It's All in the Angles

Allow me to illustrate in photos the problem with many maternity outfits.

Exhibit A:
Acceptable, if generic, maternity sweater.

Exhibit B:
LOOK OUT, THERE IS AN ESCAPED HIPPO ON THE LOOSE!!!

Point made.

And while we are on the topic of being super fashionable, here is a bonus photo:

I think it's the sweatpants that make the outfit.

Well, that's what I always looked like pregnant... No cute basketball look for me, just all spread out and wide and giant.

1) I think you look fine, pregnant you look. Not fat.
2) I totally bought that sweater too. I wear it over leggings at home and if I was pregnant I am pretty sure it would be too tight on me. Opps it was supposed to be a transitional piece. Oh well

I just now realized how awful my comment from earlier sounded. I am SO SORRY. I did not mean to say that you looked wide and giant, but rather that that was how *I* looked. GAH, apologies...

HAHA, nice backtrack, I do look wide and giant though! But I don't look that way in every outfit, which is my point. I mean, I am pretty big, but it doesn't help when maternity clothes actually make you look worse instead of better. Most of the outfits where I look cute instead of bovine are created by wearing non-maternity clothing.

No worries, we are still friends. :)
