Christmas is just around the corner, and it's time to get your Christmas maternity outfit ready to help you get into the festive spirit! From casual Christmas events that just need a Christmas jumper to family parties and get-togethers that require something a bit dressier, we've got you covered!
We all want to look our best, especially around the holidays, but we know that Christmas time can be hard when you're pregnant. Maternity clothes have a reputation for being expensive and not the most stylish. But we're here to prove that doesn't have to be true and provide you with plenty of inspiration with some of the best maternity Christmas outfits to make you feel fabulous and festive!
Using some famous faces and household names as inspiration, we've compiled a list of some of the best maternity Christmas outfits that celebrities have worn. And then we've followed it up with where you can buy a similar maternity outfit yourself to celebrate the festive season in style!

Treat yourself to a maternity Christmas outfit
This year, why not gift yourself a new outfit for Christmas? When you're pregnant, you can feel a whirlwind of emotions, from excitement to a bit of nerves, and we know those hormones can keep you on a rollercoaster! We all like to treat our loved ones over the festive period, but why not treat yourself too?
Plus, we all know that your body can change in several ways when you're pregnant. One of the most exciting changes is getting to buy new maternity clothes, and we think Christmas time is one of the best times for this. We hope the list above with everything from casual outfits to fancier outfits for more formal events will give you plenty of inspiration for feeling festive and fab this Christmas!
Dressing for the festive season but not keen on buying anything new?
We know with a baby on the way, it might not feel like you’re able to treat yourself but don’t worry, you can still sparkle this festive season from what you already have in your wardrobe! So, if you're not keen on buying any new maternity clothes, then here are our top tips:
1. Wear a long cardigan with leggings and boots
2. Add a touch of Christmas cheer to your outfit with an oversized scarf, earrings, or necklace
3. Consider wearing festive colours like green, red, or white
4. Keep your makeup simple by highlighting your eyes and lips in neutral tones
5. Pair your favourite maternity jeans with a dressier top
6. Dress up any outfit with some sparkle. For example, add some sequins, even if it's just a little shawl and add some festive jewellery into the mix.
