As ever, Mamas & Papas have come up trumps with a versatile maternitywear collection with lots to appeal to every pregnant woman's taste, style and pocket. There are wonderful pieces that add a touch of designer glamour for work or leisure time, floaty numbers to ensure you don't lose your sense of feminity as that bump grows, and some funky, simple separates to make daily pregnant life a pleasure rather than a wardrobe nightmare!

The boho casual look
There are some great tops in the selection for autumn '08 that allow you to feel pretty and comfortable.
We especially like the Funnel Neck Cardigan (£35) which gives you shape and movement without hanging too bulkily over your body. Also in this laidback range is the Stripe Wrap Cardigan (£35) which looks good on its own matched with a skirt or trousers for evening, or over a shirt or long-sleeve top for daywear.
For lighter daywear separates, try the 'Grandad' look which evokes easy '70s lounging… The Grandad Babydoll top is £25 and sits coolly on top of your bump whilst still giving you your own shape. There is also the Stripe Grandad Shirt (£30) in cream for an understated elegance.
Or try the Grandad Shirt (£28) with a simple black camisole base (£8), the Knitted Waistcoat (£25) for shape, and Black City Shorts (£30) with tights and boots - a stunning casual look.
To go with the wide range of M&P denim options, you could add a touch of simple drama with the Batwing Tunic (£35).

Cool class
As always, M&P have thought of the smart end of your wardrobe too.
For something comfortable but versatile, try the ensemble of the Scoop-Neck Top (£18), Grandad Cardigan (£40) and the subtle, patterned Print A-line Skirt (£30).
The cool chic of the Print Tunic (£35) or the Printed Square Neck Top (£35) will look great in meetings or at a party and the shape will last you from smaller bump to major baby tum-tum!

Feeling feminine
For casual girly fun, check out the gorgeous prints of the Ditsy Dress (£35) and the Printed Dress (£40) which look great with leggings or tights.
And of course there are times when you want to feel all-out girly, and for this, the elegant simplicity of the black Jersey Dress (£35) can't be beat.
