Maternity Dresses
Being pregnant is one of the most exciting times of a woman's life. But also means we need to adjust our wardrobe with more flexible clothing that will see us through the varying stages of maternity such as maternity dresses, maternity evening wear, maternity formal dresses, maternity cocktail dresses. The good news is that maternity clothing is designed to make a woman feel as beautiful on the outside as she feels inside with her growing baby tummy.
Being pregnant is a great opportunity to blossom, the uplifting expectation of a new baby will give you the confidence to try something new. So don't be afraid to spend a little on your maternity dresses, maternity evening wear, maternity formal dresses, maternity cocktail dresses, but make sure you buy good quality, flexible maternity clothing, like the Seraphine Maternity Cocktail Dress featured available through
Queen Bee Maternity clothing.
Don't restrict yourself to believing that maternity dresses and other maternity clothing can only be worn when you are pregnant. Many of these beautiful maternity dresses stretch back into shape and can be worn post baby. The key is to choice quality items that have flexibility and versatility. Many of these maternity dresses allow you to alter the style so you can wear them in several different ways. While these maternity dresses may cost a little more upfront, they will serve the test of time, and will still be your favourites long after baby is out.
Choose classic styles & colours that you can add wraps, tops and other accessories to change your look, but keep your comfort.Black is slimming and a great base, but don't be afraid to show off your baby bump in some more festive colours. Celebrate your pregnancy!
Formal evenings can be daunting when you are pregnant, but Queen Bee offers some beautiful maternity evening wear; maternity dresses, maternity formal dress and even maternity cocktail dresses that will make you feel like a queen. You may need to choose some smaller heals or even flats but just make sure they are comfortable.
Choose a suitable dress in an appropriate colour. Go for black as a default, black is slimming, stylish and always in fashion. Black maternity formal dresses will always be in fashion, which means you can re-use the dress if you fall pregnant again, soon or later in your life.
Many maternity outfits stretch; this means you can wear the clothes when you are not pregnant! This is even more important when choosing maternity dresses because an outfit can be worn numerous times- when you are pregnant and when you are not! Even if you are not a 'dress' kind of girl, your maternity dress will not only make you feel glamourous, and comfortable, it also provides the right cooling for that internal heater that brings your body temperature up a few degrees.
Often stores have found maternity jeans were a hit with soon-to-be-mums, jeans are always an essential, the darker the denim the more flattering and the easier to dress up.
It is best to stick to choosing plain coloured basic wear. Dress up your basic maternity dresses or maternity clothes with different jackets, accessories and footwear for different looks- as you would your normal wardrobe.
You may even find your friends can borrow your maternity dresses. Swapping maternity dresses is fun and it means you have double the outfits to choose from, for no extra price. Remember that every mother, pregnant or not, will have maternity wear in her wardrobe- if she isn't wearing it, ask if you can! You may have a maternity cocktail dress or a designer maternity formal dress and your friends may have a suitable maternity summer barbeque dress. By swapping you get the most out of the maternity formal dresses you purchase.
Pregnant celebrities often hide their small baby bumps with flowing dresses and as they break the happy news they choose more tight fitting clothing to show off their baby bump. Remember that it is always important to be comfortable, especially when you are pregnant. To get the most out of your maternity clothing you need to spend a little more upfront, but your quality items will last; remember you will live in these clothes, for a couple of months, at least!
