Youre Pregnant! Your body is constantly growing and changing, and your fast running out of clothes that fit around your new bump.

You know, its time for some new maternity wear but you still want to look stylish and trendy.

Dont worry, you do not need to wear the hideously old-fashioned tent style fashions that were once associated with maternity wear.

There is now a fantastic range of stylish and fashionable maternity clothing available in a wide range of colours and flattering styles for all body shapes and sizes.

For the first few months of your pregnancy you will probably be able to wear most of your usual clothing. Especially those select few items you love when you have put on an extra kilo or two.

Then will come the awkward in-between stage, when you are too big for your normal clothes but not quite big enough for your stunning new maternity outfits.

Great Ideas for the In-between Stage

* Pants and Skirts with elastic waists.

* Hipster jeans or pants that sit below your new belly.

* Loose fitting pants with a drawstring waist.

* Dresses or skirts in a stretchy fabric to accommodate your new bump.

* To continue wearing your pre-pregnancy jeans thread an elastic hair tie through the button hole and loop each end over the button.

* Tummy Bands and Belly Belts are great at this stage.

* Long line t-shirts and singlets worn in layers look great and cover up well.

This Summer Maternity designers are following mainstream fashion with tops, dresses and skirts in lovely floaty fabrics and gorgeous feminine prints.

You will also find fabulous fashion staples in lovely maternity styles including crisp linen shirts, classic capri pants and chic jackets.

Add your own individual style and taste to outfits with colourful scarves, necklaces, beads, earrings and trendy comfortable shoes.
