Apply intelligent dressingBold colours are fabulous when you want to liven up your look, however classic neutrals are more versatile. I adore classic shapes in reliable shades, and like to play with accessories to add a pop of add colour or texture. It's great to create different looks with the same piece by just accessorising differently. Baukjen |
The ultimate Beauty Treatment.... is looking after yourself. Make time to relax in a bath, enjoy a pregnancy massage, go on a long walk, read a good book or pamper your feet with a pedicure. There's always so much to do, so make sure you take time to relax. Be kind to yourself, like you would to your best friend. Baukjen & Vanessa |
Invest in a 'forever dress'A LBD (little black dress) will see you through a number of occasions, however an FD (forever dress) will last, well, forever, even long after your baby is born. Perfect at every stage and long after pregnancy, I love our wrap dresses for their comfort and truly flattering fit. Choose one in a classic shade and one in a more lively hue for when you really want to make an entrance. Baukjen |

Don't compromise your style or comfortWith our first pregnancies, Vanessa and I didn't always recognise the limits of our non-maternity wardrobes - a common mistake. I don't do what we did. Instead of constantly pulling tops down and trousers up, invest in good quality maternity clothes that have been designed for pregnancy curves. There are so many options to suit all budgets and personal taste, we hope you can enjoy comfort and confident style. Baukjen |
Pregnancy Fashion-omicsA friend of ours said "If you calculate the cost per wear and compare that with many pieces in your wardrobe, your pregnancy wear comes out on top." It is so true. I suggest purchasing wearable, good quality and well fitting maternity essentials that you can mix and match endlessly, creating different outfits for wherever you might be heading. After all, every woman wants to get the most from her investment in clothing. Vanessa |
Feel Beauty-fulA flawless glow is a fabulous accompaniment to pregnancy, however it is always fun to experiment with different beauty looks during this special time. Smokey eyes teamed with a nude, matte lip shade create drama that is perfect for evening. For day, spritz a fresh scent and add a dusting of bronzer for subtle shimmer. I find makeup does wonders for self esteem, giving you a little boost of confidence when you really need it. Vanessa |

Avoid trimester specific designsThere is no need to buy for a specific window or trimester within your pregnancy. Opt for designs that cleverly evolve their shape and fit, to see you through your entire pregnancy. And make sure to invest in pregnancy friendly fabrics such as jersey. Baukjen |
Modern pregnancy styleTo us, pregnancy curves are beautiful. Embrace your curvaceous body. Don't hide behind oversized, shapeless clothes when you can accent your figure with flattering silhouettes that sculpt, wrap or drape sensuously. Celebrate your femininity. Baukjen |
