French maternity

I stumbled upon this French maternity line, Envie de Fraises. It's so effortless. They've got a lot of basics with stylish twists.

Grey dress, €39.99

Plaid skirt, €34.99

Tricolor top, €22.99
Collar shirt, €34.99

Tunic, belt, and legging set, €39.99

The tunic, belt, and legging set looks especially cool and versatile. I've never looked good in a drop waist but I was pretty pleased with my attempt. I didn't exactly have a belt, so I used an old scarf. None of my old belts fit anymore.

Lingerie is what the french do best and this site has some gorgeous maternity sets.

Maternity/nursing nightgown €29.99

Blue stripe nursing bra, €45

Purple nursing bra - €34.95

It's begining to look a lot like Christmas

Some people might think that holiday maternity wear is cheese. SO WHAT?! Cheese is delicious and so are these shirts. I am all for working a themed.

My mother bought me this shirt, which I wore with pride to my family's US down on the farm Thanksgiving. You know what? I think food tastes better when you're being festive.

Sleeping Elf, £25.50

There are a lot of options out there. T shirt makers are kind of falling over themselves to make the best baby/Christmas themed shirt. Some of them are so cute it's nauseating. We all know I don't like anything too sweet; here are some of my favorites:

Baby it's cold outside tshirt, £9.99
Santa Claus tshirt, £19.35
Penguin Jumper, £24.99
Filth animal tshirt, £25.50

Pair your Christmas themed top with this cool festive skirt from +Topshop and your warmest boots.

Red plaid skirt, £24

You could get a Christmas sash from +Etsy to accessorize some holiday into your look. The idea is to look as much like a present as you possibly can. Bonus: when you aren't wearing it you can use it as a decoration or an accent on a wrapped gift to pass it on when you're done with it.

Poinsettia sash, $9.71

Christmas bow sash, £8.99

Happy Holidays y'all.

American Apparel Wishlist

American Apparel doesn't technically have a maternity line, but there are a lot of trendy staples and accessories that could fit in your pregnancy wardrobe and flatter your bump. Maternity doesn't have to mean matronly, you can still be sexy and stylish.

Two Color Pantyhose (£14)

Printed Twist Scarf (£15)- My favorite kind of scarf! They stay put and keep the hair out of my face.

Turtleneck Dress (£22)- I'm a sucker for a curve hugging black turtleneck.

Cat Eye Sunglasses (£30) Oo la la

Camouflage Backpack (£44)

Wire Bracelet (£15)

Wooden Sandal (£80)- I said no heels but these look stable, pair them with girly socks!

Lace Ankle Sock (£8)

Spaghetti Strap Maxi Dress (£36)- A great basic.

**Note: I do realize that the black turtleneck dress, if worn by a pregnant body, would likely either not fit right or would be stretched beyond recognition. I may or may not be in denial about my lack of a waistline. **
