Go with the Flow

In previous posts I had talked about the tendency of oversized or baggy shirts to be rather unflattering on preggers because it makes us look like nebulous blobs.  That being said, I have found that not all flowy shirts need to be avoided, but there is some trial and error, or more likely some luck involved.

So I guess I have to give credit to my mom for finding this style of shirt, since she bought me one in pink and I went back and bought the black and white one I am wearing in the above photo.  I'd like to think that her ability to select a garment suitable for my pregnancy is a finely honed skill resulting from my detailed and insightful blog posts...

Anyway, the manner in which the cascades drape along the body helps to give some definition, even though it is rather baggy.  I like this silhouette because it's something different than the typical empire waist, flared bottom shirt, but it's not fitted either.  To me, it's a nice balance of the two, and more importantly it's not a maternity piece, so hopefully I can wear it again!
