Maternity Style Guide: Making It Work With Mostly Pre-Pregnancy Clothes + a Few Maternity Must-Haves
I am ~24 weeks along today and thought I’d share how I’ve hacked my maternity style so far with mostly pre-pregnancy/non-maternity clothes and a few must-have maternity items. This being my first pregnancy, I had no idea how much of my closet I would still be able to wear, and friends and family varied widely in how much they spent and which maternity pieces they deemed necessary. This is the guide I wish I had as a first-time preggo, and I hope it will inspire you to maximize your pre-pregnancy wardrobe or purchase pieces that you can continue wearing postpartum.

Driving Down Cost Per Wear With Matching Separates

Being More Conscious This Holiday Shopping Season
I am still learning and by no means am I perfectly green in my shopping habits, but one thing I want to say is that being more eco-conscious as a consumer doesn’t necessarily mean we have to shell out all our money for a new closet filled with ethical, sustainable brands.
I know that can be expensive, and not everyone is in a place to pay $200 for a top. Especially with the holidays coming up, I think we can focus on shopping less overall—getting as much wear out of the pieces we already have and not falling into the trap of mistaking a want for a need, even if that “must-have” piece is 50% off.
