Maternity Style Favorites
I recently shared a big secret over on my Instagram page. Our family is growing and we are expecting a new baby BOY in 1 week! During my last pregnancy, I shared a lot about my experience, but this time I will be sharing more after baby is born. Taking the break from social media was exactly what I needed the past 9 months, and I am so glad that I did it.
If you have been here awhile, you know my love/hate (mostly hate) relationship with maternity clothing. I try to stick with pieces that are non maternity that will also work for me postpartum. During my last pregnancy, I discovered a lot of items that fit this description and stuck with them this time around. I also finally found maternity denim that actually is comfortable and flattering, which is something I could not find last time. Below you will find some of my maternity style favorites, most of which I own multiples! I basically rotated between all of these pieces for the past 6 months for my casual wear. As far as workwear, I primarily wore scrubs to work and my regular size got me through most of my pregnancy. My favorite scrubs are FIGS and I recommend purchasing the styles with the yoga style waistband!
MATERNITY STYLE FAVORITES
Zella Maternity Leggings || These were a favorite of mine during my last pregnancy and again were my most worn item. I got my regular size! They are super sturdy and will hold up to MANY washes.
Auden Seamless Bralette || The most comfortable bralette for lounging, it has a barely there feel. I own a few of these!
SPANX Faux Leather Maternity Leggings || my favorite leggings in maternity style! Go one size up in these.
Abercrombie Maternity Jeans || Did you know that Abercrombie makes maternity style denim? I discovered these during this pregnancy and I WISH I had them last time. I bought a dark wash and black wash pair, I would recommend going up one size in the legging style. The waistband does not roll down on these and I like that they look like regular non maternity denim. Highly recommend.
Aerie Oversized Henley || I raved about these tops during my last pregnancy and here I am again to say the same thing. Size up one for maternity and wear them postpartum! They are also great for breast feeding if you are planning to feed that way postpartum.
SPANX Air-Essentials Tee || Sadly, I did not discover this top until late in pregnancy, but I loved it so much I bought another color shortly after. It is the softest, silky scuba night and more of a tunic length so it is a great non-maternity style for the bump. I bought my regular size and I think it will still fit great after pregnancy. There is currently a waitlist, but it’s worth it!
Halogen Long Sleeve Tee || Another long time favorite! I loved these tunic length tees with my last pregnancy and they served me well again. I have these in 3 colors and wear them post partum as well. Even if you are not pregnant they are a great closet staple. I own both my regular size and one size up for maternity.
Aerie Fold Over Jogger || The ultimate maternity and postpartum lounge pant. The fold over waist band is perfect for pulling over your stomach during pregnancy and they are such a comfortable option postpartum. I recommend these to every pregnant person I know! I got my regular size and they were fine for maternity.
