I wish I had invented blue jeans. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity – all I hope for in my clothes.

For the last few weeks
I have been pretty much living
In maternity denim
From Jo Jo Maman Bebe
Can you believe that until last month
I had never before worn maternity jeans
Or dungarees
What a mistake I have made!
Especially with the dungarees
They are so comfortable
So easy to wear
And surprisingly flattering too
As the seasons change
And the sun begins to shine
As a stepping stone from leggings and jumpers
To pretty floral dresses
Dungarees and denim are the thing to wear
I am seriously going to miss these dungarees
When I am not pregnant anymore
These midwash denim dungarees
Are easy to wear
To dress up and down
The legs are long and skinny
They look great worn at full length
Or turned up
They look great with converse
Or sandals
And with my favourite spring shoes, Toms
The dungarees are fully adjustable
So that they can grow with your bump
And can be worn after birth
As they have easy access for feeding
I love these dungarees
And always feel comfy and confident while wearing them
They have become like a pregnancy companion
And I will miss them when they can no longer be worn
I have also been testing out some cropped maternity jeans
These I have found look good but are not so comfortable to wear
I tend to save these for social occasions
When I want to look informal but nice
They are lovely with a stripe tee
Or a floral blouse
And again look great with Toms
I love the wide leg
And the super soft bump band
Can be worn over or under the bump
Offering comfort and support
The third maternity denim item from Jo Jo
I have been testing
Is a pair of super soft maternity skinny jeans
These are actually soft cotton twill rather than denim
They are lovely and comfy to wear
And have a large soft bump band
These skinnies are easy to wear
Can be dressed up or down
And they wash really really well
I am finding myself wearing them again and again
As the weather warms up
I would not wear them so much in the winter
As for me they are not quite skinny enough to wear with boots
They are much better suited to sandals, pumps and trainers
I am so grateful to Jo Jo Maman Bebe
For letting me test out these three products
I still feel that 4 weeks away from having my fifth and final baby
I have still not found the perfect denim leggings or skinnies
But I have definitely fallen in love with denim dungarees
And am so sad to have only discovered them now
If you have been wondering whether to buy yourself some maternity dungarees
Do it
You will never ever look back
And if you are wondering where to buy them from
Well, Jo Jo is a great place to start
They have some super cute short ones for the summer!
I was sent these three items in exchange for an honest review
