Where to shop is not at all a question now-a-days, with the number of stores catering to the needs of expecting mothers, increasing day-by-day. Pregnancy is the fulfillment of a women’s life and all maternity dress shop owners are aware of the blissful moments the mothers-to-be are going through. Keeping that in mind they have dresses made for all occasions; wedding dresses, prom dresses, casual wears, party wear, swimming dress, brides maid dress etc.
So, it will not be difficult to find a shop to buy formal maternity dresses. The thing, to take care of, is the dress itself. Though your basic body structure will not change with pregnancy, some parts related to pregnancy, especially the stomach, chest, hips etc. will develop and expand. So, you must select dresses that fit your gradually developing body, without making you look oversized or sloppy.
The days of the past, when we wore loose garments to hide the bulging stomach during pregnancy are gone; hot, stylish maternity dresses are the ‘in thing’ now. Although you get maternity leave during pregnancy, it is only for the last 3 months of pregnancy and first 3 months of post pregnancy. So for working women formal maternity dresses are a must. Almost all the maternity dress shops have a section for formal wears.
Formal or informal, the dresses you buy during maternity period should be made up of soft fabrics that stretch so that you won’t feel uncomfortable when your body develops. Elegant formal skirt that can be adjusted at the waist with a formal shirt – a little loose at the middle – will do well for formal wear. Pants with belly bands or stretch panels will go fine with white oxford shirt. Make your inner wears are also comfortable. Buy only sizes that fit for two months or less.
Now, modern maternity suits are also available to keep your shape. Some women take pride in showing off their stomach, more so, if it is her first baby. Those who don’t like others to see the baby bulge, use scarves, shawls of dark colors to distract attention from the stomach. If it is winter use loose sweater to cover bump. Whatever dress you wear, the proof that your womanhood is fulfilled, is the most blissful and beautiful moment.

Do you bite your nails and wish you had lovely long tips to flaunt at the next wedding or formal dinner party you are invited to? Or are you someone like me, who spends a bundle of money at the nail salon only to come home and chip or break one? If you fantasize about matching your nails to your prom dress of wedding dress, then custom nail tips may be just what you were looking for. These are great for making a statement at your next cocktail party as well.
If you don’t have the patience to grow long wonderful fingernails or toenails, or if you are a nail biter or suffer from brittle and weak nails, then artificial acrylic nails are the best thing for you. Nowadays you can purchase acrylic nails with wonderful designs and prints, which can either match or contrast with your dress or be the focal point of your outfit. You can even upload an image and send it to the manufacturer to create your own custom, one-of–a-kind design. Nail tips also come with rhinestones, and you can choose from tips adorned with heart–shaped, round or tear-drop rhinestones.
You can change your nail design to match your outfit or your mood as often as you wish, since these tips are applied with waterproof double-sided stickers. They are easy to remove and do not damage your nails in the least. These stickers allow you to reuse your nails again and again, offering you great value for the money. Since you are not using harmful nail glue, the chance of damaging your nail shaft is almost nil.
Nails can stay on for as long as 24 hours – perfect for attending that wedding or cocktail party. They are also a lot faster to apply and a lot cheaper than a visit to the local beauty salon for a manicure and a pedicure.
Some people spend a fortune to have nail artists painstakingly paint their nails with designs and also stick on rhinestones and other nail jewels. You could end up spending hours sitting in a chair waiting for your nails to dry, not to mention the money you will end up paying for the service plus tip. If you do happen to break or chip a nail, there is nothing to do except clip the rest of your nails and remove all the embellishments, which is a waste of hard-earned money and your precious time.
With acrylic nail tips, you only need a couple of minutes to stick the tips onto your nails. If you break or lose one, there is always a spare in the packet, and they come in different sizes and shapes to suit your fingers.
Since these are also custom designed if you want them to be, they are great fun to wear for a theme party, graduation party or even a bridal shower. If you’re feeling adventurous, make custom designed sets for all your friends and bridesmaids at your wedding or bridal shower as unique and memorable gifts.
