MWFB: Bloom Maternity Review & Giveaway

Towards the end of my pregnancy, it was heartbreaking to discover that my ever expanding belly had outgrown 90% of my maternity clothes and caused my maternity wardrobe to greatly diminish. And with the end of my pregnancy so near at that point, I really couldn't justify buying more maternity clothes that I would only be able to wear for such a short amount of time. So, I was more than thrilled when I stumbled across Bloom Maternity, an online shop that carries a wonderful selection of maternity clothing -- and even pieces that can be worn during and after pregnancy! They offer clothing in a wide variety of styles and sizes -- as they do say, "No matter what your size, you deserve to look and feel beautiful while your body is in Bloom — and beyond!"

My Thoughts!
I was sent the d&a Eat You Up Top by Japanese Weekend from Bloom Maternity. This top, which is as versatile as it is cute, is designed to fit during pregnancy and still look great after! While pregnant, I found many of my other maternity tops become too short, but this top's length was really nice and covered my baby bump well. The top's cinched sides are very flattering (both during pregnancy and after), and the multicolored pixelated print and square neckline makes it unique. Not only does it look great post-baby bump as well, but it's really convenient for nursing, too. This stylish top is also very soft and comfortable (made out of 95% Polyester and 5% Spandex), which is key these days.





Here I am wearing the top @ 38 weeks pregnant:


And here's me in the top just recently:

As mentioned above, you'll find a ton of fashionable maternity and nursing clothing at Bloom Maternity, but that's not all! You can also purchase baby gear and essentials, gifts, and more!
