Maternity Clothing: Style Tips for Pregnant Women

Maternity Clothes.Some days ago I received an e-mail from a girl that follows my blog, she has some style problems recently because of… her baby bump! Who says that during pregnancy (and the months after delivery) you have to wear only shabby, sad giant shirts. So I asked some of my fashionable fellows that just had a baby to help me make this little guide about how to dress during pregnancy without giving up your style ( paying attention to comfort too). I also found some inspirational outfit on the Internet, They’re super cute! If you need some inspiration enjoy my tips!

Maternity Clothing: Style Tips for Pregnant Women

–

1. Buy clothes gradually
When you’re expecting a baby, it’s better to buy things step by step. Your body is changing day by day and clothes must fit your curves. You need to go shopping every once in while during pregnancy to find perfect clothes for your evolving body shape. This is also a good way to save some money!

2.Borrow from friends or buy at flea markets

If you don’t want to waste your money, my first piece of advice is to borrow some maternity clothes from friends if you have the chance. Pregnancy clothes obviously have been worn for a short time so they look new! For this reason you can also have a look among the stalls of a flea market or in a thrift shop: you might find something nice and almost new! I’m not saying that you should have a second hand maternity wardrobe but is a good way to be creative and add some low cost items to your “temporary wardrobe”, since wannabe moms often complain about the lack of outfit options ;)

3.Maternity Clothing: make the right choice
There’s no doubt that, buying  maternity clothing, designed for the body of an expecting woman is better than choosing a bigger size of regular clothes. Since often maternity clothing is not so cheap despite they’re going to be used for a limited amount of time, I recommend you to buy mainly basic items that can match with trendy and cool accessories. Skirts and pants will be perfect!

4. Don’t hide your baby bump
Should you show your growing belly? Definitely…yes! Be proud of your pregnancy, don’t hide it under shapeless, giant curtains. Take Hollywood celebrities as example: the more you show the cooler you are!

5. Where can I buy trendy clothes?
In low-cost franchise like Primark, Zara o H&M you can find some cool maternity collections. Why giving up your passion for fashion during pregnancy?!

6. Focus on the breast.
Everyone knows it… your breast is a big protagonist during and right after pregnancy. Support it properly and don’t hide it under wide sad clothes!

7. God bless leggings
Leggings are perfect because they go well with long vests and maxi sweatshirts and t-shirts. Besides, they’re super comfortable!

9. No high heels but not always flats
And what about shoes? No heels please, for the sake of your back! Flat sandals and flat shoes in general are not good either for the same reason. So you only have to choose among many different footwear trends: try a pair of platform shoes with some more inches to support your back!
