Looking good pregnant

Pregnant fashionPregnant fashion

When you see these beautiful pictures you wish you were pregnant don’t you? Well I do! :P

The models are a bit skinny to be pregnant (even if those exist too) and it bothers me a bit, but fashion photography will always be fashion photography right? But the clothes still looks wonderful though!

Isabella Oliver designs great maternity wear, and you should look awesome even if you are pregnant! My tummy isn’t really flat so I guess I could fit in these amazing clothes as well! :P

Trouble finding the right bathing suit?

SwimwearIf you have had trouble finding the right bathing suit, I can really feel your pain. I have been there several times as well!
When I decided to start exercising by swimming twice a week after I gained quite some weight as a side effect of my medication, I felt the fear before going in to the store to pick out my swimwear.

It couldn’t be any bathing suit either, it had to cover some areas and I didn’t want my breasts to fall out if I bend down. As you all know the mini trend has been hot for quite some time now. The mini trend doesn’t fit me, if you have a little more weight than “normal” those mini suits won’t be appealing. I had to go through all the stores in the city just to find one I could feel comfortable in!

Thank goodness there are online swimwear retailers out there that specializes in plus sizes (they got normal sizes too of course). If you ever experienced the same horrible situation as me, I would really recommend checking them out!

Keeping up with fashion through fashion blogs

I have always loved fashion even if I never really follow the hot trends. I like to read about fashion as well and I have subscribed to several fashion blogs. By doing so I have a steady flow of updates when it comes to news in the fashion world and I have also stumbled on many, many tips and ideas.

LifeofFashion is one fashion blog that has one post called “How to Dress Fashionably on a Budget” that is worthy to read if you, like me, doesn’t want to spend a fortune on clothes.

There are many positive things by reading fashion blogs that you don’t get with a fashion magazine, and that is that you can interact with the author and other readers, get updated more often than once a month, you save money by not buying the magazine (so you get more cash over for the clothes! :P) and you save the natures resources since the magazine is made of paper.

So stay in touch with the fashion world online, why not start with LifeofFashion?
