Re: FFC

  • @AdventureMama Preach on!

    @notasycophant I'm sorry your struggling, I've kinda given up on my body image for now... I've tried to cut back on my sweets but today I forgot about that. :-SS

  • @TheBeggsBunch & @lovelydaye , I'm in that weird phase too. Nothing fits &I'm hungry all the time. Maternity clothes are too big, my regular clothes won't even fit on my pinky finger. What's a girl supposed to do?
  • @notasycophant I can empathize. I'm having a really hard time with my body image. I hate how I look right now. I cried when I saw myself naked in my full length mirror the other day. Hugs to you.

    I'm so tired of weddings and showers and parties but RTR never disappoints! Lol

    I'm going to a wedding this weekend and I wish I was excited about my outfit. I had a freak out that all my dresses showed off my bloat. Borrowed some options from a friend but it was tough times. I can't wait to have an actual bump so I don't just feel flabby

    Literally on my way home to try on my rtr dress for a wedding I have tomorrow.
    I ordered one size and two sizes up from my normal size to account for the growing bump.
    ---------------Edit quote fail---------------
    My last order was a disaster. I didn't anticipate like you and I got my regular size and one size up but I really needed two sizes up just for my boobs. Now I'm even bigger so I have no idea what size to order so I haven't. I miss it though, I've got to wear some unbelievable dresses!

  • My FFC is that I JUST started separating my colors and whites while doing laundry. I suck. Well, technically not anymore.

    I don't do it unless something is new and a crazy color... Then it gets washed separate like red towels or something

    I rewear outfits to events over and over. I'm not about to rent a new outfit every time I go to something because I'm worried someone will see I wore the same dress to two completely different weddings.

    I have the same 2 or 3 dresses I wear to dh Christmas parties every year. Seriously who is going to remember. And if they do I don't give a f.
  • If I wear maternity clothes (which let us all hang out because of the stretchy material) you can tell I'm pregnant... However I don't want someone asking me how far along and I'm over here like "12 weeks" X_X

    Didn't even know NOT rewearing outfits was a thing (except for celebrities, I guess). I have a weird body shape. I'm super tall and curvy and very few dresses look good on me without being too tight on my boobs, too short, or showing off my stomach fat. If I find a dress that flatters, expect to see it at lots of events!
  • @cantobean yeah, I guess it is here! Someone here said they don't like "recycling" outfits and pics are posted on social media so they don't want to be seen in the same dress/outfit.

    Haha I found this black and white maxi dress that looks good and doesn't show my blah AND it's not too long which is a miracle and I have worn it a bunch
  • I recycle my normal day-to-day clothes all the time but I don't like to wear the same dress to a wedding more than once a season - so I wear a mix of stuff I own and fill in with Rent The Runway. I had six weddings this summer so I didn't want to be in same dress over and over you know?

  • I have two dresses that I wear to every wedding. Used to only be one. I thought about trying RTR for a wedding I have in September, but who knows how big I'll be then and if I could fit into anything "runway-esque". Forget it. Maxi dress it is.

  • I'll re wear dresses I own if I haven't worn them to other events lately and if they still fit, which isn't a guarantee since I've been a range of sizes. Like PP, I've had several weddings each year for the last few years, some super fancy in which case I couldn't afford to buy an appropriate dress, most with the same groups of people, and it's nice to have some variety on those special occasions. Plus when else am I going to get to wear a designer dress for like $50!?

  • I'm not picky enough about clothes. I'll start to wear something different and second guess how I look or feel and then it's back to a go to outfit. I don't mind if people recognize it from some other event. Like they say in Bride Wars "When a dress works you work it hard" lol.

    I told my dad that people are spending hundreds to rent a dress to be a guest at a wedding not even in the wedding party and he said something about rich people blowing money on silly things..... So true.

    Fffc: I don't plan on spending hundreds on outfits for a wedding I'm the moh in. I already have to plan the parties and buy a dress for myself and a flower girl dress for dd.
    Guarantee the bride won't care if I've worn a dress or a shirt before

    Oh my gosh, yes. I really want to wear my maternity pants/tops to work here soon, but I don't want the embarrassment of telling people how NOT far along I am!

    Only one of my three sets of scrubs fits me comfortably anymore. Looks like I'll have to buy more before switching to maternity clothes. :(

    Second time around and all I keep thinking is that I don't remember looking/feeling like such a blimp this early last time!

    Honey yes. I wear scrubs too and only have 2-3 tops that still fit and only one wear of pants that fit nicely. I have 2 pairs of maternity pants from last time but with the stretchy belly band it actually makes my stomach stick out (I still have left overs from my first 2 babes) if I announce it and show I'm pregnant now I'm setting myself up for the "you havnt had that baby yet?!" When I'm only like, 6 months!
