While it may be tempting to spend your pregnancy days in drawstring pants, yoga pants and lounge wear, the time will come when you want to dress up a little or enjoy a weekend getaway with an eye-catching outfit. When you’re expecting, you can choose from several different maternity pant styles that will flatter your figure and make you feel great day and night.
Rollover pants are your best bet when you’re dealing with long days of feeling bloated and swollen. These pants fit snugly around your baby bump but have a little extra ‘give’ around the hips and waist so you feel super comfortable all day long. You also don’t have to worry about tugging or straightening these at the waist, because the elastic fit will conform to your body.
Belly leggings are another great match for the mom-to-be. These will accommodate for your growing belly, and can still flatter your body with their body-hugging fit . Leggings are a necessary backup piece for your maternity closet and can be coordinated with dozens of different tops including tunic tops, oversized sweaters, wraparound shirts and button down blouses.
If you need a pair of more formal pants for the office, look for a pair of twill pocket pants or bootcut pants from the maternity department. These will create the most figure-flattering silhouette for you throughout pregnancy, and can be matched with a number of tops and sweaters for your eye-catching ensemble.
For those days of rest and relaxation on the weekends, step things up a bit with a pair of cargo pants. Maternity cargo pants designed with an elastic waistband will fit snugly over your baby bump, and the wide-leg cut is ideal for lounging in. Pair these up with some cute flats or gladiator sandals for a cool, comfortable and fuss-free look on any day off.
Finding the right pair of pants during pregnancy can be a challenge, but you don’t have to settle for baggy jeans and oversized lounge pants through each trimester. Add any of these stylish pants to your maternity closet so you can be comfortable and fashionable season after season.
