Chic Maternity Wear

Expand a maternity wardrobe with a stylish silk shift.

Fashion expert Denise Scher provides moms-to-be with pointers on how to dress for a special occasion during various phases of pregnancy.

• Say goodbye to frumpy clothes! Today's looks includes staying up with the latest trends and looking fashionable, which translates into higher self-esteem.
  
  
• Look for fabrics that are cool, comfortable, lightweight and have some stretch.
  
  
• If on a limited budget, look for something to spark up the wardrobe such as a colorful jacket, pants or a shawl--anything with some color.

Dressing Up

A silk shift (a loosely fitting dress that hangs straight from the shoulder; a chemise) with a shawl and some low-heeled shoes or flats is quite fashionable.

At Work

Pants are a great alternative at work, allowing comfort and freedom. Keep in mind that wool and silk are year-round fabrics, and bright colors work wonderfully.

Casual

Loose-fitting denim and linen aren't the only choices out there. Go with prints, not solids. A stretch-fabric print jacket and matching pants with a solid shirt make a great outfit. Sandals complete the outfit.
