Pair with a black pencil skirt for a day at the office or jeans for morning errands. This top also comes in red, which would be a festive color choice for the holidays!

As far as nursing dresses go, the Charlie Nursing Dress by Momzelle is perfection. This heather grey and black striped dress is as comfy as it looks; and little details like three-quarter length sleeves, a flattering boat neck, and back half zipper add whimsy and flair.

We love My Bella Mama’s The Patient Gown in Blue Polka Dot because it is beautiful and safe for delivery; a time when moms are vulnerable and often feeling less-than-gorgeous.

Features like snaps at the shoulders and backside mean that this gown can be worn even if you have an IV or other medical equipment attached, or just after delivery for easy dressing and nursing. The convenient pockets on either side are great for storing chapstick or your cell phone as you walk and move to work through your labor. As a bonus, this pattern is reminiscent of the beautiful blue dress that Princess Kate wore home from the hospital after delivery!

My Bella Mama also offers a number of maternity wear options, and we love these comfy and cute Maternity Yoga Capri Leggings, available in 3 colors. The foldable panel makes these pants versatile and comfortable to wear during and after pregnancy; the stretchy fabric will grow as your belly grows.
