The maternity wardrobe is a tricky entity. You want to look good, but you also don't want to spend a fortune on clothes you'll only fit into for less than nine months. A great solution to this fashion dilemma is to bulk up on your accessories. Buy some better basics and then switch up your look with a few great extras.
We took this Cap Sleeve dress from Top Shop and dressed it up, down and out using accessories you may already have lurking in your prebaby closet.

With a fun scarf, strappy sandals and a canvas bag, you're ready to hit all the backyard cookouts and girls days out you can handle.
