Just because you have a baby on the way doesn’t mean you have to throw your wardrobe out the window. But it also doesn’t mean that you have to invest a fork load of cash on a whole closet worth of new clothes. Here are some clever tips for saving money on maternity clothes:
1. Inventory Your Clothes – Take some time to look at what you already own and you’ll be surprised at how many clothes you’ll still be able to wear. Keep a look out for low-waist, empire-waist and gartered clothing. It might mean changing your current style, but at least you won’t have to pay for clothes you’ll only be wearing for a few months.
2. Shop Smart – Looking for discounts and bargains go without saying, but buying maternity clothes that are too trendy might end up backfiring on you. Try to pick clothes that won’t easily go out of style once the next little one comes around. Stick to plainer, solid designs that are easier to accessorize with jewelry, shawls, handbags, coats and jackets.
3. Maternity Bands – This ingenious little belly band was designed especially for women who still want the option of wearing their own clothes without the hassle of having them altered. This gartered accessory goes over your waist and covers the loose buttons of your jeans so you can still wear your favorite pants even as your baby bump grows with time.
