Maternal America Red Front Tie Dress
Dear Girlfriends ~
As many of my fashionistas and girlfriends know, I am expecting a baby boy in April and the hubby and I are very excited. With the excitement comes my intense efforts to remain stylish while pregnant. I am currently in my fifth month and haven’t bought a single piece of maternity clothing (except a NY Giants shirt for the MNF game a few weeks ago)! I am elated. When I do eventualy gain a few more pounds, I plan to continue this pattern with stylish tunic and leggings OR a dress with opaque patterned tights and wedge boots.
There isn’t a rule that a pregnant women can’t be glam and must look frumpy. Who told you ladies that? Its easy to carry a little glam in your maternity clothes by following a few key steps.
Visiting a maternity shop can allow you to find styles that are trendy and comfortable. Comfort is very important to the dress of pregnant women. It is wise to find items that aren’t too tight, but look good.
Even if you can’t find a good maternity shop, all is not lost. Most department stores, even budget ones, have maternity departments. If you’re unsure at first, try a few items on before you buy them. This is the best way, to determine, if the clothing size, color, and style suit you. Don’t forget the wealth of the internet.
You’ll love this paisley print with banded neckline and lantern sleeves. Always a bestseller, Maternal America’s front tie dress is flattering and stylish. Cross front with tie makes this easy to wear. Tie can be worn in front below vneck or tied in back.

C&C Turtleneck Dress
Girlfriends, certain styles look especially good on pregnant women such as A-line skirts, empire-waist dresses and tops, and pencil skirts paired with swingy shirts. If you are feeling really self-conscious about your changing body accentuate other parts of your body that you feel more comfortable with.

Ella Moss styles and fabrics will work well through your pregnancy and are equally as stylish afterward. This stylish colorblock tunic looks great with pants,leggings, or jeans.
Ella Moss Harpo Tunic
So elegant, I love the simplicity (with a twist) of this maternity dress. It has an innate sense of style for day or evening.
The Knot Dress
To get people to notice your neck and shoulders choose a shirt with a ballet-cut or bateau neckline, or dress all in one color and add a scarf or some other stunning accessory. Then people will notice you’re accessories and after your pregnancy you won’t feel bad that you spent money on them because you can keep on wearing them. Some accessories could be a brightly colored piece of jewelry, a pair of shoes that match your handbag, a colorful scarf or a button-up sweater.
Pregginistas, many maternity offerings, are online for customers to take advantage of. If nothing else, you will be able to get ideas on style, you like. A money-saving tip for maternity clothing shopping is to avoid impulse buying. Make a list of a few must-have items that can go with almost everything.
Until the next style adventure,
