maternity clothes

Some women (like Gisele Bundchen) don't need maternity clothes. The rest of us mere mortals do. We're looking for style and comfort. Vivique maternity clothing seems to fit the bill.

The clothes look like anything I'd want to wear when not pregnant (a critical factor) and the line includes stuff for work, "play," and nights out.

Vivique is up there in price—every item (dress, pants, skirt) is over $100. But a few smart pieces will get you through your pregnancy. And if you only gain weight in your tummy, you should be able to wear the clothes post-pregnancy too—the company uses a "patent pending waistband technology" (I interpret this as being an expandable and retractable waistband).

Even if I couldn't wear them post-pregnancy, I'd buy some of these clothes (the cowl and cardigan sweaters, the classic suit dress, and the comfy black suit pants) and just wear them over and over. They're just lovely.
