Jessica Alba in a funky blue maternity dress

Jessica Alba is one photogenic mama. Her mixed ethnic background has delivered her the most beautiful features including lovely almond set eyes and heart-shaped face. Added to all of this, she has a very successful career, a gorgeous hubby and a growing family. Its hard to imagine just how much more perfect her life could be.

She also understands STYLE with a capital S. Often photographed, on the red-carpet and out and about, she never seems to look fazed by the constant attention and always manages to look effortlessly cool. This is equally true when she's pregnant. In this photo below, she is wearing the cutest blue maternity dress with contrast trim.

What makes her style even more appealing is that she is so relaxed and at ease with herself. Like Jessica, enjoying your pregnancy and the expectation that you'll have a gorgeous baby after nine months is the first step to being a yummy mummy. The second step is to treat yourself to some funky maternity clothes. This needn't cost a great deal of money. As you can see, we've found a blue maternity dress with white trim not unlike Jessica's. It ticks all the style boxes: stunning colour, fitted to show off your bump, strapless style, white contrast trim. The best thing about this dress is that its on sale at www.maternitysale.com.au for $59!

Natalie Portman in a gorgeous purple maternity dress

Natalie Portman has to be one of the most stylish mums-to-be out there. She attended the 2010 Academy Awards dressed in this most stunning purple maternity dress. Not only is the colour amazing, but the dress she picked shows off one of the seasons most important fashion trends: draping. She accessorised her dress beautifully with matching tassel earrings, Jimmy Choo heels and a simple gold clutch. A simple hair-do with her tresses pinned back, falling naturally behind her shoulders showed that less is more. Natalie is definitely a winner in the maternity fashion stakes as well as the film industry, winning best actress for her role in Black Swan.

  

Its often difficult to find the right maternity dress for a special occasion. First, there is the question of expense – you’re possibly only going to wear this dress once, or at most, a handful of times. Secondly, when you're pregnant, you want to look glamourous but feel comfortable at the same time. Well, I have found a great purple maternity dress for evening wear that doesn’t break the bank. The maxi style is totally on trend and it has 3 rows of plaits under the bust to match the plaited straps. What’s more, its on sale right now at www.maternitysale.com.au for $AU 72, normally retailing for $AU 105.
