How to choose your pregnancy clothing

Tips and tricks to shop smart

When it comes to dressing during pregnancy you should know that comfort and style are the key.

Buying maternity clothes will be a real challenge but also an exciting task, so make sure that after you buy something you’ll get the best look!

Here are a few tips about how to choose your pregnancy clothing:

  • Avoid buying extra-large or plus-size clothing. Besides the fact that these baggy clothes are unflattering, you don’t want to invest in buying something that will make you look sloppy. Instead, invest in stylish, soft and comfortable clothing. For example a long maternity dress will make you look fabulous no matter what size you are. Choose flowy fabrics or a soft jersey fabric that can drape easily over your changing body. Avoid synthetics (polyester) because they will make you feel uncomfortable, and the texture might not be really great for your skin.

  • Opt for solid colors that create a slimming effect. That does not mean you should always wear black. You can choose from a wide range of colors: dark blue, dark green, grey and many others. To add flair to your monochromatic outfits, add some statement accessories, an infinity scarf in vibrant colors or a pair of amazingly comfortable shoes – it is also very important to treat your feet right during pregnancy.

Navy Dress; White Tank

 

  • Because the price is a real problem when buying maternity clothes, a great idea is to look for sales. Pay attention to the items that are out of season and instead of shopping for quantity, shop for quality. You should buy only the essentials: maternity tank tops, jeans, leggings and a few dresses. These, combined with items from your regular wardrobe will instantly update your look and will take you through the stages of your pregnancy in comfort and style. A classic dress with a slight A-line, which is narrower at the top and widens at the hem is really flattering and it’s an economical choice because only one piece may fit you during most of your pregnancy.

In order to create the right wardrobe that would flatter you throughout pregnancy, you should know how to shop smart and how to choose the right clothes to complete your wardrobe so that it lasts during and after pregnancy.
