Congratulations to all people who are reading this article! I have worked in fashion magazines for some time, I was excited on the prospect of getting a whole new wardrobe when I found out I was pregnant. Unfortunately, finding maternity fashion I liked wasn't easy whatsoever. Put together with the challenge of finding affordable maternity clothes, I thought I'd either have to wear a dress that looked like a huge tent or turn to wearing tops halfway up  my big belly! Australian women are simply as stylish since the women in Europe but our options here seem so much more limited. So, here are a couple style tips which will keep you looking and feeling cool in summer and where you can shop for stylish maternity clothing that does not cost a year's  valuation on nappies!

Hiding your belly when you're not yet ready to tell the entire world

I found that this would be a major issue, especially at the job as there was this fear that soon everyone would observe that either I'd been enjoying my food too  much recently or that I'd indeed started growing a bump. And, you do not need your employer to start out making plans for the future which do not include you. I also found that I wasn't keen permit everyone know that I used to be pregnant until I'd had the large 12 week scan as I'd made the error of telling a couple of people early last time and then miscarried.

So, during this period, I'd definitely recommend dresses with empire lines in floaty, cotton fabrics which don't cling to your shape so jersey fabrics are definitely  out at this point over time. Tunic-style or A-line style dresses will also be good although if this isn't normally your style, you'll probably have  friends/colleagues wondering "Is he or s isn't she...?". In terms of tops, I found I needed a few non-fitted shirts that have been perfect for this period - shirts using a print are better yet as they tend to distract a person's  eye. Bottoms are the difficult bit, specifically for second pregnancies onwards as you tend to show much earlier. However, you may get away with beginning to wear maternity jeans or pants in the event you wear longer tops that go over up the belly band. Similarly, with maternity skirts.

Its time to celebrate and flaunt your bump!

There still is apparently so much maternity clothing available which does pregnant women a disservice. After approximately 3-4 months, you will want to show off your voluptuous curves, to not hide under a big sack. Maternity T-shirt dresses and empire line dresses especially, hug your bust area to offer you shape. Empire line dresses are extremely fashionable at the moment, you could wear them even when you're no longer  pregnant, stretching your hard earned dollars even further.

Summer maternity clothes

Australian summers are actually hot and buying maternity clothes online from the northern hemisphere just does not work properly as their seasons would be the opposite of ours. Despite the heat, wearing strapless maternity dresses with ruching down the sides or T-shirt  dresses. There are some great maternity dress styles on the market at the moment for women that are pregnant such as a halter neck maxi dress  which wouldn't watch out place on the catwalk. Also, do not be afraid to show off your legs - you are able to still wear mini skirts and shorts to  help keep cool. And when it got too hot, I'd pop in my maternity swimmers and visit the pool or beach for a swim. I'd definitely recommend buying some maternity swimwear, as a few of the stares can make you feel a little uncomfortable  if you wear your usual bikini. Maternity swimwear which has ruching down the sides enable you to move easily rather than feel constricted over the belly as you get larger. Plus, any occasion during summer australia wide wouldn't be the same without spending lazy days at the pool.

Breathable fabrics such as cotton, bamboo and viscose/rayon work best for maternity wear, specifically in summer. Your body temperature will already be higher while you're pregnant, so these fabrics can help keep you cool. All of them are from natural sources plus bamboo gets the added benefit of being "eco-friendly maternity wear". Jersey fabrics enable you to move and grow in comfort and therefore are great for the 2nd and 3rd trimesters.

Maternity wear it doesn't break the bank: bargain maternity clothes

womens fashion online - Finding cheap maternity clothes australia wide was near impossible when I started looking. All things considered, I was only planning to wear this clothing for for the most part 9 months, or possibly longer if I was to have another  child (at the same time of year again). Furthermore, i wasn't a pregnant celebrity for whom price was no object. I think this is how most women feel, yet we still want to feel gorgeous at this time in our lives as we indeed should. So, I looked around for maternity sales in the shops but found it was for your wrong season - the summer season just gone! This wasn't going to help at all. I also looked for second-hand maternity clothes on eBay but found there was little choice there and was back to  square one.

My best tip to find affordable maternity wear in Australia is to look for maternity clothes on the web and do a local  Internet search for the words "maternity sale" so that the clothes match our summertime. Maternity wear shops tend to be scattered all over the place and you will be getting hot and bothered going from shop to shop,  trying on clothes. Shop from your comfort of your own home or even an internet cafe having a lovely cool drink by your side. You'll find some great options show up.
