Maternity / family pictures

Who wants to dress my family for pictures at the end of the month?!

I tend towards blues, greens and purples... But we did blues for our last photo shoot. I thought Lilly and me in pink, Jeff and Ryan in dark gray. But now I need pink!

Do I do a dress, skirt or capris and top?! I should probably start now for me, the kids and Jeff should be easier.

I think you should do a pink maxi skirt and a white wrap around top. I love maternity wrap tops, they are so cute. They didnt have cute stuff 12 years ago like they do now. I also love maxi skirts on the pregnants. The more fitted top will accentuate and draw more attention to the belly. Plus they are super comfy and I love seeing pregnant ladies looking comfortable because lets face facts here, being pregnant is not always comforable. At least your clothes should be.

We did gray and navy last time. Lil's shirt had gray and pink- it was cute. Picking outfits for family pictures is THE hardest thing!

I do love the one maxi skirt I got! Old Navy has a gray and white one. I think purple top might be easier for me to find, I'm not finding pink that's not hot pink. I'm so scared to wear white, I'm so messy.

What defines a wrap top?

@queensteph17‌ - seriously, I hate coordinating everyone. But the end result is priceless. I can't believe it's been 3 years since our last family pictures!

I like the pink and gray idea. But, I think I am having déjà vu. Didn't we already find a pink dress for a pregnant woman to wear??? :P

Can you guys see what I posted? It's being all crazy on my screen...

It is weird on my screen too, . The picture of the dress is behind all the text.

I like that dress! I agree the more fitted the top the better. We did maternity pics and I wore a maxi dress and I hated it! All the pics show no belly just make me look large...definitely think belly showing is much cuter! We've never done a family pic...I can't even begin to think about coordinating!

I just got my old Navy order last night! What do you think?

LOVE the skirt and shirt. I agree with Erin....I'm afraid to show the belly you'd have to hold under your belly in all the pics. In person it'd be cute, but maybe hard to tell in pictures.

In my maternity pictures I wore a white shirt...and I looked like an egg. Especially if I was sitting...then I looked like humpty dumpty.

mana8503 · July 2014

I'm wondering if I need a top that goes in under the boobs more.. If that makes sense. The shirt does goes tighter at the bottom.

@queensteph17 - I can't imagine you looking any less than perfect! I'm sure you didn't look like an egg or humpty dumpty!

uderin02 · July 2014

I really like the outfit you picked! I understand what you're saying about tighter under the boobs, but I like that one that you have if you don't find one!

Haha my mom loves the top, eh on the skirt. She wants me to wear capris, and get Lilly a pink dress with a design. She thinks the stripes will be too much if Lilly has a design too.

You look adorable! I sort of agree with your mom though. I think the capris might look better depending on what you get for Lilly. When we did our maternity pictures, I wore a shirt with a little belt above my belly to define it more so I looked pregnant and not just large.

Yeah, I agree with this. Maybe have both handy so you can pick after you get Lilly's dress?
