Women knit dresses Soft jersey Sara dress

2 people recommended this item

Description

A comfortable, versatile empire waist knit dress is a four-season pregnancy must-have. Buy this up a size or two from your regular size (I went with an XL for maximum growth potential!) and it'll work for all nine months. A dress like this can be dressed down with flats and leggings, or up with a wide belt above your bump, a big scarf (cute and bump-hiding) or a chunky necklace. Layer long-sleeved tees underneath or a cropped cardigan over the top.

RUCHED V-NECK > in Organic Cotton | parkvogel

First to recommend

Description

Ah, the anti-maternity maternity tee. The ruching means lots of room for your belly to grow, but also means your top FITS at all stages of pregnancy. The extra length is key as your third trimester starts -- no Winnie-the-Pooh belly baring required. And because it's Park Vogel, it is soft, stretchy and very, very high quality.

Liz Lange Maternity Leggings - Ebony

First to recommend

Description

Buy at least two pairs of these -- seriously. They extend any dress, tunic or giant sweater into a warm, cozy, belly hugging outfit. These come up and over your belly and give you lots of room to move. It's tempting to sleep in one pair, get up, toss on a second pair with a babydoll dress and head to work.

Ingrid & Isabel Everywear Pant

First to recommend

Description

These are wear-everywhere pants -- seriously. They work for the gym, going out, work (under a dress or tunic), weekends, everything. The giant waistband is so perfect for the third trimester -- some days you feel like having a comfy knit band over the belly, some days, you don't. These pants work on both of those days.

Babystyle maternity 3/4 Sleeve Side-Shirred Dress

First to recommend

Description

Get this dress in black at the beginning of your second trimester, and pair with sheer hose and black heels -- instant sexy. Couldn't have survived the holiday party season without it. It works because of the gorgeous optical illusion -- from the front and back, you're in a slim-fitting calf-length knit dress. From the side -- instant baby!

Description

Great flats, right? Lovely Friday shoes -- sufficiently structured to pair with pants or skirts, but soft and distressed and elegant. I love the charcoal and the conservative orangey-red. And best of all -- they are available for a great price and support an even better cause. From the site: "Soul of Africa employs previously untrained and unskilled women to hand stitch shoes with all profits helping AIDS affected orphans in Kwan Zulu Natal Durban, South Africa."

I've just returned from Buenos Aires, and PRUNE was right up there with Iguazu Falls on my list of favorite sites. These bags are 100% leather, handmade in Argentina of Argentinean leather, and 100% gorgeous. The prices CANNOT be beat -- $150 for this stunner, for example. (via PRUNE)

This is a beautiful, classic iPhone case for the lucky ladies on your list. It's small and sleek enough that you won't feel bad about using it -- it really doesn't take up much room in your bag. I love the kelly green leather version.

Women's Striped Scoop-Neck Tee

Recommended for a facebook user who wants a striped tee shirt, with thick stripes that's purple. I have searched far and wide for this to no avail., using I Want on Facebook.

Description

This is a cutey from Old Navy -- and on sale for $10!! I'm a sucker for scoop neck long sleeved tees -- I think I folded 12 last night while doing laundry. They are dressy enough to wear with skirts and look super-cute under short-sleeve sweaters, tees and sleeveless dresses.

Survival pieces for six months (yes, it's more like 10, but your belly isn't in play for the whole time!) that can seem very long
