But Georgia, 30, was left gutted after trying on the very 'offensive' items.
Posting on social media, the mum-to-be gave her followers a close-up look at her new buys, which she ordered online after trying to 'look for a bit of a bargain.'
Opening up on the ordeal, she said: 'I can't believe this happened to me - so I'm not gonna call the brand out because I did manage to get a refund and I'm just not one of those people, I actually don't wanna tarnish a brand, but what they [did] was wrong on so many levels.
'So picture this - here I am, innocent pregnant woman having a scroll, just trying to find some nice clothes for my holiday that don't make me look like a sack of c**p.'
Georgia then modelled her new cropped blouse, which she described as the 'least offensive' of the bunch.
She acknowledged: 'Now this is not the worst, but it literally feels like tracing paper or like it was made from an old Rizla packet.
'I'm not being funny, it looks nothing like that [the online listing].'
Following this, Georgia tried on a blue, striped mini dress and was left crossing her legs to cover herself, as she continued: 'That is a joke. I look like something off of Peter Pan.
'If anyone wants it, feel free to send over your address - you're welcome to it.'
After this, the reality star showed off the 'most expensive' and 'worst item' of her haul, as she revealed: 'I was considering wearing this for my baby shower - most expensive, most offensive by far.'

Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollecito infamous kiss recreated in new tv drama
The infamous kiss between Amanda Knox and boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito has been recreated for a new TV drama. The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, a new Hulu series, follows the life of Knox, who spent four years wrongfully imprisoned for the murder of roommate Meredith Kercher. One scene in the drama, which premiered on Wednesday (August 20), shows Grace Van Patten, playing Knox, kissing Giuseppe De Domenico, who plays Sollecito, just days after the murder in November 2007. The kiss, which took place outside the flat where Kercher's body was found, resulted in some in the media portraying Knox as a 'sinister seductress'. Knox and Sollecito were convicted of the killing, before later being acquitted when drifter Rudy Guede was found guilty.

Now, according to Daily Mail, Channel 4 has opted not to bring the show back for a second season.

'The series being parked is reflective of changing audience habits where programmes remotely reminiscent of noughties hits that created a shame culture on other people's lives and their struggles for entertainment purposes is widely shunned.' Across the five episode series, the participants travelled across Japan, Texas, Tonga and India to try weight loss treatments. This also included discovering diet secrets, and experiencing the different cultural relationships to food in both positive and negative ways.

In this country I don't feel comfortable, and for me personally, it isn't somewhere I would come back." 'I don't want to die young!' sobs Around The World In 80 Weighs star as she breaks down after heart-wrenching warning After that, the group moved on to Tonga, which has one of the highest obesity rates in the world.

Shonda Rhimes: Bridgerton isn't a romance - it's a workplace drama
It began with an abandoned novel in a hotel room."I was sick, and in bed and I don't even like romance novels," says Shonda Rhimes."But I read it, and despite being ill, dragged myself out of bed and down to the nearest book shop to buy them all."The book was The Duke and I by Julia Quinn. The first of eight novels about the children of a family in regency England, it was perhaps not the obvious choice for a woman of colour - but became the basis for Rhimes's hit series Bridgerton, starring Nicola Coughlan, Jonathan Bailey and Simone showrunner's contribution to television was honoured on Wednesday when she was awarded the inaugural Edinburgh fellowship at the TV festival. "I didn't see it as a romance," she says. "It was more of a workplace drama. "The women don't have power in other areas of their lives, the power is in how they marry, so it becomes a workplace. And that's where the drama is."More importantly, I could see myself in them. If a black woman in 21st century America can see herself in regency England, it's a good story."Speaking to Mishal Husain on stage at the festival, which is marking its 50th year, she told delegates she applied for film school rather than law school because she read an article that said it was harder to get in - and as the youngest of six children, she wanted to impress her leaving film school, she worked as an office administrator but wrote in her spare time. Her first idea, a romantic comedy about an older white woman, accidentally matched to a younger black man, was sold but never made. The birth of her first child gave her time to watch lots of television."I watched all of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and started to realise, ah that's where the character development happens," she said."You also realise how important these TV characters are. You spend more hours with Meredith Grey, that you spend with your own family."Meredith Grey is the titular character of Grey's Anatomy, the series Rhimes created in 2005 after a show about female war correspondents was rejected and she was told the head of Disney wanted a medical became a huge hit."Every week, the ratings would go up and up and I had no idea what that meant because I'd never worked in TV before," she said. "And then the network started to send me presents." The network - ABC - relied on the show for their lucrative Thursday night slot and continue to make it today with season 22 and the 450th episode currently in Rhimes's production company, was a play on Disneyland and is now one of the most influential television companies in the has offices in New York, Los Angeles and London, where Bridgerton is admits the arrival of the show in Christmas 2020, when the world was in lockdown, boosted viewing figures - "my stories help people escape, rather than ground them in reality" - but even she is surprised by the extent of the said: "It wasn't just a global show. It became a lifestyle brand. People got Bridgerton tea sets, there were Bridgerton proms and weddings." Each season concentrates on a different member of the Bridgerton family. She plans to make all eight books in the series, with season four which is focused on Benedict Bridgerton currently in post to her decision to reflect a diverse range of people on screen, she insists that she would never make a show "that didn't have me in it."She said she wasn't aware of media criticism of the show as "woke" and and thought a headline saying it "pandered to woke culture" was "cute".She said she was astonished to be the inaugural winner of the Edinburgh Fellowship said: "Most of the time, I'm alone and writing so it's moments like these that make you realise the impact of what you do."
