One Maternity Dress 5 Different Ways (at least!)

Hi Ladies, Megan here!

For those of you who don't know me personally (or who aren't following me on Instagram...username meganpotter_stylist in case you're wondering) I'd like to announce that I'm expecting my first child! I'm currently 25 weeks, that's 6 months and 1 week and as a personal stylist I'm having lots of fun dressing for my constantly changing shape.

It can be tricky getting it just right when you need to think about comfort, style, practicality, the humid Brisbane weather, office appropriateness, brunch/shopping with friends and dinner/night time attire but I've found a dress that has the ability to tick all those boxes!!

Look no further than the Sussan Maternity Tee Shirt Dress - you can shop it here. Its comfy viscose, machine washable and doesn't need ironing! (Not a sponsored post, I just like to make it easy for you!)

The easiest and quickest way to style-it-up is to mix and match your jewellery and accessories. Try layering a couple of necklaces at a time to really make the look your own - I find this particularly useful if you're wearing necklaces from a chain-store and you know they've sold thousands of the same necklaces.

Print scarves are also highly useful for styling a plain dress but I've been avoiding them due to the humidity.

If you need a light coat opt for a denim jacket or vest.

 

When heading to the office just throw on a blazer (normally this is still ok in summer because offices are air conditioned) but if you find it too hot for a blazer try a sleeveless version instead.

 

 



To add an element of style without compromising keeping cool, try a kimono or cape. They're absolutely everywhere at the moment so you'll have no trouble finding one to suit your taste and budget.

For an element of fun add some colour and print! ...then throw on some heels and you're ready for a night of Thai food and ginger beer (my idea of a preggo friendly night out!)

Last but certainly not least the best way to get the most out of your tee shirt dress is to wear it as a skirt! Don't waist money buying a black maternity skirt when you can just layer a top over your black dress! It's sheer genius yet so simple!
