Having a bun in the oven is both exciting and trying, don’t you agree? Mommies-to-be have to juggle between morning sickness and their ever-bulging bellies. But they shouldn’t expect to wear just anything and charge out only because they are ‘expecting!’ Moreover, this is the period that they must look nothing less than ‘Woa-ow!’
Though looking elegant should be the priority for you, you must also pay attention to comfort. Never compromise with that! There are a few bits and bobs that I want you to remember before starting on this vo(gue)yage:
- Shop smart. Pick those outfits you can do something about after the baby arrives
- Remember to be sexy (Pregnancy can turn you into Grinch!)
- Don’t break up with belts
- Muddle through the bump and the accessories
- Let the diva in you shine
Here are some stylish maternity looks for all wow mommies-to-be..
1. Date night

2. Girls’ night out

The best stress buster during the trimesters! SATC is right about girlfriends being the real soulmates! Separates can be a good idea. You can complete the look with a pop colour blazer. For an early bump, peplum is worth a try.
3. ‘Sport’ing that bump

How we love the dungarees! This look allows you to don denim without the fear of it being too tight at your bulge.
4. Not-so-little black dress

Black (fashion) magic done by the celebs are very easy to replicate in real life. Just make sure the dress isn’t too short to avoid unnecessary hide and seek because of your dress slipping upwards!
5. Tie-ups

It’s very easy to carry a folk print long dress for a brunch invitation. Throw on a cotton shirt to layer the look.
6. Hat-tricks!

When Kourtney Kardashian was preggy for the third time, she looked nothing less than stunning in this horizontal striped-dress. The hat is a pretty add-on!
7. The ‘jean’ pool

A nude maternity gown can be made to stand out by just slipping on a denim jacket. Some ‘blues’ are good!
8. The bridesmaid

So the best friend decides to tie the knot when you are running on your third trimester? We can work that out. Our suggestion: Don’t try something too tight because the ceremony will be a little longer than your normal activities. So you need to breathe through it!
9. Lively, indeed

If Blake Lively can do it, so can you? Showing a little skin, but in the right places, don’t hurt anyone!
10. Casuals

How to look chic in them? Ask the Victoria’s Secret mama! Try a blanket scarf for more drama.
11. Going retro

Kate Middleton kept it all royal throughout her pregnancy! To add range to your wardrobe even you can include polka.
12. Winter is coming

A racing heartbeat and a leather jacket, that’s a match made in heaven! Just because you are pregnant it does not mean that you dress up matronly for God’s sakes! If you are avoiding denim in this particular outfit combination, we suggest you keep the booties leather too.

Trust Kim K when it comes to preggy-primming (though the first time she was disastrous!). I mean just look at those gladiators! Matching your lace-up gladiators with a wrap dress will transform you into a fashion icon in the snap of two fingers! So go ahead and break those boys.
This pregnancy ‘bear’ but don’t look like one! 😉
