FASHION RUNDOWN: MATERNITY STYLE

maternitystyle-a.jpg

With Hollywood’s baby trend going by, its only necessary to look at some of the fashions worn by these hot Mom-To-Bes (or in some of their cases, Mothers already!).

These ladies showed that not only can pregnancy be beautiful but, it can also be stylish…

Probably my favorite maternity Mom, Halle Berry shows that pregnancy can definitely be sexy. Her blue Versace dress knocked people’s socks off, and she was showed that you can still wear skinny jeans with a baby belly…

Jennifer Lopez tried to hide her belly, and she fooled some for a minute. But, soon her glow was too much to hide! Jennifer definitely isn’t afraid to show off her great legs and last did so at her baby shower in a trendy H&M jacket…

Nicole Richie, who delivered her daughter Harlow earlier this month, was the hip and alternative maternity mother. Leggings being her favorite maternity wear, she rocked very casual wear with a Chanel bag here, McQueen scarf there, and Louboutins down there. Another one of my favorites…

Garcelle Beauvias-Nilon gets extra kudos from me for looking great carrying two in her oven! Before delivering her sons Jax and Jaid, she definitely carried them with style and sophistication…

Former Total member Keisha Epps, who was said to deliver her baby in the fall glowed everything I saw her. Her maternity style shined well and made her stand out just as much as her leading man Omar.

A FEW MATERNITY FASHION TIPS:

- Empire waist is the way to go! Tunic shorts and Baby doll dresses are your best friends.

- Have fun showing off your belly with stretch materials and leggings ala Halle and Nicole. Check out body wear from Rick Owens, and American Apparel.

- Skinny jeans are available for maternity moms! Visit apeainapod for True Religion and Seven’s options.

- High heels can be safe during pregnancy, but it is recommended that you lower the heel the more your belly grows. You can be fashionable but also be smart about your body and baby!

  16. metis

  17. dadirai

    no 9 maybe Monica is tacky lol

  18. seguela

    TIANNA WHERE CAN I GET LE LIL KIM HOT GREEN OUTFIT?

  19. Gem

    Okay…I want to retract that earlier bit of sarcasm…I didn’t let the topic load…these women actually look great…it’s weird that pregnant women are by far the most stylish celebs you’ve chosen to highlight this season…But you did feature two women who never appear here: Nicole and Jennifer… If you were more open in your selections, the fashion topics would be completely different…most of the the people you choose to highlight would seem terribly tacky when contrasted against truly stylish celebs (and Nicole is that…even though she had a stylist). I wish you’d put my girl Mary-Kate Olsen up just once…everybody emulates her… Her and Kate Moss or Maggie Gyllenhaal…

  20. They all look amazing! Don’t forget J.Lo is carrying twins too! I wish yall wouldve posted her pic in the all white Versace joint! Can’t wait til she has the baby!

  21. Jennifer Lopez is gonna make a great mother, she is a good role model to her babies :) pregnant ladies are looking just great and make me wanna get pregnant too :) i hope they have great lifes with their babies :)

  22. wow they’re looking beautiful n sunny rockin the cute bellies!!

    maternity wear is waaay cute!!!

  23. Bell

    Wow they all look great especially Halle & Garcelle.

  24. irrational rationalist

    halle: the see-through shirt is NOT attractive…everythin else she wore was adorable

    jenny: not feeling the beetlejuice dress but all other outfits were cute

    everyone else: HOT!

  25. GEM… if you would be so kind to post something stylish that MK has wore.

    I know she can wear some cute shoes some time.

  26. happyface

    i really dont think halle is that great looking, only in the blue dress above and on oscar night has she looked amazing to me

    garcelle is gorgeous pregnant and non-pregant
    nicole looks much better pregnant, she actually looks really pretty with weight on her

  27. Lovely young lady 22123

    Halle looks gorgeous with her big belly and her style is AMAZING
    Garcelle looks GOOD too
    And I love Nicole’s simple classy baby look the all look GOOD.
    Makes me wanna get preg: but I wanna get married first

  28. Is a hippopotamus really a hippopotamus, or just a really cool Opotamus?

    @ Happyface

    You don’t think Halle looks good? You can’t be black then.

  29. Ama

    I think these ladies have never looked better!

