It helps that this top that I bought last year at Nordstrom was already pretty big to begin with because it has been great in adding to what I can wear during this pregnancy. I haven't bought many maternity items this time around but believe you me, my belly is huge this time around. I'm finding that tunics have been great to wear and purchase recently because they are pieces that I can also wear post-pregnancy. Maternity bottoms had to be purchased because, at least for me, there was no way around that. I don't mind those purchases though since I work 5 loooong days a week and constantly reuse (of course wash!) them throughout the week. Dresses are also a great way to wear during pregnancy that don't necessarily have to be maternity. I am by no means against maternity clothes but it's also important for me to be cost efficient and find pieces that I can also wear after birth. I do have to say though that maternity fashion has come a long way and there's so many cute options now!

I'm so glad I found your blog! I'm pregnant, too. Just a little behind you, I think, so seeing what your wear to look professional and still be comfortable and not spend a fortune has been so helpful for me! I agree with the maternity pants thing- it's necessary. But the fact that floaty tops and dresses are in now already helps a lot!
ReplyDeleteYou look so great! I love your maternity looks. :) Makes me excited to maybe get to that point, one day.
