Maternity Dressing Looking good through the nine months. Assemble your maternity wardrobe carefully - you don't have to feel and look frumpy. Thanks to the choices available, the times of hiding expanding stomachs under layers of fabric are finally passé. The following are tips to keep in
mind when shopping for maternity wear:
Size Up Look for good maternity wear which
adjusts to fit your body's needs as you grow and develop physically, readjusts
as your body slims down, and can even double as nursing wear. Be careful
in selecting appropriate size. Always buy with room-to-grow. You can't
imagine how large you'll be at nine months. Dungarees are a great choice.
Splurge A Little To take care of formal outings it's
better to have a few great ensembles than many mediocre ones. Definitely
invest in one outfit that makes you feel special. A sexy dress, black velvet
pants and a swingy top or a stunning salwar suit can make you look like
a million dollars when you feel anything but.
Restrictions A-part Don't wear tight belts, socks or
stockings with elastic bands. Also avoid clothing that may draw attention
to your middle. Never-ever wear a belt as a fashion accessory even if you're
proud of your new burgeoning belly. It's simply not flattering.
Wear Appropriate Undergarments You'll look and feel better if your
underwear is comfortable. Pregnancy underwear and maternity/nursing bras
will make you feel more comfortable, no matter what clothing you're wearing
as a top layer. Some things in life you just shouldn't live without! Always
remember whatever is most comfortable is best!
Dress Cool Buy lighter weight garments than
you normally would buy. Also layer your clothing. Your metabolic rate increases
by about 20 percent when you're pregnant, which means that if everyone
else is shivering, you're might find yourself complaining about the heat.
With a layered look, you can peel clothes off as needed. On cold days,
put a T-shirt or polo under a sweater.
Shoe Sense This is not the time to be strutting
around in stilettos. Choose comfortable, low heeled shoes or shoes with
wide, chunky heels instead. And buy slip-ons - bending is a problem later
on. Thanks to fluid retention, you'll probably have bigger feet now than
you did pre-pregnancy.
