Maternity Inspiration Styles

I caught up with 3 pregnant girlfriends this weekend who asked for style tips on staying fabulous through their pregnancy.  EF, CT and JT - this entry it dedicated to you gorgeous mamas! 

1.  Jersey is your friend
Jersey dresses are comfortable and stylish.  Look at how amazing Selma Blair looks in the Isabella Oliver maternity dresses.  I reallyl love the olive one in the middle ... the color is great, as is the boatneck and the rusching.  (hint - see my posting on Rich Rocks NYC later this week - there's a necklace that looks a lot like the one Selma Blair is wearing).



2.  Show off your legs
Just because you have a bump doesn't mean you can't still show off some leg.  Kate Hudson looks adorable in these above-the-knee dresses.  I personally can't tolerate heels (pregnant or not!), but if you can swing it - a pair of 5" Louboutins will make you one sexy hot mama. 




3.  Accessorize
Now's the time to play up scarves, necklaces, shoes, bags, hats - anything to draw attention away from your belly! 



4.  Look great in long, flowy dresses
I love the way pregnant women look in long, flowy dresses.  Small all-over prints tend to work better than bold geometric prints (depending on the stage of your pregnancy).  Bold colors (think jewel tones) work great too!  In chilly SF weather throw on a cardigan to complete the look.
