Want to keep your hipster creds during pregnancy?

By Kathryn McRitchie

Want to keep your hipster creds during pregnancy? Take a page from the just-released Rock Star Momma: The Hip Guide to Looking Gorgeous Through All Nine Months and Beyond (Atria) by Skye Hoppus, founder of the maternity- and baby-wear line Childish Clothing. Her tips:
• Find T-shirts in fitted, longer styles. A body-hugging shape accentuates your bump, creating the illusion of slenderness everywhere else.
• Buy maternity jeans that contain 2 percent to 8 percent Lycra. They'll fit great and grow with you.
• Look for tops with middle or side shirring. Unlike pleats, shirring is flattering, sexy and wrinkle-resistant.
