EXPECTING WITH STYLE


Some women say that the nine months of their pregnancy were the most beautiful of their lives, other would not agree so much with this statement. Giving life is surely one of the most extraordinary miracles, but it brings lot of changes on a woman body, and the style is affected by this metamorphosis.

The easiest decision would be going out with a pyjama or a sport suit for all the 270 days, but every woman lives “stylish” moments, when she wants to feel good with herself and other people (apart from hormonal changes).

This innate need has a prompt answer: maternity clothes!
The problem is that maternity or tailored-made clothes are not always affordable and furthermore spending money for dresses which are worn only for a short period could be seen as a waste (even if sometimes one or two purchases always cheer up a woman).

For this reason every blog for moms-to-be gives different solutions: buy online, reuse old clothes with some adjustments (adding a piece of elastic to the jeans) or borrow clothes from some new-moms.

Many solutions are available, but what should always be available in the wardrobe of a future mum during autumn, winter and a part of spring are tights and leggings, which could be very cheap online.
Maternity leggings and tights have a resistant and shaped structure, that “hugs” the belly in a delicate way, keeping it warm also during the coldest days. They often have flat seams so as not to leave signs and a support function to stimulate the blood flow and avoid that tingles which are so in love with pregnant women.

There could be periods in these 9 months, when you don’t feel so “feminine”. For this reason our latest article is about making you feel trendier and, why not, also sexy through some style choices combined with leggings and tights.
For every outfit we will have an inspiring figure, i.e. some famous people whose elegance also during the pregnancy period nourishes our envy (the beautiful Blake Lively is on the top list of enviable mom-to-be).

Ladder Resist Tights

  


Ladder resist tights are called in this way because their structure reduces the possibility that little holes becomes slashes along half-leg.

Besides the debate about “skin tights yes”/”skin tights no”, it is a truth universally acknowledge that a pair of 20/40 den tights are useful for mid-season, when temperatures are not so cold to wrap up, but also not so warm, above all when protection must be "doubled".

With these tights outfit options are many:
  • Tight dress for those who don’t have any problem in showing the belly and have a slim silhouette
  • Wide dress (not too much, so as not to seem “larger”)  for those who want to “blend in”.

The choice of the dress depends on your personal style: if you are a sporty woman you could wear something like this striped dress, with a long coat or a wool cardigan and a pair of boots.

In case you should dress more elegantly you could opt for a light empire line dress with a pair of low or high heels boots. These dresses could fit also “after”, with, for example, an high waist belt.

Our inspiring celebrity is the always-elegant princess Kate Middelton, beautiful in this light pink dress and beige heels.

Opaque tights





Those who usually don’t wear skin tights could opt for opaque ones, perfect either for the day or for the night.
The "impeccable" outfit does not exist, it depends on your personal taste. If you opt for a darker 60 den pair, you could wear a colourful dress, or, if you like the “total black” look, also a tone-on-tone choice.

Heels: yes or not? It depends on you. If you are able to wear heels during pregnancy without feeling you back creaking at every step, you could choose a pair of décolleté, but that doesn’t mean that low boots couldn’t be elegant too.

Attesa Maternity

Inspiring icons are princess Sofia of Sweden, who wears opaque tights with a patterned dress, a short black coat and low boots (I told you they could fit 😉), and the actress Zooey Deschanel in a red sleeveless  wide dress, which could be combined with a short black sweater.

Leggings





Not only tights, but also leggings are comfortable and could fit every occasion.
For casual outfits, leggings could be worn with a maxi-sweater and a pair of Dr. Martens or with a country style blouse.

Leggings are versatile and could be combined also with an elegant outfit: the maxi-sweater becomes a fleece beige dress, while the checked shirt could be replaced with a long white blouse, with or without trims and with a coloured long necklace. 
Also these outfits could be worn “after”, with, for example, little changes by your trustful tailor (any excuse to learn to sew!)

The inspiring figure for this outfit is the italian fashion blogger Elisabetta Bertolini, who wears a soft coat and low shoes with glitter, a mix of casual and elegant.

For those who love warm clothes, but who don’t want to give up on style the solution is given by:

Cotton Knitted Tights



These tights are made of Cotton, ideal for the winter days and nights and have a chevron patterned knitted along the leg. They are perfect to be combined with a grey tone-on-tone sweater and a pair of boots. 
In this case you could opt also for a pair of knitted over the knee socks on skin tights.

If you don't like tone-on-tone looks, you could choose also a chic pink dress…

H&M

…or a mismatched outfit: black skirt with a white blouse.

The tip we give at the end of our articles is always the same: be yourself, it does not matter if your body is changing, keep your everyday style: if you love tight dress, wear them! If you like colours, give light to dark winter days!


And as always: take some inspiration and have fun! 😁
