Liz Lange on Easy Pregnancy Style

Feeling good and looking good go hand in hand, so you've got to love the wardrobe wisdom that comes from a mom who's been there, done that ‑- and built a company around it. We asked maternity-wear designer Liz Lange, a woman who certainly puts the "style" in stylish pregnancy, for some tips on pregnancy wear that works.

We all want to be fashionable and comfortable ‑- without spending a ton of money. What are your maternity wardrobe must-haves?
These days, every woman needs denim. It's perfect. It comes in so many washes and can be worn in so many ways. Get a great-fitting pair of jeans in a cut that you like. Darker jeans are the most versatile, as you can dress them up more. The same thing goes for T-shirts. They're a staple. Get one with short or long sleeves, in a neckline that you like to wear. Wear it alone or under a shirt. Try a button-front shirt in a stretch cotton, cut like ones in your husband's closet. Get a tunic ‑- they've moved from trend item to maternity basic. You can find cute ones that are embellished or plain. A great-fitting pair of black pants is a must, because you can dress them up or dress them down. Get a little ‑- or not so little ‑- black dress. It's all about versatility. And when it comes to seasonal stuff, you can't go without some kind of sweater. I like a black turtleneck. And a twin set is an incredible item. You can wear it as an underpinning with suits or with the cardigan. And you can wear the cardigan with sleeveless items or with nothing on under it. And of course, in the summer, a bathing suit and sundress.
