I TIDY
Clothes that already tighten me: skinny pants, high waists, fitted dresses, fitted shirts and jackets… And in general, all pieces made of stiff and uncomfortable fabric.
Tops tightened at the waist: like sweaters, blouses, sweets, which will quickly turn out to be too short to fit under the stomach and... unattractive if they slip above!
High heels: if heels are not prohibited during pregnancy, weight gain leads to a natural imbalance and often fragility at the ankles, which is why we recommend heels of 4-5 cm maximum and not too thin to be very stable.
System D: Whatever the season, it's time to (re)take out all your pretty spring shirts or tunics! On the skin or over a pair of slim pants (or leggings) + under sweater or long-sleeved t-shirt if it's cold, the look is guaranteed. You can also lengthen or “blur” the silhouette with a long scarf left open, a carelessly wrapped scarf…
I KEEP
Comfortable shoes: boots, ballet flats, derbies, even pumps, with a small heel. The ideal way to combine comfort and femininity: wedge heels which ensure real stability.
Knitted clothing: sweaters, cardigans, ponchos... that you can wear until the end of the second trimester.
Light sportswear: leggings, bras, comfortable tops... While spending nine months in shapeless jogging is out of the question, these pieces will be very comfortable for relaxing at home.
System D: Now is the time to play with the masculine-feminine style, especially by borrowing your man's clothes (if he agrees). White shirt, overcoat, cardigan... Accessorize to boost your femininity.
I BUY
1 pair of comfortable shoes, wide enough because feet tend to swell: ballet flats, moccasins, derbies... It's also the time to invest in a pair of city sneakers, the best of the season. In any case, we must be able to put them on without bending down because soon we will have difficulty touching our feet!
2 bras + panties: the part of the body that changes as soon as you are pregnant is the chest. In addition to growing, the breasts become very sensitive and need comfort and support more than ever. So we don't skimp, we choose special maternity pieces, of good quality and in which we feel beautiful. The same goes for panties, designed to fit the rounded belly, and without elastics or seams that mark the skin, already weakened during pregnancy.
System D: To avoid tedious fittings, we opt for online purchasing on the many specialized sites: we select widely, we order, we try on quietly at home (we do not hesitate to seek the opinion of the future dad), and we simply send it back if it doesn't suit!
