I was pretty amazed to find that these pants still fit comfortably. I seem to be outgrowing items every week and the window of wearable clothes is becoming smaller and smaller. If you remember, these pants are not a maternity item and given that most of my maternity pants don’t even fit comfortably anymore I thought for sure these were out. But I humored myself and attempted to put them on only to find they fit just fine with plenty of room and stretch! Huzzah!
I wanted to pair them with a Fred Perry polo and go for a bit of an Oi look, but I was worried I was stretching out my Fred Perry and I might end up ruining it, never to be worn post belly again. So I chose to go with a simple white tee, because lets be honest, these pants are kinda crazy, you gotta keep things simple.
The headscarf with the chambray work shirt made me feel a bit like Rosie the Riveter, but then I also apparently channeled Popeye when the camera came out!

Oh and guess?! My pantyhose version of my compression hose showed up! It’s kinda weird how excited I was about this haha. I bought a thigh high version for skirts and shorts and a knee high version for with pants. See how I’m wearing them and you can hardly tell? At least a lot less noticeable than the black ones so, Success! These bad boys ought to help make the next few weeks bearable. If you need a pair- this is where I got them.
