Embellished Maternity Tops
Maternity clothes : Embellished Maternity Tops
Embellished tops are one kind of fashion statement that you can feel great in during pregnancy. When your body is changing and you are not certain what to wear as your belly grows, wearing an embellished maternity top can make for a trendy ensemble that can keep you looking good.
I wore several embellished tops during pregnancy myself. I even took my pregnany portrait in one embellished top and wore another embellished top at the hospital after having the baby. I found some of the embellished tops at very inexpensive prices off the rack at Burlington Coat Factory. I think that Burlington Coat Factory is one of the best places for finding great deals on clothing in general.
Remember, that a top does not need to be labeled as a maternity top as long as it is very loose fitting. You can potentially wear a loose fitting embellished top right through to the 9th month of pregnancy and after, while your belly is returning to normal size.
Another great place to purchase embellished maternity tops is Torrid which touts itself as "the destination for trendy plus-size fashion and accessories."
One of my favorite looks in embellished maternity tops is offered at this store. See the picture below.
Teal embellished top
This teal embellished top with jeweled black neckline is offered exclusively on-line and not in stores. It is currently priced at $38. I love the teal color and the teal and black combination of this embellished top.
Blackberry embellished top
Below is a short sleeve maternity trapeze shirt offered at Motherhood maternity store. The color is blackberry with metallic detailing as the neckline embellishment. This is a really pretty top and it has terrific customer ratings. It is currently priced at $19.99.

Not specifically marketed as a maternity top, but still good
While not specifically marketed as a maternity top, the Isabel Stone embroidered tunic pictured below is offered at Dillard's and priced at $88. It is available in the color black and sizes small to large. The way it is cut should offer plenty of room for your growing belly for a while.
A special time
Pregnancy is such a special time to enjoy. You can also pull on no fuss embellished tops such as these to remain fashionable and trendy for special occasions or for everyday.
You can take it from me. Embellished tops were really a staple of my maternity wardrobe. I hope you find this article helpful as you shop for a maternity wardrobe to fit your own sense of style. Have a happy and relaxing pregnancy!
