THE ILLUSION-KNOWING HOW TO DRESS YOUR BODY

THE ILLUSION-WEARING THE RIGHT PANTS:

KNOWING HOW TO DRESS YOUR BODY.

I am 6 months pregnant and love fashion. I have my own way of styling the clothing that I put on my body.

I have found that maternity clothing rarely caters to a womans specific body needs; has very few trendy and stylish selections; and the genre of clothing is over priced and hard to come by as a thrifter.

So how do you solve the problem?....you have to fit that sweet baby belly into something right?....

A few tips I've learned along the way as a MaMa of 5 and a personal stylist!...

1- Upsize your pants, blazers/jackets, and dresses.

*Doing so creates the correct fit for your growing bump; weight gain; and accents your figure with the illusion that nothing is there which helps with the decency of how materials lay on various areas of our beautiful bodies.

2-Dont over-think clothing. Wear YOUR style.

*Its easier to have a wardrobe issue to solve with something you enjoy and is your style than something you dont like and that your forcing yourself to wear.

*The pants that I am modeling are a size 20 and I am a size 12/14; they are a high-waist fit with a heavy wide-leg which I love; especially being a shortie.

3- Have fun.

*Getting dressed shouldn't be a burden nor should it have you anxious and/or discouraged.

Find colors you love; specific items you like; and make a point to enjoy something that your sporting and dress it to your liking.

Even if its in your accessories like a scarf or in your jewelry wearing.
