When you’re a parent-to-be, figuring out how to dress your newly changing body can become a full-blown wardrobe crisis. However, every time you get dressed in the morning doesn’t have to be a challenge. Creating capsule wardrobes and investing in key pieces during your pregnancy will not only save you money in the long run, but they will make dressing as fulfilling as ever.
So instead of getting a ton of maternity-specific tops, we suggest you stick to a few basic, neutral staples, including the one shirt that should be in your maternity wardrobe no matter what: chambray shirts.
Maternity chambray shirts go with everything from jeans to stretchy skirts and leggings. So whether you like a true blue classic, a button-down, an off-the-shoulder top, or an oversize tunic, we found the best chambray shirts in the market that will allow you to get creative with your maternity wardrobe and make you feel instantly pulled together.
