Maternity Lounge Essentials
‘Tis the season (/year) for hibernating. Get cozy in these loungewear favorites, which have been picked for A) their softness and B) ability to stay comfortable with constantly changing bellies and boobs.
Everlane Cashmere Jumpsuit — ah, the jumpsuit. They look cute on any size bump, have no troublesome waistbands, require only one decision in the morning, and somehow still look like you made an effort.
Everlane Luxe Cotton Side-Slit Tee Dress — the tee dress, like this soft-yet-structured pick from Everlane, is an easy choice for warmer weathered winters. Drape a denim jacket over your shoulders in cooler climates.
Storq Maternity Leggings — softer than workout leggings, stretchier than pajamas, and thicker than tights, this pair has it all. You’ll be reaching for these long after baby’s born.
H&M MAMA Joggers — another staple for your loungewear repertoire. While you can get away with non-maternity options for tops and dresses, opt for maternity lines with pants as waistbands start to dig into growing bellies.
H&M Mock-turtleneck Sweater — a boxy knit is a pregnancy-long staple. This mock neck and touch of wool keeps you warm without overheating, its flecked color goes with anything, and the pretty detailing at the neckline looks polished on Zooms.
Electric Sherpa Throw — the only downside to this fresh take on the electric blanket is that you’ll be looking for a plug next to ever chair in your home.
Calvin Klein Maternity Nursing Bra — a soft cotton bralette that serves double-duty if you’re nursing.
Birkenstock Arizona Shearling — did you know that carrying baby’s weight all day can actually flatten your feet? Pick shoes — and slippers! — with good arch support, like these cozy Birks.
