What you would wear out to dinner with a friend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2691019 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 16:29:02 +0000 erinbaderin 2691019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"Snappy casual" is not a thing! Why do that to your friends? I'm sure you'll be good with an LBD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2690983 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 14:53:48 +0000 Cole 2690983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies! I randomly found a little black dress I forgot I owned that magically looks good right now so I'm going with that! I appreciate the ideas, the woman who set the dress code is a phenomenally well dressed person so while I'd normally assume it meant jeans and a nicer than usual top she had me questioning it but I figure you can't go wrong with a lbd! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2690829 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 11:26:02 +0000 skipra 2690829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say something like this maybe?</p> <p><a href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/132011832799381254/" rel="nofollow">https://www.pinterest.com/pin/132011832799381254/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2690824 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 11:19:39 +0000 peachykeen 2690824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Why must people be so opaque with dress code labels?? I Googled and it sounds kind of like what I wear to work, haha. </p> <p>I've been mainly wearing side-panel maternity skinny pants (black or jean) with flowy tops and cardigans. You could dress it up more with a blazer if needed. And agree that a great necklace could take it up a notch, but I'm not that fashionable with jewelry :wink: </p> <p>It's actually kind of amazing how different I look in my lounge-at-home clothes (either fat or pregnant) and in my work clothes (honestly, I look fairly normal as long as I'm standing). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2690801 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 10:55:04 +0000 PinkElephant 2690801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: I interpreted it to mean "cool/chic/fashionable" - like something I'd wear for girls night drinks. I wonder if whoever is sending the invitation has some friends/family members who would interpret "casual" as a baseball jersey and gym shorts, and they're trying to avoid THAT casual of a look :) Although I don't know anyone (other than grandmas) who says "snappy", hehe ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2690790 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 10:30:56 +0000 winniebee 2690790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't even know what snappy casual means!?!?!? </p> <p>Dark skinny jeans, ankle booties, and a flowy blouse and statement necklace, come to mind. That's what I wore to a 40th at 15 weeks. You could still see my bump, but it wasn't on showcase. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2690788 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 10:29:48 +0000 PinkElephant 2690788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Black leggings, tall boots, and some kind of tunic or open/drapey sweater! Do people know you are pregnant, or are you trying to disguise it? If so, maybe a scarf or statement necklace to draw attention up and away from the midsection! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-help-snappy-casual-at-13-weeks-pregnant#post-2690786 Thu, 02 Feb 2017 10:25:46 +0000 Cole 2690786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a party this weekend and I thought it was cocktail apparel but it is actually "snappy casual." What on earth do I wear? Plus I am in that limbo zone of pregnancy where I have a bump but really it just looks like I put on a few pounds so nothing fits or lays right. It's Saturday so I don't have much time to shop and my wardrobe is pretty bare bones. </p>
