Dressing fashionable while pregnant can be quite tricky. When I was pregnant with Bubba, I felt like nothing caught my eye and when it did, it wasn't comfortable and I hated how I looked in it.
So that my friends, is why I'm bringing you a mini series for the next few weeks titled...
Each week I will be featuring different websites and companies and putting looks together for the mamas-to-be! A lot of being comfortable when pregnant is very mental; when you look better, you feel better. When I was pregnant with Bubba, I slummed around in t-shirts and sweatpants (which is fine sometimes) but the days I dressed up and looked my best, I felt my best.
This week, it's all about the tatas!
In everything I've ever read, they've advised pregnant women stay away from underwire bras once their belly really starts to pop. Unfortunately for me, I seem to gain a lot of weight in that area if you know what I mean. Finding a supportive bra can be quite tricky, especially one that is in my budget given that they won't be this size forever.
When I found TOMGirl Apparel on Etsy, I couldn't wait to try their bra!
Here's a little background on the company and their products:
"After years of frustration with uncomfortable bras, poor fit, and lack of support, I set out on a personal mission to create a bra that is both comfortable and flattering. Realizing that very few brands even carried my size, I came up with the idea of a closure using VELCRO ® brand fastener to fit a wide variety of women. The design allows women with small band sizes and large cups to tighten the band enough to give nice lift and shape. It also allows women with large band sizes and small cups to loosen the band to fit comfortably without having the cups too large. The Wireless Push Up Bra gives you comfort with cleavage!
The Wireless Push Up Bra is also a great Maternity Bra. I wore this bra 24 hours a day through pregnancy and breastfeeding. The super soft materials and wire free design are comfortable enough to sleep in while the open hooks allow for nursing. I am excited to share something different, a bra with the comfort of a sports bra and the lift of a push-up!"
I loved this bra! It was super comfortable and gave me the comfort of a sports bra but the shape of an underwire bra. I felt totally comfortable wearing it all day; whether lounging around the house or heading out for errands.
The only problem I had with this bra was that I ordered the size I was RIGHT when I got pregnant, and didn't anticipate the growth that would occur in the upcoming weeks. I definitely should have ordered a size bigger and just adjusted the velcro tighter until they grew.
If you're in the market for a comfortable bra (pregnant or not) I definitely recommend this! TOMgirl Apparel is offering you 10% off with the code HOOAHANDHICCUPS. They have a variety of sizes and colors and I will definitely be getting another one as I get bigger (everywhere!)
Thank you TOMgirl Apparel!
