My daughter was 2 weeks past the due date and boy was that a two weeks dealing with people. It's starting already. ;p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92366 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 13:10:04 +0000 Violet 92366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the look as well and it does seem pratical, which is definitely a plus. I like the black shirt and black band the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92353 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 09:02:36 +0000 crwilson 92353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look Patience. I would go with plain black, myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92262 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 22:29:14 +0000 Christie 92262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I really like it! When I opened up the link, I hoped I wasn't off-track by liking it, and so I'm glad to read the comments that everyone else does too. ;)</p> <p>Will you wear it as pictured, with the button down? So pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92258 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 21:58:02 +0000 RoseandJoan 92258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this look is great and would personally opt for the plain black option.</p> <p>However in another month I would have a t shirt printed which read, "Due in December, yes I'm excited, no I have no signs yet, I don't care if it is a boy or girl so long as it's healthy!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92247 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 21:19:01 +0000 Patience 92247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm, if I went for black, would the rhinestone "Due in December" be too much bling for the belly band? (It does also come in plain.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92222 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:27:24 +0000 Anonymous 92222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great eye for catching on to this style Patience. I love how you show your cute baby belly. In the old days when I was pregnant it was all about ruffles and gathers covering it all up. I just love this new way of enhancing the baby. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92221 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:24:57 +0000 Inge 92221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking exactly the same thing as Angie: I'd wear this in a hearbeat if I were pregnant. FAN-TAS-TIC!! So elegant and funky!! (I'd stick with one colour too)</p> <p>I vote black;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92187 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 18:24:38 +0000 Sarah 92187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Patience, I love that look! I hope you get one and try it. I had a top very similar from Express that was made that way. It's almost like a cumberbund.<br /> I'm not as big of a fan of the colorblock look - to me it looks like you're wearing a band outside your top instead of it looking like a complete look that is on purpose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92182 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 18:07:13 +0000 Patience 92182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, exciting that this gets such a positive response from you. There is just not anything in the US that looks like this, but the look is definitely growing on me. It seems like such a practical solution for tops that get too short in the last trimester.</p> <p>I suspected that tonal was the way to go, but the same site has colorblocked looks as well.</p> <p><a href="http://www.umstandsmode.de/index.php?section=shopdetail&#038;id=01BL003A01099&#038;bild_selected=0" rel="nofollow">http://www.umstandsmode.de/ind.....selected=0</a></p> <p>So if I had to pick between black and white, I'm guessing you'd say white? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92165 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 17:03:33 +0000 Angie 92165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Patience, if Coco created maternity wear today - this would be it. A BIG thumbs up from me. If I were pregnant like you, THIS is what I would wear with bootcuts or straight legs and my Chanel-esque jacket. </p> <p>I think the tonal effect is crucial. A colour-blocked effect will ruin the look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-thumbs-up-or-down-for-this-look-maternity#post-92150 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 15:58:17 +0000 Patience 92150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I recently came across this look:</p> <p><a href="http://www.umstandsmode.de/index.php?section=shopdetail_puppe&#038;id=beautiful-due-russia&#038;img=0" rel="nofollow">http://www.umstandsmode.de/ind.....#038;img=0</a></p> <p>which involves a belly band over a top. My first reaction is that this is not a good look (too contrived), but the practicality of it intrigues me. So what's your opinion on the idea? If it can work what rules might be involved? In particular, should one stick with black on black or white on white or could you mix colors? Thanks. </p>
