As a new mom, it’s important to take that extra five minutes, either in the morning or night, to add a little dose of glam to your life. ~ Rachel Zoe 

Tip 1. – Keep it Easy and Simple

Tip 2. – Functional During the Day

While chunky accessories and sky-high heels should be reserved for night, day should follow up with minimal jewelries and practical outfits. Zoe, who had stopped wearing her chunky jewels for a while (as her little Skyler could tug on), suggests to wear only such heavy accessories only when kids are away or you’re attending a party.

Tip 3. – Your outfits should give you Chic Comfort

Fashion should always come with comfort that ultimately enables confidence in the look. For the celebrity stylist, wide leg jeans offer her chic comfort – the bigger the bell the better. She loves to pair them with loose tank, a pair of wedges and a killer jacket to give the look some edge and glamour.

Tip 4. – A-line Dresses for New Moms

Zoe thinks A-line dresses are a fabulous addition to the 8 style tips for new moms. Anything A-line can create wonders to the look. If you want to go for short length then you can pick any style, else go for a dress with a bare neck that is always super sexy. Even an empire waist is great if you want to flaunt your belly (provided you’re back into shape).

Bonus Tip: Try something strapless or one shoulder if you want to show a little skin.

Tip 6. – Ballet flats or wedges

Say “NO” to your towering heels and stilettos. As most of the time, you’ll be carrying your baby; it’s wise to go for flats or platform heels.

Zoe suggests, “If you’re like me and still crave heels in your third trimester, keep your center of gravity in check in a great pair of wedges.”

And if you’re a flat shoe lover then go for a chic pair of either Lanvin or Balenciaga ballet flats.

Tip 7. – The Oversized Tote

Did you know when Grace Kelly was pregnant; she used to carry a huge Hermes bag to hide her baby bump? The bag became so synonymous with her name that the brand dedicated the bag to her and named it as ‘Kelly Bag’.

Well, post delivery you must be having problems with your waist. Pick an oversized tote that is not only stylish, but can hide you flaw areas gracefully.

Bonus tip:

A straw fedora or wide-brimmed hat and enormous sunnies are the final but most essential finishing touches — great for looking stylish but even better for hiding fatigue!
