Fashionable Free Spirit
Your wardrobe is built around flowing fabrics, interesting jewelry, and earth and jewel tones. Comfort is high on your list of priorities, but not at the expense of style and individuality. Textured fabrics, interesting prints, and timeless accessories create a wardrobe that allows for endless combinations. This style is sure to work well with pregnancy.
Celebrity Counterpart
Nicole Richie. With her maxi-dresses, statement jewelry, and loose hair, Nicole has grown into the picture of an earth mama. Yet, as evidenced by her lines of jewelry, clothing, and shoes, she keeps it current and stylish. She references the bohemian look of the past, while adding in modern edge with stylish glasses, heels, and make up.
Try this:
- Find long dresses that flatter your figure. Experiment with length and cut to find the one that suits your shape.
- Try soft and comfortable shoes, like moccasins. They will be easy on your swollen feet, while maintaining your style.
- Use layering to help with temperature fluctuations. Your hormones may have you sweating one moment and shivering the next. Flowing sweaters can pair easily with any outfit to give you options when the temperature changes.
- Lose the large, heavy bags that may mess with your balance and hurt your already overworked back. Pare down to the essentials, and find a lightweight purse that works for you.
- Work with what you have. Pairing maxi-dresses with sweaters or lose shirts with maternity jeans can make your non-maternity clothes functional throughout your nine months. Supplement your wardrobe with maternity basics like slim cut pants, jeans, and camis. Use your accessories - jewelry, scarves, and glasses - to maintain your fashion identity.
