Dressed for the Occasion: Maternity Dresses from ASOS.com

Posted on by Claire

We’ve been invited to a wedding on Saturday 21st July… my due date is just 6 days after said-wedding. Whether we even make it to the 21st July without Baby Boy arriving is actually a bet in itself!

But this set aside, I thought I’d have a look at some Maternity ‘Occasion’ dresses anyway. I headed to all the usual Maternity stockists online and came to ASOS.com last, but by no means least. I was quite honestly shocked at the full range of smart to casual that they had on there! Wish I’d visited earlier in my pregnancy now!

Anyway, here are my favourites… These dresses all scream elegance, but also look really very comfortable. I’m sure you could also get away with most of them post-pregnancy too!

ASOS Maternity Grecian Maxi Dress With Side Split – £35.00
ASOS Maternity Exclusive Dress With Scallop Sleeve – £45.00
ASOS Maternity Exclusive Dress With Embellishment And Fluted Sleeves – £50.00
ASOS Maternity Midi Dress With Lace Detail – £50.00
ASOS Maternity Katie Lace Dress – £45.00
ASOS Maternity Midi Dress In Lace – WAS £55.00/NOW £33.00

I couldn’t find any Maternity clothing today, so I bought vintage Ray Ban’s instead.

I have been after these sunglasses for AGES. I absolutely love them. So iconic but classic at the same time. I have a small(ish) face, so find glasses/sunglasses difficult to fit – and even more difficult to ensure they don’t slip off when bending my head down.

I’m really struggling to find Maternity clothing, that is fashionable and comfortable, without a hefty pricetag – oh and to fit a petite 5 footer! So I thought, ‘sod it’, I’ll treat myself to those sunglasses! So I did 🙂

This pair are an authentic Vintage pair – with gold frame and green/grey lens. Very very very much looking forward to them arriving. Will post more pic’s when they do.

What are your favourite sunnies, and why?

New Look: Maternity collection re-launch!

Posted on by Claire

High Street favourites, New Look, have just re-launched their Maternity range with a bang! They’ve created a dedicated section on their site to shop and explore – with styling and fit guides, as well as how to dress like celebrity-mothers-to-be.

New Look are also offering yummy mummy favourite brands exclusively online – check out Mamalicious Maternity and Heavenly Bump Maternity.

Along with the site relaunch there are some really nice Spring/Summer pieces available. It’s also worth noting that their Jeans range come in a variety of sizes and leg lengths! 34″, 32″, 30″ and 28″ – which is absolutely brilliant considering I’m a petite mum-to-be. This is the first retailer that I’ve so far seen offering a variety of leg lengths – so kudos to New Look!
