Let the Wardrobe Refashioning Begin!

Before my first child was born, I decided I was going to buy an outfit to wear home from the hospital. One, of course, that was not maternity. I ended up buying a pink "lounge set" online from the Gap that looked cute and comfy. When the day came to wear that outfit home, there I was with a post-partum belly that hung over the flimsy elastic, a drawstring that had to be double-tied to stay shut, and a kangaroo pocket top that only emphasized that I'd just had a baby. Nice.
It was a learning experience for me, for sure.
Lesson number one: don't ever buy something called a "lounge set" unless you intend to do nothing but lounge in it.
Lesson number two: Maternity clothes are perfectly acceptable to wear not only home from the hospital after baby is born, but for as long as you darn please. You did have a baby, after all. Take advantage of that four-inch wide elastic waistband as long as possible!
Anyhoo...
This pair of pants was the first thing I thought of when I decided to try Disney's T-Shirt Scarf. Here they are, pre-slaughter.

Ick.

And here they are after... wheee! This is my new favorite scarf! Dh's taking us all out for dinner tonight and I know exactly which pink lovely I'll have around my neck... thanks Disney for a great tutorial!

Off to go find more treasures in my closet!
