I have a chance to go to Buckingham Palace as a guest of someone and would like to do so. However, I will be 6 months pregnant by then. I have only worn jogging bottoms for the last 5 months and am thinking this won't be the right look. Where can I buy some smart, stylish, maternity clothes to look good on the day and give myself a boost after being ill for the last 3-4 weeks? Maybe a hat too.

Thanks. worrying what you say about not being able to fit into Formes second time round but I'll risk the humiliation. Do you think you could ever wear any of these clothes once you stopped being pregnant or this is just a one off (worth spending the money though). Come to think of it, with my first pregnancy I never really lost the tummy anyway (so started 2nd time round looking around 3 months preg from the beginning). If my good resolutions slip this time too I guess I will be able to go on wearing these lovely maternity clothes after pregnancy

wait though

i am 24 weeks and still fit happily into pre preg clothes, well not happily but i have a couple of dresses that still look great and I am still wearing non maternity trousers - despite this being 3rd baby - my bump is very high though so hipstery skirts and trousers are absolutely fine.

help, what colour is teal? Very tempted by Kaftan lace top in Hommebody but suspect it won't make me look like the lady in teh picture.

teal is like a dark turquoise, like the colour of a peacock feather
