OK I am going to list the stuff on here Trinity and you can tell me what you fancy. I think MN Towers are too busy at weekends to forward on our little insignificant CATs

your wonderful thankyou

FrannyandZooey · 07/10/2006 18:37

Lots of these are not actual maternity clothes but ordinary stuff in a larger size (I found it cheaper to get that sort and also my friend gave me some bits). Right, first up we have the fab and sexy purple dungarees. These are denim ones that I dyed purple and my word they are divine. They are not truly maternity dungarees, just baggy size 18 dungies.

Then we have a denim pinafore dress that I dyed pink. It is a size 18 from Next.

More in a bit after ds is in bed...

lol good point but what does pshaw mean?????

TheUnholyTrinity · 07/10/2006 20:03

ooooooooooooooh I get it now lol duh pass me the dunce hat

FrannyandZooey · 07/10/2006 20:59

I don't get any of it

Anyway here I am again. They really are rather bizarre, and not very trendy, but they are certainly different and used to make me smile a lot

Right there are some sensible clothes too.

Sz 12 proper Maternity jeans from Next in a bootcut style, over the bump has a soft pouch and they are in a dark blue denim colour. They are pretty long, I don't know how tall you are.

Polo neck black skinny rib type jumper size 18 from M+S, fitted nicely to show off my bump

Long sleeve black top from DPs, size 16, has pretty shaped neck line, quite flattering over bump

Black combat maternity trousers size 12, from DPerkins, have adjustable waist, quite light material, lots of pockets, zips at bottom etc. Quite long again.

A sort of long chiffony sort of shirt, black, with (ie calf length on me and I am tall), with splits up the side, quite dressy and chic, you would wear it over a strappy top and some nice trousers I would think, for going out?

And finally stripy multi coloured knee socks for wearing with the pinafore dress.

Tell me if you want photos of anything and I will understand if none of it is your cup of tea.

I think there was another box because I used to have this fab wrap top which showed off pregnant norks in a fab style but dp says he couldn't find it and he is not going up in the loft twice in one day

TheUnholyTrinity · 07/10/2006 21:05

oooh franny, you are wonderful
It all sounds lovely
I would love to borrow everything but the polo neck jumper, don't like things up around my neck

I hope you really don't mind

I'm 5'8" so long is good, I seem to have quite long legs.

I don't mind if you suddenly feel that you don;t want to lend them to me, I understand,but if you could I would take great care of them and return them when dd3 makes an appearance

now get on my sleeping thread, cause I'm sitting here chewing my knuckles as dh tries again tonight

FrannyandZooey · 07/10/2006 21:06

Oh good re tallness. Will try to parcel them up this week (will be fairly large parcel I think?)

oh aargh re sleeping thread. Will find it now

OP posts:
TheUnholyTrinity · 07/10/2006 21:10

would you like me to pay the postage, I will happily do that

or would you like payment for the borrowing of them or like a deposit for if anything happens to them babble babble ramble you know what I mean...........maybe

FrannyandZooey · 07/10/2006 21:16
