Bold. Chic. Sexy.
Three words that are not usually associated with maternity style.
However, one of the most creative fashion bloggers of our time, Chic Ama is here to change all of that.
The fashion-forward Style Entrepreneur recently welcomed her second child, and her fans are more than thrilled.
Changing the fashion to fitÂ
With the body changes that come with pregnancy, a change of wardrobe is almost inevitable; but does one have to change her style too?
Chic Ama’s maternity style is proof that you don’t change to fit the fashion, you change the fashion to fit you.
She stayed true to the bold, chic, and sexy style she is well known for, despite her growing belly.
For instance, the fashion statement she made in this mustard ensemble which she calls the ‘mustard glory’, is nothing short of iconic.
“Mustard is really a bold color and that explains why a lot of people try to stay away from it,” wrote the blogger. “But, how about we just try to break away from that rule and start to rock this color trend more often,” she added.
What is particularly interesting is that most of her outfits are non-maternity. “I wouldn’t be wearing a lot of maternity outfits. I feel more comfortable wearing regular stylish cloth that has lots of stretch to it,” she said.
Comfort and style in the same sentence? Yes please!
We are also saying ‘yes’ to this super-stretchy-super-beautiful olive dress from @snazzyclozet.
Glamour never takes a day off
Chic Ama’s style standards and pumps remained very high, no compromises at all.
That’s what the pregnaslay movement is all about – slaying with a bump in tow.
Below are some of her most iconic looks. We are thoroughly inspired by the slayage of it all!
A chic has got to work
How does a preggo mama stay fashionably pregnant in the office environment? In beautifully cut shirts, jackets, skirts, pants and dresses, that’s how.
The fashionista and stylist looks professional in these ultra-feminine yet stylish pieces which flatter her bump. With a bow here, and a belt there; she uses the versatility of accessories to revamp what would have been a regular outfit.
Ama’s work-wear inspiration is definitely for the classy and fabulous pregnant chic.
Rising to the occasion
Every special occasion deserves a special outfit, be it a wedding, a dinner, a red carpet event, or simply a night out with the girls. Who says a pregnant woman cannot be a fabulous guest?
Chic Ama rises to the occasion in these elegant and figure flattering cuts. Legend has it that she made a grand entrance and wowed the crowd at every event she attended in these outfits. Pregnaslay anyone?
So printastic
As if being pregnant wasn’t cute enough, adding prints to the mix makes for pure magic!
Prints are fun, they are vivacious, they are bold, they are confident. They embody everything a true African woman represents.
