Maintain Your Original Sense of Style: As your belly begins to bulge, take stock of the five items in your wardrobe that you could not live without. These items should include a suit, one pair of dressy pants, and a dress. Then, look for similar items in maternity sizes. Maintaining your signature look throughout pregnancy will keep you looking naturally beautiful.
Wear Your Normal Clothes as Long as Possible: While the idea of buying a whole new wardrobe may seem exciting during your first trimester, you should try to wear your pre-pregnancy clothes as long as possible. You will not begin to grow really large until your second trimester, and any maternity outfits you bought during your first trimester may not fit you then. If you don't feel comfortable wearing your normal clothes, buy a few items in a size or two larger than you would normally wear them, saving your real maternity purchases for the second and third trimesters.
Don't Be Afraid to Reveal Some Skin and Show Off Your Belly: Low-cut shirts tend to enhance your new cleavage and make you look much sexier during pregnancy. You may also want to try a skirt that falls above the knee, as this cut offsets the belly and flatters pregnant women. In addition, don't be afraid to try a snug fit in your maternity dresses and blouses. A sleek fit flatters the belly and makes you look much smaller than the tent-style maternity shirts of past years.
Spend Extra Time on Your Hair and Make-up: If your growing body is a depressing sight, try paying a little more attention to your hair and face. Besides extra pounds, pregnancy hormones also offer the benefits of glowing skin and lustrous hair. Take advantage of these new features while pregnant to keep yourself looking fashionable and beautiful.