  30. STACEY

    GLAD TO SEE PREGNANT WOMEN KEEP UP WITH THERE SELF TO BAD U DONT SEE THAT OFTEN WELL ESPECIALLY OUTSIDE OF HOLLYWOOD AND SOMEONE DIDNT READ THE RULES FOR COMMENTING…

  31. Leonna

    Nicole dressed her ass off while she was pregnant, but all of these women are showing just how fly soon to be mommies can be!

  32. 99 problems

    Ok if they can look this good being knocked up , I really have no excuse for my half-ass days…but I am soo glad that women can now be proud of how they look and the beauty of carrying a child ..my have we evolved from those awful Mumu’s and clown tents they used to make for pregnant women!

  33. Heard Jen Lopez had her baby yesterday….is this a rumor or is it true?

  34. T

    My girl Jenny wins hands down!!!!!!!!

  35. Don't Argue With Me It's Just An Opinion

    DAMN I’m late! Had no clue J-Lo was pregnant…

  36. VickieD

    Um I’m not trying to be mean or anything. They all look great, and yes, i guess having ababy is a wonderful blessing..but um, I never did see anything remotely attractive about having a gut stick out 5 feet from yo body. So when people talk about it being beautiful, I truly do not understand. They look bloated, and uncomfortable despite the smiles they put on for the cams. Its horrible our society makes pregnancy look appealing, because I’m sure many every day women who have had babies would strongly disagree on it being all glamour. I just hope one day when i get MARRIED and decide to start a family that my experience is not as miserable as it looks!

  37. JYGALO

    First, I love Halle’s maternity wear…when I had my oldest it was tent clothes and I almost want number 4 to rock the new styles…cause i always have a cute belly when I am preggers…

    and to #42 VICKIFIED…don’t apologize for being mean, baby, but you can always apologize for being ignorant. When you are pregnant, since you didn’t pay attention in biology…it is not a gut, it is an actual growing BABY inside your stomach that causes it to “stick out”…sometimes there are more than one in there! Imagine that!

    I am a woman…not an ordinary woman and you are so wrong…pregnancy is beautiful and wonderful and I was fierce from the moment of conception to when my boys were introduced to the world…..if you are ever BLESSED enough to be preggers…I pray that you are not like those crazy chicks that eat lettuce but embrace the wonder that is God’s creation and design.

  38. JYGALO

    technically, babies aren’t in your stomach, but ya’ll know what I meant…lol…since I mentioned biology and all…

  39. Ain't neva scared to say it

    you could look like that when you got that much money.case closed.

  40. Gem

    #29 I’m going to take that as rhetorical… It would be easier to post something she’s worn that WASN’T stylish…My fingers would fall off if I tried to post her infinitely fashion-forward and artistic ensembles… I guess I’ll say…most of the trendy items you find in lower end chains: bandage skirts, v-neck tees, footless tights, thread-like bracelets…all these things were made popular by the Olsens. Ahhh, here’s a couple of pics…just a couple to show her range…I couldn’t resist…
    http://photos.olsen-fan.n..._LG_COMBI_RECORDER-03.jpg

    http://photos.olsen-fan.n...s/2007/7th/normal_038.jpg

    But I really could go on…and on and on and on…

  41. Great post Tianna!
    Halle looks great always, but I love that you put Keisha Epps in here! She looks great in that turqoise tunic. I also think Nicole Ritchie is fly and I love the name Harlow.
    That being said, NO babies for me anytime soon! LOL

  42. SupremeDoness

    Halle Berry needs to get rid of that mop-mess wig….her other pictures are nice.

    J-Lo, Garcelle and Keisha look nice.

    Nicole Richie’s ugly but she dresses well pregrent.

  43. hood_shit

    How happy am I for Halle Berry!

    I love Keisha Epps…. Total was the shit! Sup wit that reunion?

  44. Anonymiss

    Hopefully Nicole Richie will keep the baby weight.

  45. SweetThang729

    Let’s just say Halle’s doing it the most out there…I forgot about Keish and Garcelle but all ladies were doing it…something about J.LO I don’t like so i won’t comment on her ass

  46. Contentandhappy

    garcelle has such a genuine smile love her!

    nicole in the last pic looks really mature and her african side shows more there….strange to me she is not as white looking there as she usually looks.
    She looks mature like a 25 year old married mother and wife in that dress instead of like a little girl like she usally does.

    Everyone on here looks nice and exactly how preggers should look – fab not frumpy!
