Valentine’s Day isn’t necessarily an excuse to shop, but it also kind of is. We all want to look and feel our best on the most romantic day of the year, and if buying a killer new date-night outfit helps us do that, why resist? The same logic applies to expectant moms, but perhaps even more so. The body experiences so much change and transition during pregnancy, and depending on where you are in the process, your go-to date-night look may no longer fit. Why not stock up on a couple of cute maternity dresses that are absolutely perfect for Valentine’s Day (and every other sexy date night that follows)?
Though shopping trendy maternity clothing might sound like a challenge, retailers have so thoroughly stocked up on the stuff it actually isn’t as hard as it may seem. Asos and Shopbop are full of cute maternity dresses — and maternity clothing hotspots like Motherhood Maternity and Pink Blush Maternity are filled to the brim with comfy-cute options as well.
No matter your aesthetic, level of date-night formality or tolerance of anything but stretchy, cozy fabrics, your Valentine’s Day sartorial soul mate exists — I promise. So load up on cute maternity dresses — these beauties are begging to accompany you on your upcoming Valentine’s Day date (and, you know, every date night that awaits you in the near future).
