Check is a hot trend at the moment but if you try to keep up with this trend with typical maternity retailers, you won’t find anything. Thankfully, you can always rely on high street heroes to keep up with trends in their maternity collections.

Maternity Puff Sleeve Shirt

If I was pregnant, I could see me in this collarless tartan shirt with a pair of skinny jeans, although wideleg and bootcut jeans are seriously back in fashion again. Glam it up a bit with a big, long chain.

£25 at TopShop Maternity

Dorothy Perkins Maternity Purple Check Shirt With varying purple hues and metallic threading for a slightly glamourous touch, this will look great in autumn and even comes recommended by Gok Wan (Is he everywhere or is it my imagination?). £22 at Dorothy Perkins in size 8-22. It also comes in a collared version (£25) with no ties on the sleeves and gathering at the sides for added fit.

This has more detail than the other shirts with the cute ruffles and an elasticated, ruched detail waist which could stop the whole breeze going up your bump thing… Excellent value and with some nice touches, it’s definitely the pick of the bunch.
£16 from New Look in sizes 8-18
