Clothes Haul: 8th December 2012

So I decided I was fed up of being in leggings and jeggings and stretchy dresses after having my son nearly 6 weeks ago, so it was time to take the plunge and go and buy some jeans and a couple of flattering tops that actually fitted me.

This was my first time shopping with Noah, and oh my goodness it's almost impossible!  If I hadn't had my sister there with me I'd have given up I think - prams and changing rooms don't normally mix very well!  So rather than my usual tactic which is to go to a million different shops and then usually uy the first thing I tried on (sound familiar haha?!) I decided New Look would be my best bet for some affordable style.

Pre-pregnancy I was a size 10, so it was gutting to be trying on size 14 jeans =( but then I found these, which look great, fit well AND are a size 12.  I know in the grand scheme of things a 14 isn't even that big but it's all relative isn't it with what you're used to?

The lighting in my pictures isn't very good so the jeans look really dark, but they are navy!  Here we are, moment of truth (ahhhhhh no judging the baby belly please!!!) ...........

My waist has also disappeared and yet to make a re-appearance as well as having a tummy to cover, so a lot of my normal tops just don't fit right any more ~ bring on the peplum!  So flattering, pretty and girly, there's nothing I don't like about a peplum, and this one's only £8.99 from New Look - what a bargain.  It comes in 7 different colours, I got the purple and really wanted the cream, but they didn't have it in a 12 =(

I also got this gorgeous textured peplum top for £14.99.
