Maternity Wear
January 18, 2007 | Filed under Style
I must confess – I actually own maternity clothing.
So sue me. I work in a maternity wear store, and some things are just really really nice. I’ve bought a couple of empire-line dresses with my staff discount, and considering that half the dresses you see in ‘normal’ stores these days are empire-line, it’s not like you can even tell that it’s maternity wear. Heck, when I wear it out, no one can tell.
Now that I’ve said that, I do believe that it’s confession of the day time! Hit me with your best shot.

I got annoyed about a colleague today (as did another colleague) and we talked about her when she left… it actually felt good as I don’t particularly consider this colleague my best friend ;).

I’ve seen Jarhead 4 times.

Me? Oh I’ve already confessed all my embarrassing secrets to the world, at least I think I have because I can’t think of anything that I do/wear that is off the beaten path. Maybe it’ll come to me later :P
I wish I could wear empire-line anything, they’re so pretty and… pretty. If I did though, with my ample chest size, I’d probably end up _looking_ pregnant without actually being pregnant :(

Uhmm… Paris Hilton is my guilty pleasure.

Nothing wrong with that lol. I actually agree, there are some really nice maternity stuff out there. Never bought any, but it exists.

If maternity wear will make my chest look bigger I might look into it… Lol! Hm, my own confession for the day… In my mind, I think that the fact that my boyfriend has just bought a car (a red Toyota Avanza, in case you wanted to know) somehow, somehow, makes me look way more cool. Is that lame or what?

I own three legitimate Hanson albums.

LOL, my mum claims that some of my babydoll dresses look like maternity clothes. Tell me about that. -_-
Errrrm, the first album I bought was a Britney Spears one

I buy my bras a size smaller than I should because I’m in denial about the size of my bust.
And I think Rhiannon may be stalking you! Although, based on a huge generalisation, I have yet to come across an Australian Asian girl around my age that DIDN’T like a1… so maybe she took a wild guess! Heh.

You know, when I go shopping and I see all of these empire line clothes, I really want them. And then I’ll try on a dress or shirt, and I’ll think, “I look pregnant!” And then I won’t buy anything.

Thanks for the comment on SF. I’m very shocked; an “I like this” with no “buts” XP
I’m sorry to hear about OR. I saw the comment, thinking it was you and then realized it went to a different website. I visited to see who this “other” Amanda was and then realized it WAS you. I completely understand about resigning from Umbrella; as you know, I did the same thing myself a few months back.
Anyways, best of luck. I’ll continue to visit you here as I did at OR (though you might not have known of my silent visiting).
And, actually on-topic, I have an empire-waist dress myself, though it isn’t maternity. *big smile*

Hey, if it doesn’t make you look like you’re pregnant, go for it! Empire stuff can be really, really cute!
Hmm… gosh. This is a tough one. Most people know everything about me. But, then again, I guess you don’t. ;-) Let’s see… I have two huge Jack Sparrow posters hanging up in my bedroom. And no… I’m not obsessive. :-P

I haven’t commented in ages. Simply because I wondered where on earth OR had gone. It’s going to take a lot of re-adjusting for me to get used to use just being Amanda the blogger, I must admit.
Whilst your at being your new blogger self, grab some chocolate, a manipulation of Drarry and head on over to The Burrow when you can.
I’m not sure about my confession of the day. I mean, well, I’m a pretty dramatic OTT person that shares everything about her life.
But if you really want to know…
Sometimes I still read Sabrina The Teenage Witch and Dawson’s Creek.
I told you it wasn’t pretty.

I don’t know what’s wrong with maternity clothing; if you like it, wear it.
Confessions, huh? I’m not sure what to say. I can’t remember anything right now.
Well, aynway, I like the fjord-ish layout, despite the fact that it’s not your work. =) And thanks for your comment.

R U PREGNANT. TELL DA TRUTH.
Jennii on January 19, 2007 #
First, I’ll repeat what others have already said: if you like it, wear it.
My confession of the day would be that I haven’t studied at all this week — and that’s the actual truth.

Ehmm, I’ve been all my life ashamed that my uncle is gay.
Wow, I said it (trust me I have never confessed this to anyone my whole life).

I think everyone in my English class deserves to be shot.
Carina on January 19, 2007 #
I forgot to mention that I am in my English class right now.

If I hit you with my best shot, I’m afraid I would have to kill you, as it involves a friend of mine and she’s sworn me to secrecy. ;)
I have updated your link, though :D

Ummmm…. My confession is that I eat food on the carpet when I’m not allowed to? :P
Tracey on January 19, 2007 #
Oh, empire-waist clothing can be SOOO pretty…but I look super fat in them. But if it looks good, go for it!
My confession is that I eat Saltine crackers by the sleeve. :P

Congratulations on the new domain! (I’m apparently a little late, but hey. :D)
I confess that I can’t really think of a confession to make. How about that I tell my piano teacher I practice more than I really do? She doesn’t ask anymore, though. Probably figured out I wasn’t telling the truth.

Oh Nellie, that blasphemous rumour mongerer! Me, stalk? NO WAY!
My confession: I have a crush on one of my visitors @ PSGR…
Rhiannon on January 19, 2007 #
