How to Choose the Right Pair of Maternity Jeans



Yes, jeans are a really personal garment for every woman. Finding a pair that fits perfectly is difficult enough when you are not pregnant. Imagine how difficult it is buying a pair of maternity jeans when you are not really certain how your body shape will change. And jeans as a garment is very punishing to shape changes. Yet, it is one garment that can make you look incredibly sexy. And, do not worry! Maternity jeans are designed beautifully these days. They fit well, look good, are comfortable and grow with your shape.

Here are some tips that help you choose the right pair of maternity jeans:

The look: Most maternity jeans look like normal jeans except for the abdominal panel that replaces the zipper and buttons in the normal jeans. When teamed with a long top, an observer will not be able to find their look any different from the normal ones. When buying one, make sure that the back is a little high but the front is below the belly with a panel on the abdomen. If the front is too high, the jeans will get uncomfortable with a growing belly and will keep slipping down.

The length: A longer pair is good

as you can wear wedges or a bit of heels with them. That makes you look slimmer and taller and enhance your look.

The fit: Try on the jeans and they must fit well. Make sure the fabric is soft to touch and wear. You don’t want stiff fabric digging into your skin. Also stretch material makes it comfortable and gives room to your legs for shape fluctuations.

Panels: Jeans come with half panels or full abdominal panels made of cloth or elastic material. Half panels are fine in the initial months but full panels are preferred for later stages. As the belly grows bigger, it needs more support that a full panel can provide adequately and also prevents slipping of the jeans over the tummy. Always while trying the jeans, sit down and see how comfortable the jeans feel. Also look for adjustable waistbands.

Belt loops: Some women find it comfortable to wear a belt to adjust the size of their jeans as per their convenience. Belt loops can help you do that.
