you absolutely do not have to feel
uncomfortable and unattractive your entire
10 months! To help you out - here are
some simple secrets that I discovered
during my pregnancy to help me look and
feel good...
Top 10 tips for looking hot during your
pregnancy:
1. Don't give up on dressing up!
Being pregnant definitely does not mean
that you have to give up on dressing up!
I know, when you don't feel good it's hard
to get motivated to take that extra care -
but believe me, you will feel much better
when you do it. You don't have to go
overboard, just put on black pants, a nice
top, and some makeup and get out!
2. Buy in bigger sizes
buy regular clothes that are 1 or 2 sizes
bigger than you would normally wear. This
will help you to stay in style and feel
good about the way you look until you're
ready to fit into regular maternity
clothes (depending on your body, i'd say
around 4 months).
My favorite was a one-piece trendy sweat
outfit - I bought it in a large, whereas
pre-pregnancy I was a small! It was great
because the waist was loose and slightly
elastic, with a drawstring so I could
adjust it and stretch it - I wore it up
until I was 6 months!
3. Below the belly is in
low-rise is "in" - take advantage of it,
it's the perfect fit for a pregnant tummy!
I bought a pair of black low-waisted
stretch pants that lasted me quite a
while.
The best purchase I made, though, was a
stretchy black, low-waisted skirt that
lasted me my whole pregnancy (i also wore
it a lot after I delivered!).
4. Flaunt that belly baby!
Buy fitted tops that show off your belly
(don't hide in a tent!). Your pregnant
belly is beautiful so show it off! If
fitted isn't your style - that's ok - but
trying to cover up in over-sized shirts
will only make you look bigger! Really!
5. Quality is key
spend a little money on some key pregnancy
pieces such as a white blouse, black
pants, black skirt, jeans etc. Good
quality products should be adjustable and
fit you for most of your pregnancy.
6. Get help from the professionals
make sure you shop at a maternity store
where the sales people are knowledgeable.
The first pair of pants that I was
"wrongly" advised to buy ended up fitting
me for a whole two weeks!
7. Accessorize
wear a necklace, bracelet or nice shoes to
"dress your outfit up". I loved my little
sparkly necklace - it attracted everyone's
attention away from those parts that I
wasn't feeling so good about!
For those of us heading into winter a cute
scarf, hat, or fun bag can also do the
job!
8. Spoil your feet
swollen feet are one of the most common
pregnancy symptoms. Besides a good
footbath, choose flat slip-ons or zip up
boots (if you're in winter!).
9. Stay cool
be sure to dress in layers - you don't
want to get caught sweating buckets when
your pregnancy thermostat kicks in (hello
overheating!).
10. Stretch is best
flaunt your assets by wearing stretchy
fabrics - and of course, showing some
skin! You'll do even better if you dress
for your body type and attract attention
to your good parts, not your bad ones!
