My Favorite Maternity Look and a Giveaway!

When I was pregnant with Callum, I remember how difficult it was to make the move from my usual jeans to my maternity ones. It was as if I was in denial about my softer midsection. This time around, I whipped out those bad boys right away. After all, it is all about comfort when you're pregnant. You already have to deal with sore everything, so why would you purposely make yourself even more uncomfortable with tighter pants?

Now comes the tricky part: finding comfortable maternity clothes that don't make you look like a sack of potatoes. It is more difficult than ever to feel good about yourself when you're pregnant. You are working with an ever-growing stomach, while dealing with a host of not-so-hot pregnancy symptoms. So, clothes that make you feel good about yourself are so important. After all, when you look good, you feel good.

When a friend pointed me in the direction of PinkBlush maternity, I couldn't have been happier. Their maternity clothes are not only comfortable, but also fit well, are super cute, and would work well for those postpartum months and nursing. I was so thrilled when they reached out about collaborating on a post. The second I received this maternity dress in the mail, I tried it on and couldn't have felt better. It was so, so comfortable. It can easily be dressed up or down. The material is also super breathable, which is so necessary since I'm hot 100% percent of the time these days. Plus, it's just flattering. I would seriously wear it every day if I could. It's going to be great for nursing once our little onec is here, too.

Now the best part: PinkBlush has given me a $75 gift card to give to one of you, whether or expecting or not. Find yourself a cute maternity dress for those holiday family photos, a cozy sweater to wear to work, or a comfy skirt to wear with a loose top. Not expecting? You can still enter this giveaway! PinkBlush also has a ton of non maternity clothing, too. I've shared some of my favorites below. Scroll down to enter the giveaway. Good luck!

Special shout out to my husband and Callum who took these photos! Yes, Callum took the first photo below. I could hardly believe he actually got a good shot. :)

  1. The most flattering jeans I've ever owned were maternity. Paired with this adorable fitted black shirt with a jeweled collar, I always felt like a million bucks.

  4. You look gorgeous! I don't have a go-to maternity outfit because it's been years since I was pregnant. But my guess would be cozy jeans and a t shirt.

  5. Congratulations on expecting! I am due with our second bundle of joy the end of march! This time around I will be mostly in maternity clothes during the colder months, rather than summer. I've loved pairing leggings with cute tunics and oversized sweaters for a perfect fall look!
