Up Your Pregnancy Style Quotient - TIPS
Show Some Skin
For those of you who belong to the Wonderbra fan club, pregnancy offers the best chance you'll ever have to flaunt cleavage, so take advantage of this fortuitous occasion and wear scoop-neck T-shirts or sweaters.
Go Skinny
If you enjoyed wearing skinny maternity jeans before you were an expecting mama, don't be afraid to don tight-fitting pants now just because you're pregnant. Many maternity lines are now making stretchy, super-comfy (and chic!) skinny jeans that will fit and flaunt your new curves.
Choose Snug over Bulky

Reaching for bigger clothes to hide your size sounds like a good idea, but it only contributes to a bulky look. Instead, slim down your silhouette and emphasize the features that aren't expanding with snug-sleeved tops, skinnier pants, and button-down shirts or blazers (from your prepregnancy wardrobe) left unbuttoned. Try knits that stretch to fit your form -- they're sexy and feminine. If all else fails, break out a crisp men's dress shirt and pair it with leggings or jeans and a fitted T-shirt or a stylish tank top underneath. This look is the perfect mix of sexy, modern, and classic style.
Go for Color!
Don't limit yourself to black and neutral tones -- color is an essential part of the modern maternity closet. You'll feel happier when you're wearing clothes that aren't drab. But, if you're really a color-phobe (or if you're feeling budget-conscious), just throw a bright sweater around your shoulders to complement an all-black evening maternity outfit.
Get Decorative
Perk up a staid wardrobe with just a few decorative elements, such as ruffled trims or embroidered or beaded accents. Just be sure to stick with things that you'll be able to wear more than once without feeling too conspicuous.

Maternity Style 2014: This Season's Hottest Trends
Now that June is getting well underway, we thought that it was about time to start getting excited about the fashion trends set to be big later this year! So without further ado, here are our top maternity fashion trends to watch out for in 2014:
Try Some Trimmings
One of the easiest ways to add dimension and flare to an otherwise simple ensemble is to put on your favorite accessories and jewelry. Try long, dangling earrings and necklaces to de-emphasize fullness in your face. Wear a patterned scarf in your hair, put a jeweled cuff on your wrist, or carry a chic handbag. Better yet, if you're not going to be on your feet all day, throw on some fun open-toe sandals or sling-backs. Sexy Pregnancy Belly Button Rings can instantly perk up practically any outfit.
Color Blocking
Don't be afraid to color block this season. This BCBG short-sleeved boatneck color-block maternity T-Shirt and Suzi Chin sleeveless color-block maternity dress, are great pieces to add to your maternity wardrobe to get in on the trend. And the best part is, you can wear these closet additions even after baby's born -- just belt the shirt and wrap the dress a little tighter.
