I feel like I'm losing my fashion sense and I need help figuring out how to rock a belt with my growing belly bump! Also, are there maternity belts or do I just wear a non-mat belt but a larger size? I'm clueless and need the help of more fashion-sensible girls. Thanks in advance!

Wear the belt at the top of your bump! Baby doll style
-
@chopsuey119: Thanks! Do I wear a regular size belt or do I need to go up a size?
-
I never liked that look with a traditional belt, I much prefer it with a printed scarf, it looks softer, esp. as your belly gets bigger. I mean, would you wear a belt that high up if you weren't pregnant?
-
I've never heard of maternity belts- and even if they exist I would think it's cheaper to get a normal one in a bigger size.

@ALittleP: I'm not sure about sizing.. I'm guessing you'd need a bigger one though. SOmething like this is a really cute look

Thanks, ladies! @Looch: I love the idea of a scarf!

I never tried wearing a belt around my waist in pregnancy bc I have no waist and all my tops are log. I have worn a skinny belt to cinch a swater/ top above my bump and think it's cute. I just wear a normal skinny belt in a cute color.

I think winniebee's look is the way to go. Skinny belt, bigger size. Can you imagine how much they would charge for "maternity " belt??

I love the look of a skinny belt over the bump with an open cardigan, especially the open-front drapey ones. I never did it because the belt would just disappear under my boobs!

I just do a skinny belt that I owned pre-pregnancy above the bump (I have 2, a faux crocodile one and a metallic silver one). I haven't had to go up any notches from where I wore it pre-pregnancy either. I do it all the time with shirts that otherwise don't come in enough under the boobs/above the bump to add more definition. It definitely helps to accentuate the bump.
