nuka sweatsYou know how smarter, calmer people are always giving great insight like enjoy the little things in life.  I have been working on that and getting better about picking out those seconds in the day when I perk up.   One of my favorite “little things” is that first moment of putting on my most comfy sweats after a long day at work.  I am lucky that I get to wear jeans and flats everyday to my job, but there is still nothing like throwing on something cozy, it draws the line at end of another day and beginning of the evening when things start to slow down around my house.  I am actually so guilty of wearing my coordinated sweats, much like a uniform, that there was a time my husband swore I invented Juicy Sweats, when I said “yeah so where are our millions” he stared perplexed, unable to believe other women feel wildly colored sweat bottoms and tops are the best invention since designer denim.  Men.

All this talk about cozy sweats and you are probably wondering how I can spin this into a fashion tip, but you have to know that even sweats are important.  You cannot go running around in some ratty old things circa 1990 or worse yet, you Pregnant Girls know who you are, wearing your husband’s sweats as yours get a little tighter in places you would prefer to deny.

Not to worry, I have a solution for my fashionable pregnant friends.  Nuka maternity’s Julie Noik is the new it designernukahoodiefor comfortable and cozy maternity essentials.  She designed a v-neck short sleeve hoodie (pictured) that is a complete life saver.  You can layer it over a long sleeve tee for extra warmth or wear alone and pair with your favorite maternity denim.  The options are endless and every piece in her collection is this fabulous and versatile.  Best of all, the extra soft fabrics will hug your belly for a most flattering fit.  Her pieces are all hand dyed so each item looks special and brings that much more style to her comfortable and easy to wear designs.  So much multi-tasking from one amazing designer.  Of course she is a woman, who else could pull all that off and still have time to be mom.

This week we are giving away a NukaPullover Hoodie and Loop Terry Pants.  That way you can have your own set of stylish sweats to wear day and night.  The giveaway includes the look pictured in the first image and seen on Nuka’s website.  Each piece is made from super soft modal and can be machine washed.

I know you are just itching to win and it is so easy, we just want to get to know our readers.  Are you pregnant, trying, how did you find us and what can we do on Hormones to keep you coming back?  Please leave a comment and forward our blog to just one friend who might enjoy it as much as you do (that one is on the honor system).  Winner announced next Thursday, November 19.

    Oh my, comfy sweats are just about the best tip anyone could EVER give a pregnant girl! Towards the end the will become so loved too. These tips just keep getting better, and I love that you use actual brand references- it makes it so much easier to purchase when you can trust that you are getting a great product even if you haven’t seen it in person. These sweats and cute top look like the perfect end of pregnancy and into post baby life (when we all need just a little extra room!). Keep on blogging!

    I want to win these for my sister. She is pregnant right now and recently laid off, I read your blog because I am trying to get pregnant right now, keeping my fingers crossed!

  • Michelle says:

    ahhhh anything comfy is great! You don’t even need to be preggers to love comfort! My sweats come on the minute I walk in the door from work! These outfits are adorable! Very chic!

  • Chloe says:

    I emailed your blog to my 4 close friends who are also pregnant, we are having so much fun comparing everything we love and hate about being pregnant. Your blog is so fun to read so I added it to our list of LOVES!

    And who can pass up cozy maternity clothes, these sweats look just like something I would wear.

  • Alison says:

    Pregnant with #2, I have popped out way, way faster than with the first. I am definitely in need of maternity clothes at only 11 weeks already! It makes you feel so much more beautiful when you can look stylish in cute clothes.

  • amy robillard says:

    great post steph! being comfy while pregnat and looking cute at the same time can be annoying. i wish i could wear my husbands sweats sometimes but he is a foot taller than me. does not work.

  • Kari says:

    I normally wish people would not wear sweats in public, so sloppy, but these don’t even seem to go into the category of sweats. They are so cute you could wear them practically anywhere.

  • Guin says:

    Such cute “sweats” (if you can even call them that). Lounge wear is a must for me at home after work and I can’t even imagine my frustration when the ones I have no longer fit from a pregnant belly! Stylish and comfy are sucha great combo so I would love to win them.

    Currently trying to concieve my first (my honey’s third) little miracle. I found you on Top Mommy Blogs and absolutely loved your blog. Keep up the great tips and humor and you’ll keep me coming back!

  • fokxxy says:

    Totally trying to get preggers as we speak.. I just need more practice :)

    This looks like the most comfortable outfit!! Wow! I wanna be pregnant now just so I can wear it!!!

  • PML says:

    OHHH, I would love to win this outfit. I am five months along and finding comfort very hard since I am pregnant with twins. I really enjoy the fashion tips, any hints for moms pregnant with multiples?

  • Tina says:

    Like you, I adore my Juicy sweats, but am not so sure I want to splurge on a maternity pair. My old ones fit, but I think I only have a few more weeks. I would love to win these, it might be nice to find a new brand to keep me covered while I am pregnant.

  • heather... says:

    That sweat suit is the cutest thing ever and I am drooling over it! I found your contest on twitter. I am entering my 28th week, which is how far along I was when I had my first child, so I don’t have much that still fits in the way of maternity wear. This sweat suit would really come in handy!

  • Jodi says:

    I already have 3 kids and I am having my last. I have not wanted to shop much to go around since I am so done being pregnant. With 3 others to drive to and from school and sports a sweatsuit like this would be ideal.

    I found your blog through my sister in law, she loves it and swears it makes her laugh, I look forward to visiting back regularly.

  • Hello,
    I found your contest on facebook. I searched “I hate my hormones” because I am 29 weeks pregnant, and find often that my hormones inconvinience me. I enjoy this site very much, and am lacking in cute looking maternity clothes! So I could always use a super adorable maternity outfit!
