Every second photo you see of pregnant celebrities now days shows them wearing a cardigan over just about everything. Why, I hear you say… well it because it is the most practical and comfortable solution to stay warm during the cooler months and most of all it has the added bonus of elongating your body when worn correctly.
Generally speaking if you are quite tall then you would look fabulous in longer line cardigan, if you are a little on the shorter side then a cropped cardi will work perfectly for you, and for anyone in between go crazy with and try something bright and cheerful at any length.
We recommend trying knitted cardigans in beautiful fabrics like cashmere. If you purchase a classic piece and care for it properly you will have it for years to come.
Also, don’t limit yourself only to knitted cardigans, try a cropped leather jacket for a ‘right to the minute’ look or a long flowing jersey wrap which you can pull together, cinched in with a belt above your tummy for a look which will take you from day to night.
Cardigans look great with everything and are versatile enough to dress up or down but be careful not to look too ‘nanna-ish’. Make sure you purchase a style which suits your shape, individuality and colouring preferably without any embroidery, overly large buttons or without any shape. Use the mantra “Keep it Simple” when purchasing.
The main thing to remember here is to choose the style of cardigan which you would normally wear when you are not expecting, this will ensure you will continue to wear it after your special package or packages arrive.
