Babes n Bumps!

With the announcement of a new member of the Royal family on the way, I thought it apt to write about how our much loved celebrities manage to look so good throughout their pregnancies.



Frumpy maternity wear - a big no no!



 Even with all the morning sickness, as a pregnant woman it’s vital to look and feel your best. Gone are the days of frumpy frocks and hiding your bump. Thanks to our celebrity mums, maternity fashion has revolutionised for the better. Being pregnant is not a time to sit at home and shy away from the world. Get kitted out and show off your bump to the world in style.

DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT DRESSING DOWN!

This year has seen a new wave of celebrity pregnancies. At the moment it seems as if everywhere you turn there’s another announcement. With Kate Middleton being the latest A-Lister, we are seeing a boom in those yummy celeb mummies! Included in the list are Drew Barrymore, Reese Witherspoon, Megan Fox, Shakira, Coleen Rooney, Fearne Cotton, Lily Allen, Peaches Geldof and Jessica Simpson – just to name a few! Each one has her own style and manages to keep looking great for the full nine months.

 

And the secret to this is? Don’t stop the fashion because you’re pregnant – incorporate your bump into your current wardrobe to look, feel and be on trend. The right clothes will highlight that glow that only a pregnancy brings out. Fashion and pregnancy are all one in these days of high fashion so go out with confidence, style and high glamour.

Whether you’re at work, going out for the night or just lunching with the ladies, make sure you take a little inspiration from our celebrity mummies before you choose what to wear. If you're expecting a new arrival in 2013 make sure you join the growing trend of super stylish new mummies!

GO MILITARY THIS WINTER!

A little inspiration can go a long way in your wardrobe. You might be feeling a little unimaginative, then BOOM: you see a celebrity's picture in a magazine and ideas begin to flourish! This is the great thing about fashion, it is all your own! Take a season's new trend and put your own personal stamp on it! Individuality and creativity are the key ingredients to a fierce looking fashionista!

This season, khaki is the word on the tip of everybody's tongue! It's all about the urban MILITARY look!

Forget dainty. It's about being daring and edgy. And nothing says edgy quite like knee high boots or ankle grazing, army boots.


Take a pair of ordinary jeans. How can you possibly military-esque them up?! Easy peasy! From everyday denim, to grunge-style skinnies there is no end to the possibilities that your trusty old pair of jeans have! Let's start with your feet...experiment a little! Scrap your safe dollies, why not try something a little more sky high? Studded heels are everywhere, with their chunky heels you can pop them on day or night!

The fashion world is LOVING embellished studs.

 

 

Studded coats,studded tops, studded jeans, you name it, we've got it! And you know

what, it doesn't even stop there! It's all about the DETAIL: get fashion tough and add statement

studded jewellery and accessories and go full force! You can never out-stud yourself...

 

The refreshing thing about the military style is that not everything must be figure hugging! Out with the skin-tight, and in with the casually fitting tees, chunky jumpers and the oversized jackets. p.s.this Winter, your staple diet must include a cosy coat. There's nothing quite like fighting those winter blues, and doing it in style!

Bralets Galore

This season has seen the rise of the bralet, boob tube and crop top in a big way and with the signs of an indian summer on the way there is still plenty of time to get the look just right. The beautiful thing about the bralet is that it can be teamed with just about anything to instantly transform your outfit. Not all of us ladies feel body confident enough to bare all but luckily this season's trends include high waisted trousers, shorts and skirts meaning you can pull off that bralet with confidence and ease.

Get Festival Ready

With summer here and the festival season fast approaching its is not necessary to sacrifice style for practicality. A little help in nailing the festival chic look is at hand to make sure you are comfortable, cool and bang on trend!

The reliable denim hotpant will never fail to let you down. Trendy, sext and comfy they are a staple for evry girl's festival wardrobe. Team with a cropped loose fitting t-shirt, such are the Superdry JPN  to offset the fitted shorts. To finish off the look get yourself a pair of stylish oversized sunglasses, (the Lipsy floral print sunglasses are a personal favourite),and large slouch bag such as the Paul's Boutique Gracie Blossom bag to keep all of your essential items. Now you have the the perfect festival ensemble!

The Only Was Is......Hybrid!

I cannot rave enough about Hybrid and it seems neither can the stars of The Only Way Is Essex. Check out TOWIE celebs Lucy Mecklenburgh,  Lauren Goodger and Sam Faiers keeping on trend and looking magnificent in their Hybrid dresses.

Quontum hits Celeb-Ville!

Quontum is a wonderful brand of dresses that hug and mould your body to make you feel like a gorgeous siren.I like Quotum because not only do they have every type of dress under the sun from one shoulder to strap back, bandeau, floor length to high shine or classic black, they pull you in and give you such a lovely shape you can't help but feel sexy.

Quontum dresses really have taken us by storm and can be seen on celebrities all over! Below TOWIE girls Lucy Mecklenburgh, Jess Wright and Lauren Pope can be seen sporting Quontum.

 But it doesn't stop there. Check out The Saturdays wearing the signature neon  Quontum dresses.

Celebs Sport Paul's Boutique

It is no secret that I love Paul's Boutique and  so it pleases me to see a couple of celebs proudly sporting PB bags.

Amelia Lily, one of the 2011 X Factor finalists, can be seen here with the pink diamante Molly bag from last years collection. This bag has been so so popular and is now available as the Molly diamante star in black. These glam bags are limited edition and work for any look.


In addition you can see Stacey Soloman with the casual chic varsity Paul's Boutique bag. This one I love because it is so practical but doesn't sacrifice on fashion. Let's be honest we all want to have a stylish bag adorning our shoulder but that shouldn't mean no space or practicality whatsoever! The Varsity range by PB is an on trend, casual bag that works for a shopping day out with the girls, a  lunch date or a trip to the supermarket!
