So it's getting colder I need to buy some nice maternity clothes but there all so frumpy, I always feel awful when pregnant.

Has anyone got any style inspiration? So I don't look like a walrus again 😩

I managed to pick up some stuff on Facebook so am basically living in various jeans and long sleeved top combos with converse. It's not the most stylish of rotations mind. Looking for ideas too Grin

I think it's a contradiction in terms tbh,let people don't want to spend too much on maternity clothes for obvious reasons and comfort is king - the best you can do is get good basics that you might have worn anyway. My preference for work was clingy dresses from Seraphine or H&M with obi belts above the bump and my regular leather jacket on top. Casual was whatever jeans/leggings/jumpers I could face on any given day plus jumpers nicked from DH.

I loved dressing up when I was pregnant. I wore skinny jeans with long sleeved fitted tops with a leather jacket and scarf. Also a poncho for when it was cooler. Shortish skirts with thick tights, fitted top and jacket. I had a long jersey body on dress that looked great with the same jacket. I always received compliments for looking glam.

I want to look a bit more glam this time I can't face another winter struggling with what to wear.

I've just ordered some new maternity jeans from top shop and some bits from ASOS. Will see how I get on.

The weather is so hit and miss at the moment so it makes it harder x

I wore a pair of Hush Amie joggers one size up to death when I was pregnant. I also got a lot of variarions on this kind of basic long sleeved t shirt from Happy Mama. www.happymama.co.uk/maternity-clothes/maternity-tops/maternity-pregnancy-t-shirt-top-83894.html

Winter bump dressing towards the end was mainly about black leggings, a long fitted Primark stretch vest and a giant cardigan!Grin
