Maternity Clothing Stores and Pregnancy Fashion Tips

You’ll be in need of some trendy maternity clothes if you’re a first time mama-to-be or seasoned pregnancy expert. We all have days when we’re expecting when we feel a little less than amazing so grab all your favorite maternity clothing and exude happiness.

Pregnancy is a very special time in a woman’s life and shouldn’t be complicated with dull or uncomfortable attire. Style can absolutely continue into motherhood and we’ve put together a list of places to purchase pregnancy clothing on-line and in the Toronto area that will be sure to make you feel amazing and look your very best while carrying your little one.

Maternity Fashion Tips

Invest in fabulous basic items that you can build on and layer with adorable shirts, cardigans and sweaters that co-ordinate great together. This helps to make the most out of our maternity clothing budget. Fall is a great time to layer clothing items. We’ve all heard that term “bun in the oven”. So when that pregnancy furnace kicks in, just shed a layer of clothing to cool down.

Use accessories to accentuate the narrowest part of your body such as under the bust or hips. Tops with empire bodice lines are a great way to do this. Adding belts to a maternity wardrobe is a great way to accessorize and show off your beautiful pregnancy curves.

Other items that are great value are maternity dresses. Not only are they a top and bottom in one, they are quick and easy to put on when you’re in a hurry.

We all have sore feet when we’re expecting. Invest in some cute shoes with a lower heel. Sometimes our feet swell and grow into another size or two during pregnancy. You’ll be much more comfortable purchasing a couple of new pairs of shoes then squeezing into your old shoes.

Jewelry brings your outfit to an entirely new level. Add a necklace or earrings to bring sophistication to your outfit and draw attention to your glowing pregnancy face.

Accessorize with trendy handbags this season. A large bag can easily be carried looking great beside your beautiful growing baby belly! You could even consider using this bag later as a classy diaper bag after baby arrives.
