Bumpalicious!
So last month I tried a new company to me, Bumpalicious, for a few bits of maternity wear as I was not getting very far with mainstream shops. I wish I had known about this company before finishing work as I think they have a great range of clothes suitable for the work place.
The package arrived promptly, neatly wrapped in tissue & tied with ribbon, on top a packet of sweetheart sweeties - nice touch! As shown in the image above the jeans were comfy & well made, a good thick denim fabric. I love the blue wrap top, especially as I can wear it afterwards, it will be great for easy access breast feeding! Loving the royal blue colour as I wouldn't normally pick something that bright. It's nice to try something different & I also feel that I can wear it with black in winter & lighter colours in summer, so it's very versatile.
One thing that I did feel made this company stand out is the free personal shopping service they offer. It is so reassuring in your pregnancy having someone on your side, thinking about the clothes that you wear and untimately, how you feel. I filled out the online form and as I mentioned above, was picked out a colour I wouldn't normally wear which has freshed up my maternity wardrobe (something I didn't think possible!) It's also great for when your brain is mush during pregnancy and you need someone to think for you!
Overall I felt like I was getting a very personal & friendly serivce - something you don't normally get with online shopping.

Maternity Jeans
Well I had resigned myself to thinking that for the last 8 weeks of my pregnancy I was going to have to continue with the leggings and tunic combo, then be done with leggings for a good few months after the birth just out of sheer boredom! But then low and behold I stumble across Dorothy Perkins maternity wear, with 30% off and bagged a pair of black skinnies for £21! Wow! What a difference a change of scenery makes to your bottom half! Grabbed a very long vest & fairly long jumper that has some stretch in it and I feel like a new woman! I am very pleased with them, they are so comfortable, provide a bit more warmth than leggings and opened up my wardrobe, happy Mummy = happy baby! Who would have thought it, after all the shop's I've tried, Dorothy Perkins have made a great, affordable, well fitted pair of maternity jeans, thank you so much Dotty P's! Click on the blue Dorothy Perkins to see the pair I bought.
Happy Christmas and Sale (!) shopping everyone!
PS Still so pleased with my Bare Essentuals make-up. Used the primer sample when I went out the other day and considering investing in this also.
