Glamorous Mommy-to-be! – We met up with one of our favorite muses, Jennifer Murray, during the final months of her pregnancy to talk about fashion and becoming a mother. We think at 7 months, she’s still a knockout. Here’s what she had to say… benchwarmerscoffee

There have certainly been times throughout my pregnancy when glamour was the furthest thing from my mind, days when fatigue and discomfort reigned over fashion, or moments when I was so distracted by pending test results and wanting everything to be okay with my baby girl, that I couldn’t have cared less about what I was wearing. But, I’m happy to say that those spells have been few and far between. For the most part I’ve relished every stage of becoming a mother, and have celebrated all of the primal and geometric physical changes that are part of that. My blooming belly reminds me every single day to marvel at the gifts of the human body, to dress it up in beautiful silks and cozy wraps, and to share the joy of what’s happening beneath with pride and sophistication. Whether a mama-to-be hops on a flight to Paris with her partner for some romantic couple’s fun, or stays closer to home and soaks up the sights and sounds of her beloved neighborhood, why not do it in grand style? www.benchwarmerscoffee.com
