The One with the Awkward Stage


Monday, October 8, 2012

Can someone please nominate me for What Not to Wear? Every morning I walk into my closet and want to cry. I'm in that awkward stage where my maternity clothes are much too big and my non-maternity clothes are much too small. Nothing fits! Plus it's still a billion degrees here (we have the AC running 24/7!) and I'm itching to wear pants and long sleeves and sweatshirts and scarves and hats. All at once. Is it ever going to cool down? I'm sure in three months when I'm freezing my tush off I'll be wishing it were summer again. What can I say, I'm wishy washy :) When it's hot I want to be cold, when it's cold I want to be hot.

I've still got 15 pounds to go 'til I reach my pre-pregnancy weight, 25 to go before I'm at my final goal: Fox pre-pregnancy weight. Until then, my assortment of rainbow colored pants will remain hung and untouched. They'll probably be out of style by the time I can fit into them again :)

  1. Never worry about things going out of style... they all come back eventually -- lol! :)

  2. I bought some cheap pants for that stage, because it was driving me nuts to have nothing fit.

  5. Uggh...unfortunately one year later, I'm still at that stage. A stack of about 15 pairs of jeans went under the bed and I had to buy new ones because of muffin top. Tear :*(

  6. I remember that stage... it took a little over 4 months after I had Edward to go back to my pre-pregger clothes! Good luck! Your face looks beautiful!! Maybe your hips are a little bigger, mine are since I had Edward but there's nothing wrong with a little curve :)

  7. Oh, I so remember this. I actually have another wardrobe for my "awkward, in-between" time. LOL. Thankfully, some are hand-me-downs from a friend and some I just bought at the thrift store. LOL. I hated that phase! Although... I did wear lots of leggings and yoga pants. LOL. ;-)

    You can do it! Hang in there! And you are so lucky you can pull of those cute colored pants. There is NO WAY I could do that. Truly. You're much cuter. :-)

  8. I'm so sorry you are feeling this way, Paige!! I think you are doing a fab job at your weight goal! I've been trying to lose ten pounds for four years--and I think I've put on about fifteen....so technically, I need to lose 25! I wish I knew how to do it!

    As for pants going out of style--I think you will be fine!!! I saw for Fashion week that neon and color blocking will still be in until Spring 2013!!! HOOOORAY:) And I have to say that you have some awesome colored pants in your closet!! I'm jealous:)

    You CAN do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HUGS!!! <3 <3 <3

  9. I was allll about leggings when I was in the awkward stage. But I feel like it is way too hot for them now...so let's all pray for colder weather so we can layer and look cute no matter what!!
    P.S. I still think you look cute every time I see you, so you're not all that awkward! =)
