I'm sure most of my fellow pregnant ladies will agree that the urge to live in leggings is, at times, overwhelming.
When we do resist (because we actually have to wear something decent), it can be tricky to know what to put on. Casual dressing is one area women in general struggle with all the time. On the vast majority of personal shopping trips I do with clients, women tell me that going out and occasion wear is easy, but casual and weekend wear is when it gets tricky.
The challenge is striking that balance between being stylish and chic yet casual, comfortable and practical. Add an ever-expanding bump into the mix and, well, things get a whole lot trickier.
Here, I’ve styled a few weekend wear looks to hopefully give you some ideas and inspiration.
- RUNNING ERRANDS
Comfy, casual but still on trend. This is a super-stylish look. These leopard print plimsolls are gorgeous, and add a really edgy vibe to your casual wear look. Plus, cardigans like this are your best friend during pregnancy - when layering is key.
2. LUNCH WITH THE GIRLS
Channel your inner nautical chick with this totally stylish look, which is perfect for catch-up time with the girls. Navy, white and red is a classic combination that never dates.
3. DINNER WITH THE IN-LAWS
We all know swollen pregnant feet and heels are a no-no (for most of us anyway). So, hello wedges - the comfiest alternative to heels you will find. This is the perfect look for a BBQ with friends or dinner with the in-laws. Chic, elegant, stylish but still comfy.
