How these looks can be adopted in budget?Well! Pregnancy is all about living those 40 weeks in the most comfortable way. It's the time when you no longer have to carry a bulky Suit, a skinny jeans or another pair of nine inch heels.
True that Bollywood maternity fashion is admirable, however we can always draw inspiration and not forget to feel comfy first place.
When going for parties or social gatherings, one can wear a piece of maxi or a gown to stay sassy yet comfortable.
When heading for occasions or ceremonies, one can go for lightly detailed ethnic outfits paired with loose fitted palazzo pants.
When going for casual dinner and movie dates, stay in the most relaxed pants and tops paired with shrugs or jackets you already have.
Maternity photoshoots can be done wearing shirts, tunics, flowy gowns etc. All you can do is set your Tiara right and pose with that bump of yours.
One thing in common about celebrity style maternity looks is that most of them are seen in minimal make-up and minimal accessories too.
Most of them aren't carrying heavy bun hairdo's or hair accessories, instead simply open hair with side or centre partition, mild curls or tied up plait/high buns.
Heels are a no-no when you're pregnant, however how can we say no to these celebrities who are always high on style no matter what!
Are you expecting?
Time to abandon all those loose fitted tees, husband's shirts and those kurtas you gave to the tailor to loosen a bit and make room for some nice maternity wear because the divas from Bollywood have given us not just fashion, but maternity goals.
Pregnancy is no more about limited choices about outfits. The celebrities have shown us enough how we can look stylish with comfortable fabrics.
