safe sex, kids!















Have you read those studies about blogs and Twitter? Supposedly people love to read posts with lists and top threes, etc. In honor of the masses, I have given you my top-three, and here is my bullet-point list:

I'm with Steve. I just said this weekend that I don't think I'm ever going back to regular non-maternity Ts. I love the long tails, the soft cottons, the generous fits. Who knew?

I love this post! I'm not afraid of no tummy, either!

Dream Sequins said...

Would that be considered a "girlfriend tank"? :D

Tricia said...

DS - brilliant, yes, of course, the girlfriend tank!
SW - power to the tummy.
WEndyB - it's like 16 and Pregnant, the fashion version!
