How to Dress-Up during Pregnancy

Dressing-up during pregnancy is fun. However, dressing-up in a right manner is a must during pregnancy. Some women like to show-off their bump and some may not like to do so. But it is very necessary for a pregnant woman to dress-up properly. Read on to know more about how to dress-up during pregnancy.

Maternity clothes have come a long way and styling during pregnancy is getting quite popular. Gone are the days when pregnancy and the pregnant belly was something that has to be hidden. Today, women like to celebrate the pregnancy period and like to dress up stylishly and not like a tent. There are different styles of clothes that look good and make the mother-to-be comfortable too.

Attire for Early Pregnancy

  • During this time you can check out your own wardrobe and find something that would be comfortable and relaxing as well as compliment with your styles too.
  • You can wear the shirts with buttons by keeping few of the buttons open and wearing a cotton vest or camisole keeping it relaxed for the upper body too because your boobs will also grow during this period.
  • You can also wear figure-hugging dresses below your knees if you find that comfortable and complementing.
  • Only when you start experiencing a little pinch, buy clothes that are larger than your normal size.
  • Choose deep V-necks to slim your large bust.
  • Long, lean lines look good and stylish during pregnancy.
  • Long length clothes with dark colours look good.
  • If you like patterns, you should restrict it to the area that is of your normal body shape. This is because the pattern stretches on you and will make you look even bigger than your normal size.
  • While choosing the colour it is good to dress in same colour from head to toe.
  • You can wear darker separates and compliment it with light colour jacket.

Remember, no two pregnancy bumps are of the same size. So, when you shop around you will have to analyze the size of your belly and then shop accordingly. The dressing style or senses is more or less the same because other than the belly, your other parts of body are same like your legs, basic body figure, skin tone and so on. The only thing is to avoid looking huger than you are.

Accessories

  • Regardless of increase in your belly and bust size, you can still shop and wear jewelry. Just avoid long length necklaces. Keep the neckline jewelry short and if you want you can wear a bit wider one too.
  • Rings can get tight during late weeks of pregnancy. You can style yourself with designer jewelry that have expandable attachments.
  • You can use large scarves as accessories and this draws the attention from the large bust and belly to the face.
  • Wear wrap dresses for your upper body that gives big-tented dress a diversion and focuses on neck and face.
  • Maxi dresses are best as they keep you looking feminine and help you stay in trend too.

As the weeks increase, comfort should be the main criterion for dressing. If you want to dress in western outfits, you can use the maternity support bands that are available, as this will ease the pressure in your pelvis. While dressing, do not forget about the shoes. Keep your shoes comfortable and stick to flat sleepers or flat boots.

If you are able to avoid heels, it will be good for your back or keep it for very special occasions and wear for a short period of time and make sure you do not move much or stand when wearing heels during pregnancy.

If you are able to keep in mind these tips, you will dress up comfortably as well as stylishly too.

I feel comfortable dressing is the mantra of pregnancy. Anything in which you feel happy and comfortable is good choice in pregnancy. Accessories are an add-on but the pregnancy glow makes women look beautiful naturally.

Maternity wear is now not so boring. It does not mean those granny nighties or baggy type clothes. Online shopping for maternity wear is more fun and easy. I always shop online as then I do not have to look out for shops that sell maternity wear.
