Congrats to Beverley Mitchell on her pregnancy! She looks glowing in this picture from her baby shower. We love how she paired a bright dress with a contrasting bright necklace. It has inspired us to pair our Debbi O Lace Dress with a chunky turquoise necklace for the perfect shower look. Keep the shoes and nails neutral and you will have a polished look from head to toe.

Bust The Maternity Blues With A Trip To The Gym

Kim Kardashian Pregnant

 

Mom to be in the spotlight, Kim Kardashian, is photographed nearly daily in her workout gear. Keeping up with Kim might be quite a challenge, but studies show even small amounts of low impact exercise can be extremely beneficial during pregnancy.  The American Pregancy Association recommends keeping your heart rate under 140 beats per minute and avoid overheating, especially in your first trimester. Don’t be afraid to hit the ground running!

Splendid Pocket Top

 

We couldn’t resist this top from Splendid. Handpicked by us because of its versatility during and after pregnancy. We also love how can be worn many different ways. Wear the pocket top with leggings and your favorite flats to run errands or on the weekends for a casual look. Pair it with jeans and you’re set for almost anything: lunch, dinner, and everything in-between.  Transition this shirt into spring, after baby, or wear it on vacation now. We think it looks great with white pants. How would you wear this top?

Molly Ades Maternity/Nursing Poncho

Can stylish and nursing be in the same sentence? Yes! With the Molly Ades Maternity/ Nursing Portable Poncho you have a plethora of options. Let’s count the ways: 1. Wear it during your pregnancy and layer it over your bump. Continue to use it while your nursing. 2. Dress it up or down. Add some heels and your favorite jeans or jeggings for a polished dinner look. Wear with flats or your yoga pants for an easy, casual look. 3. Use it as a nursing cover. With Molly Ades’ unique design, this poncho folds-up into its own little pouch. Throw it in your diaper bag or purse and use it on the go for quick and easy nursing access.
