Aw, congrats on your pregnancy! As many of my tweeps pointed out, being pregnant doesn’t mean you’re handicapped! Of course you can keep it low key yet still look festive for dinner gatherings, house parties, or wherever the night takes you.

I personally like this $185 ruched one shoulder dress by Isabella Oliver:
Fierce!
If you’d prefer a top and bottom combo, why not take a cue from one of the most fabulous pregnant ladies in the land, Beyonce?
Slip on a sequined jacket with a pair of comfy pants, skirt, or dress. Leave it unbuttoned so you’ll have room for your bump:
If you’d prefer a simple top, try these on for size:
For pants, opt for dress slacks, dark jeans, or even leggings:
And for shoes, I’d suggest flats or kitten heels (though based on Beyonce’s looks, heels are A OK for women with child). Here’s a short selection:

Have fun and toast (with a glass of sparkling juice) to the New Year!

I’m 37 weeks and whenever I want a cute dress for a special occasion I go to asos. I just bought a super fly dress for my baby shower from them a couple weeks ago. But if u want to get it in time for new years make sure to do expedited shipping.
