The baby bump messing with your style? Here's a quick chic guide on what to wear on any occasion.
Errands
Nothing says comfy-casual like jeans and a tee. Do a Megan Fox and throw on a soft shirt and a pair of denims with an elasticized waist so you can run around all day.
Shopping
Isla Fisher’s bold print dress is fun and fuss-free. Plus, it’s so easy to take off for those turns in the dressing room.
Angelina Jolie’s simple white dress features a bold design--something for your friends to gush about, aside from your baby bump, of course!

Date Night
Remind your hubby to keep the romance alive with a baby-doll dress like the one Sarah Jessica Parker’s wearing. It’s sweet and sexy at the same time.
Cocktail Party
Isn’t it great to be in a tight dress and not have to suck your tummy in? Adriana Lima shows us that a party is more fun when you can show off bare limbs and baby curves!
Office
A classic wrap dress like Selma Blair’s is the perfect no-nonsense dress for attending meetings and accommodating a growing belly.
Church
Opt for a breezy white dress with a drop-down waist to subtly show off your bump. A soft jacket, like the one Kate Hudson’s wearing, provides warmth and cover.
Family Reunion
Both old and young will find you adorable in a sweet black mini dress with cap sleeves featuring a cute (but not kiddie!) print, just like the one Anna Paquin has on.
Wedding
Celebrate love and style in a dreamy dress with festive sparkle. You can choose to show off your ample cleavage, too, a la Jennifer Garner!
Summer
When the hot days hit, the maxi dress--which calls to mind long, lazy days in the sun--is the go-to closet staple of moms-to-be like Nicole Richie.

Travel
A loose mini dress like Miranda Kerr’s is comfy and the black color hides creases. Throw on a button-down for cover. Flats complete the casual look.
Fat Days
Some days you just can’t help but feel huge. The solution: Black! The non-color slims every kind of body, even a beautifully pregnant one like Heidi Klum’s.
