Tops to Invest in


www.IsabellaOliver.com for special easy pieces. These are great quality pieces that emphasize the belly rather than hide it so when you have told all your friends and your employer these are your go to pieces. I purchased the Bandeau Wrap Top ($115) and I love it. I actually got this one on sale so make sure you keep checking the site. 

 

Department Stores On-line: click right over to the sale section and you will find a lot more than what the actual store has.  Shop the items that are one size up from where you are now and don't be afraid to shop out of season -always be thinking ahead. You can pick up some great blousy tops, tunics and anything in jersey. They make everything you can think of out of the jersey/ spandex material. 

 

T-shirts / Knock About 

For causal knock about shirts you need a garment that has a mix of cotton and spandex. Gap has really well prices long and short sleeve shirts in basics and in a mix of colors. Keep in mind that added spandex is super important and you will regret it if you buy a t-shirt without it. This is why I steer clear of American Apparel T-shirts because they are 100% cotton and after one wash it they fade and lose their shape making them a waste of time. 

 

DON'T:

I know GAP maternity is easy but outside of the T-shirts with cotton/ spandex it is useless. GAP makes Preggers look like tents and almost all their shirts meet moo-moo standards. You do not have to wear that stuff and those shapeless garments that are made from basic cotton sheeting (that is right no better then your sheets)  do not look good on you. Trust me. Please know I am trying to help you here and I know the price is right but the look is all wrong even if you think you look good I am being a real friend and telling you there. That goes for Old Navy Maternity too.
