How Do I Get Pregnant

Dressing for the office is easy during your first trimester. A lot of your clothes will still fit, even if they are a little tight. Your second trimester is a little more difficult. Your belly has begun to grow to the point many of your outfits no longer fit comfortably. By the seventh month, you might have trouble seeing your feet much less fitting into the sleek and trim professional attire you once wore. Your body is changing quickly and if you’d like to keep your job, your wardrobe may need to undergo a few changes, too.

Thankfully, you can dress comfortably while maintaining your professional image throughout your third trimester. It just requires a little savvy wardrobe planning. In this article, you’ll learn tips for looking great at the office during your last three months of pregnancy.

Reintroduce Suits To Your Daily Attire

Corporate America has taken on much more of a business casual air. Companies in every industry have encouraged their employees to move their suits to the back of their closets. Retiring your suits in favor of more casual wear has a lot of perks when you’re not pregnant. You can mix and match easily while allowing your creativity to roam (within reason).

Your third trimester is a different story. Your growing body just won’t look the same in your existing outfits. Now’s the time to introduce a few dark maternity suits back into your wardrobe. Not only are they easy to accessorize, but they’ll flatter your body with a refined and professional look.

Simple Skirts and Pants

Every mom-to-be should own two or three pairs of black pants. They can match practically any blouse and jacket, and they’ll fit seamlessly with nearly all shoe types. Wear them with a t-shirt or a blazer, boots or sandals, socks or no socks. You’ll have plenty on your mind during the last three months of your pregnancy. Black maternity pants will ease the burden of choosing professional clothes for the office each day.

Like black pants, simple straight skirt can give you a slimming look. They’re also easy to mix, match, and accessorize. For example, a dark skirt and earth-toned blazer can blend perfectly with each other while the blazer can also be worn with your black pants.

Accessorize

Let your dark suits, pants, and skirts - along with a smattering of colorful blouses - form the foundation of your maternity clothes. Use refined necklaces, earrings, and scarves to add a dash of sparkle to your image. The perfect earrings can inject an air of sophistication or an air of whimsy (depending on the earrings), while a colorful scarf will give your professional attire a bit of zest.

Dressing appropriately for the office during your third trimester doesn’t have to be complicated. Making a few smart maternity wear choices will have you looking great, feeling comfortable, and spending less time worrying about both.
