Worst-Dressed Bellies? Top 5 Maternity Wear Mistakes Of Spring/Summer 2008

HerBadMother — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:26:00 GMT

Look, I know how difficult it is to get one's self dressed in anything other than yoga pants when pregnant. But still - just because it's difficult doesn't mean that it's impossible. And if you're a celebrity with a team of stylists and a fashion budget that dwarfs what most people spend on their houses? Well, there's just no excuse.

Disagree with me if you like, but here are my picks for worst-dressed bellies of the last few months:

1. Minnie Driver's Peekaboo Polka Dots:

It's a pretty dress, for sure, and I love the polka dots. But it's see-through. And? I think that maybe, maybe, she is not wearing any underwear. One word: chafing. You pregnant and formerly pregnant ladies know what I'm talking about. I don't care how pretty your dress is: chafing makes you walk funny, and that's not so hot.

2. Gwen Stefani's Sari/Caftan/Bathrobe Thingy:

I'm gonna get disagreement on this one, I know, but still - the Eastern-influenced pajamas slash bedsheet look just doesn't work, in my opinion, on women with massive child-swollen bellies (or anyone, really, but that's another post). This looks like something that Mrs. Roper would wear. Gwen Stefani is a style icon, yes, I know. But just because Gwen Stefani's wearing it doesn't make it attractive.

3. Ashlee Simpson's Goth Preggo Look:

Ugh. I mean, not only is it sloppy-looking, it looks uncomfortable. Is she not sweltering? Does she not get her legs caught in the skirt? And don't get me started on the vomit-colored granny hat. FUG.

4. Jamie Lynn Spears' Sweats and Shorts:

This is basically what I wore throughout my pregnancy, if you substitute the shorts for yoga pants and take the self-esteem-subversive message off of the shirt. It's comfortable, for sure. But that doesn't mean that it's a good look. It's not. But I could forgive it - if only on the basis of its familiarity - were it not for the stupid, self-mocking slogan on the back. Is she being ironic? Does she knew what irony means? The whole thing confuses me.

5. Angelina's Scorpion Tent Dress

This dress just scares me. I mean, that whole tent look, for starters, is just a bit weird looking, especially on a woman with such slender legs, but more than that, it's the print. What are those things? Sinister insect creatures emerging from (or attacking?) some vagina-like plant thingy? Disturbing. Seriously.

Agree? Disagree? Other nominations?

Jamie Lynn Spears' Baby Is Casey Aldridge Meal Ticket

Looks like Casey Aldridge wants a piece of the pie, and he's anxious to marry Jamie Lynn in order to get it. Well, obviously he already had himself a piece, which is what got Jamie Lynn in trouble in the first place. But now Aldridge is reportedly in a hurry to tie the knot in order to share in the big bucks that will be coming Jamie Lynn's way once she sells her baby pictures.

Jamie Lynn gave birth to Maddie Briann this morning and now many are speculating how long before the 17-year old new mom and her 19-year-old baby daddy tie the knot. It was rumored that Aldridge had wanted a quickie wedding while Spears was still pregnant, but obviously he missed the boat on that one.

While there isn't definitive word on who will have exclusive rights to the first peek at little Maddie, odds are pointing to OK! Magazine, who scored big when they were the first to announce Jamie Lynn's pregnancy.

Whatever the case, expect Casey Aldridge to be first in line at that gravy train.
