Pregnancy Chic: The Fashion Survival Guide

I bought this book for a friend of mine who, when telling me about her wonderful "I'm Pregnant!" news, she followed up with a quick, "Help! I need fashion advice. I don't want to be in sailor dresses for 9 months!" Before giving her this book, I read it and LOVED IT! For those of us who are NOT pregnant, but actually looking forward to it someday, but who are also turned off by the maternity clothes we have seen, this is a true find. As the authors say, why wear something when you are pregnant that you wouldn't ever wear when you are NOT pregnant! I think that it's time for pregnant women to feel GOOD and BEAUTIFUL while they are pregnant and to even be sexy when they want to! Stop hiding under baggy, oversized clothing and be proud! This books gives you great tips on how to be fashionable while your body seems out of control.

This book is a must for anyone who is pregnant and a great gift for any pregnant woman. The book is well written, fun and informative. The book's authors, Cherie Serota and Jody Kozlow Gardner (the creators of the Pregnancy Survival Kit) present the book in a narrative form based on their personal experiences and the experiences of their friends. It provides a guide for what to wear from the beginning of one's pregnancy to after the baby is born. The book is filled with great how to dress tips, from what to look for in your husband's closet to what bathing suit works best for what body types. The book walks you through wardrobe do's and dont's for the entire nine months and beyond. The personal anectdotes along with the obvious expertise that Ms. Serota and Ms. Gardner bring to the book make this a must, but also fun, read for every pregnant woman.
