Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Fitted Maternity Dress- An Easy Outfit for Your Third Trimester

April 20, 2020 by Katie Haller

Fitted maternity dress
Being quarantined at home was not the way I had expected to spend my third trimester.  I have been looking forward to spring my entire pregnancy because I knew once it warmed up I’d be able to wear dresses.  Dresses are really one of the most comfortable things to wear when you are pregnant.  After wearing leggings almost non-stop my entire pregnancy, I’m sick of them.  I’m ready to pull out all my favorite dresses, that I can still fit into of course.  Being stuck at home isn’t going to stop me from dressing cute this spring.

One style of dress that I am a huge fan of while pregnant is a fitted dress.  I love being able to show off my baby bump.  I don’t know about you, but I feel that pregnancy is really the only time in your life that you can really accentuate your mid-section and be proud of your belly.  No need to try to suck in.  You might as well take advantage of it while you can. 
Once you hit your 3rd trimester, it’s nice to have one or two fitted maternity dresses.  I have been able to get away with wearing most of my non-maternity dresses that are bump-friendly, but when it comes to my fitted dresses, it’s nice to have extra stretchy material in a maternity dress. 
Today’s look is all about showing off my growing bump.  This cute fitted maternity dress (HERE) was gifted to me from Sexy Mama Maternity.  I love how it shows off all my baby curves.  The little tie on the side really helps to show off my growing baby bump.  It’s also super comfortable, so it works just fine for hanging out around the house.

The Ultimate Spring Maternity Wardrobe

April 8, 2020 by Katie Haller

The Ultimate Spring Maternity Wardrobe
Having a baby due on the summer solstice means that each one of my trimesters has been through an entire season.  My first trimester was during the fall, the second was winter and now for my final season, I will be going through the spring.  I’m actually really excited that my third trimester is during the spring.  It’s not too hot, I can wear almost anything and I can’t wait to wear dresses and sandals!!

How to wear a maternity white t-shirt and maternity jeans
 Are you ready for another post on Building a Maternity Wardrobe on a Budget?  I hope so because today I’m sharing 6 easy ways to style 2 maternity wardrobe staples.  A white fitted maternity t-shirt and maternity jeans.  I always feel like having a good base to start with is key, then you can just build upon that with layers and accessories.  When you’re pregnant, you will find yourself wearing the same clothes over and over again so it’s always good to have some fresh outfit ideas.
