Pregnancy Diaries:  No Frump for this Bump

February 18, 2016 by mikaelamartinez 2 Comments

 Gone are the days of bows, rompers and shapeless ensembles. Times have changed, and thank God for that!

Like I mentioned before, I was never a fan of maternity wear… It was always a challenge looking for something that I felt good in.. Besides, spending for wardrobe you’d only wear for barely even 9 months isn’t exactly the smartest move. At the same time, fitting into regular clothes isn’t the comfiest thing either.

But what if there was a solution? What if there was maternity wear that you could actually use even after you’ve given birth and even better, for nursing!? Aha. Look what I found!

Aside from the Blanqi I just discovered, I also came across Elin, an Instagram based maternity line- which are inexpensive, and can be used whether pregnant or not.. Even better, they make nursing so much more convenient!

This cover up/bolero/nursing boncho is an all one thing! Notice the buttons on the sleeves – there are several ways to wear it! And guess what, it can even work as a blanket for your baby just in case.

Easily 2 looks in just one outfit.

Dressing up doesn’t have to be so complicated. Stick to basics. Mix and match and you’re all set!

      Hi @maam im not so sure as ive never used “maternity gowns” but the best would be jersey dresses that stretch 🙂 plus theyre flattering too! Maybe check the racks of Charina Sarte, Rajo Laurel, Religioso etc 🙂
