How can I still look cute and comfortable? Will I have to buy a whole new wardrobe? Can I still be fashionable? These and more are questions soon-mums-to-be ask. After all, is said and done, the answer to every doubt is yes. You can still look stylish and great in your condition. Simply follow these tips below:
1. Make the most of what is in your closet
You don’t need to run to the mall and go on a shopping spree unless you really want to. If you have the extra spending money and want to treat yourself to a new wardrobe of the trendiest pregnancy fashion, by all means, do so. However, you really don’t need to spend a lot of money to adjust your weekly attire to accommodate your pregnancy. You can easily incorporate pieces from your current wardrobe into your new pregnancy wardrobe. Invest in comfortable clothing that grows with you.
2. Wear workout clothes
As your belly expands, you will be grateful for comfortable workout clothes. Stretchy yoga pants and leggings are especially great. They fit you now, and they will fit you in a few months. You can exercise in them or just lounge around the house. If you have a pair of black workout leggings that you love, you can always rely on them when real pants become too uncomfortable.
3. Wear more flowy tops
Your flowy tops will be your best friend. You can wear them at any stage and still look fashionable. Throw on a cute flowy top, pair it with black booties, and you are set for a night out. If you’re going out on date night and still want to feel sexy, pick a flowy blouse with a plunging neckline to show off your growing breasts.
4. Keep a comfortable foot wear
If you feel uncomfortable in something from your pre-expecting wardrobe, put it away. Don’t wear it just because you have it. If it isn’t comfortable, don’t wear it. As your body changes, you want to feel as comfortable as possible and what you wear has a big impact on that. As the months progress, you may notice your feet and ankles starting to swell. This can be a big source of discomfort, so choose your footwear accordingly.
5. Go for a new bra
Most importantly, invest in new, comfortable undergarments. The first big change in your body you will probably notice is that your breasts are getting larger and more tender. Don’t let them cause you any discomfort! Treat your breasts with the care and respect they deserve. Invest in a good, supportive bra. It doesn’t have to be totally utilitarian either. If you can find a bra that helps you feel sexy, go for it. Make sure your new bra is comfortable and supportive.
