Let’s be honest, you’re usually far too busy nesting and packing your hospital bag to think about what how you’ll nail your Scandi maternity style. You’ll have heard the tips about button up shirts (skin-to-skin is so important in the fourth trimester) but you may be a little less familiar with tips like “forget your underwire bras” or “make sure you can walk for hours in your shoes”. Yep, those tend to come after you’ve learnt your lesson, at least in the very early days. So to make things easier, we took a look at our style inspo mamas over in Europe, because they just seem to know how to make everything look so effortlessly easy.
Topics
The Scandi maternity style turtleneck and jeans
Cold weather calls for soft, cozy knits that you can rug up with a wool coat or roll the sleeves up when indoors. Pair with a cute beanie and wide leg jeans. Euro mamas love Ugg boots and therefore we do too. Check out the Taz for extra interest.

All black and Sambas
Is this the world’s most popular shoe? Not only is it well priced but it’s super comfortable. The Samba looks like a narrow shoe but it fits wide feet too, which makes it a great choice for swollen mama feet. Pair with simple black sweatsuit and stylish crossbody bag and let the shoes do the talking.

Jeans, New Balance and leather jacket
NBs are going nowhere. Why? They are SO comfy. I mean, they’re dad runners so they’re made for walking long distances—and getting to the airport super early. We love this oversize look with a pleather/vegan blazer and simple feeding tank.

Winter puffer, straight leg jeans and Uggs
Snug as a bug in a rug. This is such a cute look for the ultimate comfort.
Soft pink tunic dress
Even Scandi girls like pink. This soft, gentle hue in a rich linen is luxurious and feminine without being overpowering.
Neutral, grey and textures for ultra Scandi maternity style
One of our fave inspo accounts for mama style is @joanasno, a German creator with an adorable boy. Joana pairs neutrals with luxe accessories, splashes of blacks and high quality fabrics for her take on Scandi maternity style. We’re now following her mama style daily!
