My Momma Told Me, You Better Shop Around...

Is anyone else noticing the major lack of cute maternity clothes? I think the recession is hitting most store's maternity sections as well as their cash registers! The choices seem more limited. And frankly, the clothes out this season just aren't as cute. It's making me dread the day I have to make the switch from regular to maternity.

My solution? Ingrid & Isabel's Organic BellaBand! That's right gals, the maternity accessory that everyone loves is now available in three organic cotton colors! LOVE IT! If you aren't familiar with Ingrid & Isabel's BellaBand, it's a stretchy cotton band that can be worn over your regular pants, shorts, and skirts to expand the time you can wear your "regular" clothes! You can also use the BellaBand to help hold up your bottoms those last few weeks when everything seems to want to sneak down when you aren't looking.

The idea: you wear your pants unbuttoned and unzipped. Place the BellaBand OVER the top of you pants and the BellaBand holds your pants up and smooths the overall appearance! I used a BellaBand with both of my previous pregnancies and loved it. I personally recommend it for the second trimester when you're starting to show but maternity still swallows you whole.

Why GiveThemRoots loves the new BellaBand? The organic cotton- better for your body and better for the planet. BellaBand extends your wardrobe meaning you have to buy less maternity, IE. the 3 R's: reduce.

Head over to Ingrid & Isabel and take a peek at the Organic BellaBand! It's even great for post-baby when you're trying to squeeze back into those jeans but just aren't quite there yet.
