PREGNANT IN HEELS

 

Standing tall and proud, pregnant in heels, is a common practice these days.  Celebs rock the look, many of my fellow Haute Moms do, for gawd sake, there was a TV show named after it.  But there's still a science to looking graceful and glam on bottom, with a burgeoning tummy on top.  HauteMomsClub, here's how it breaks down - the DO's and DONT's to working it, Pregnant In Heels

DO: Respect that comfort is key.  Platforms for example.  They're always a great, comfy option. It's simply about finding the right pair.  Remember, feeling comfortable exudes confidence.

DO: Opt for wedges if stilettos are out of the question.  Shopping, lunching, sunning, whatever it is, the wedge is your answer.  Comfy, Cute, Can you ever have too many?!  Nope :)

DO:

Rock statement heels.  I love the idea of a super funky heel to jazz up any outfit.  Especially, if you like me, choose black over any other color during your pregnancy.

DON'T:

Be too brave.  Retire those triple-platform Loubies...for now.  Safety, first...face-planting, definitely not the idea.  And perhaps a bit silly seeing any woman about to give birth working hooker heels.

DON'T:

Squeeze into a 6.5 when you're really a 7.  Foot fat is never fun.  Fact #1: Your feet expand during pregnancy.   Fact #2: They usually return to their normal size so don't go selling off your treasured Zanottis.  Unless of course, they're size 7 and you live in the LA area.  In that case, let's exchange info.

DON'T:

Forget where you're going.  Map out how much walking you'll actually be doing.  Car to table to bathroom back to car simply requires looking fabulous.  A trip to Disney, and perhaps a great Tory Burch wedge flip-flop will do.

And finally, DO enter a room loud and proud and DON'T look back :)
