Fall is the best because you get to go shopping for cute new jeans. Check out some of our favorite maternity denim this season!

If you’re looking for comfort and style then you don’t have to look any further than the JBrand Maternity Legging. These super soft and stretchy denim maternity leggings are the perfect transition piece. Their lightweight material is ideal for fall. Wear them with a flat in warmer temperatures and transition them into winter by pairing with boots.

You might not have heard of the hot new denim brand DL1961, but trust us when we say that you will love them. Their stretchy over-the-belly band is super comfortable and will guarantee that your jeans stay in place. You’ll also their 4-way stretch denim that provides comfort and is universally flattering.

Ask most women who their favorite denim designer is and they’ll say Paige. The same goes for maternity. Paige has perfected their maternity denim so that whether you’re looking for a skinny maternity jean or a bootcut maternity jean you’ll be sure to find a pair that suits your every need. Try the Paige Union Skyline Jean. The under the belly fit is perfect for the beginning of your pregnancy, but so comfortable that you’ll be wearing them till the end.

In the season finale of Bethenny Getting Married the whole gang takes a trip to Montauk. What does Bethenny decide to wear when she’s having a nice relaxing day by the water? None other than one of our bestselling maternity pieces, the NOM Mabel Eyelet Tunic. Even though Bethenny had already given birth to gorgeous baby Bryn she still looked fantastic in this maternity tunic. The flowy body helped hide her barely there postpartum bump. She looked amazing wearing it as a beach cover up, but you can also throw it on with leggings or jeans and have a super stylish outfit. Thanks for supporting NOM Bethenny!

The Bobble Water Bottle is the best way to sip your water this summer in style. This water bottle is perfect for pregnant women because the carbon filter removes chlorine and other contaminants from the water.
