What to wear in the Summer when you are pregnant…

Well well well let´s talk about being pregnant in the Summer. This is my third pregnancy and it usually comes with a long list of annoying (more or less) challenges, but getting dressed for the heat hasn´t been a huge focus the last two times. This time around I am having a cute pumpkin October baby but this means powering through all of Summer and these are a surprise every year. You never know how the temperatures will be. 

This year around I would say other than three hot weeks at once we were lucky and hit the jackpot with warm and dry weather, but now the question of all questions – what to wear in the Summer when you are pregnant and hot, sweating and uncomfortable all the time ??!!

Dresses 

No matter the season I always reach for a dress. It is just the easiest way to get dressed. Grab one piece throw it on and done. Now of course there are hundreds of different cuts and pieces out there. So what would be the most flattering / comfortable to choose for pregnancy. This is also a personal preference things but I am sharing both my views.

Loose 

A loose dress will definitely your best friend before the bump really pops cause you can hide a lot under it and also when you are very far along cause it is flowy and comfortable and not restrictive at all. Also a great piece to wear when the baby is here and you are unsure or unsecure of your postpartum body.

Fitted

While these look very cute with a baby bump you might want to find them a little tight at some point in your pregnancy. I have many pieces that stretch out a lot and I still love to wear but to be honest on very hot days they are making it a lot hotter cause the air just can´t flow through. 

Skirts

Now skirts I find to be a little tricky when I am honest. Do you wear the waistband over or under the belly and how about the length and width of the shirt. You can opt for a fitted shirt / top and crop it a little so you don´t drown in fabric or you go for a oversized longer shirt that might be a little more comfortable but now as easy to pull off. There have only been a few days where I wore a skirt and a shirt combo. Also I find it hard to tolerate anything tight around my belly at this point. I really miss my skirts, but come Fall I can probably fit back into at least a few.

 

Pants

I haven´t worn lots of pants to be honest. It is not my preferable choice of clothing but sometimes I grab a pair and cause you can´t style every kind of top/shirt with a skirt or dress. Now at 8 months pregnant there is no way I still fit into any kind of normal pant and also my maternity denim is way too tight around the belly (hasn´t been this huge the last two times). 

Stretchy pants and have been the answer the first few months but now it also isn´t comfortable anymore. The waistband is too tight and I feel very restricted.  This is just a personal preference and if your bump is a lot smaller I am sure you can find comfortable maternity pants but there is no chance for me. 

 

Shoes

Now shoes have been a total different story. At this point most of my shoes do not fit anymore. My feet have just gotten so wide I can only wear adjustable, very stretchy shoes or flip flops. I do have enough though but I really miss most of my shoes. Also I am very anxious what to wear when the weather cools down and I have to wear closed toe shoes. There is no way I will fit into those.

Our Summer vacation is finally in sight – even so close I have started packing (I usually pack a lot earlier but I need to try on my clothes about a week before if they still fit the bump). September is the perfect month to visit Lake Garda. No thunderstorms or humidity, no unbearable heat and less people. 

Since I am very pregnant our program will mostly contain pool time which I am not mad about to be honest. We will probably visit another city every morning for some pastries, people watching and cappuccinos but other than that you can find me at the pool ´til it is time for dinner.

Being 8 months pregnant might not be the best requirement for cute pieces but I have found the best of the best and the cutest cover-ups I have seen in a while. There are also lots of maternity swimsuits out there I can definitely recommend and at a great price point. 

I am also going to share some things we are using for sun protection since the sun will still be strong in September and we do not want to get grilled out there.

Can´t believe I am still sharing fashion post and outfit inspo at 30 weeks pregnant but I still manage to find non-maternity pieces that fit well. Thanks to flowy Summer dresses and warm temperatures. 

I have found this gorgeous blush dress a few weeks back and while it looks fine on it was a bit snug in the size I took it while wearing but not uncomfortably. 

Went back and forth about the color pairing but I ended up liking the green a lot with the blush color. I added such a nice colorful and fresh touch to the whole look.

The laser cut details on the skirt and the sleeves totally give the dress its wow factor. I have gotten lots of compliments that day and this might have helped tremendously. 

You can buy the dress HERE and it is under 20 Euro.
