Expectant mom Blake Lively is having fun dressing up her growing bump. A lot of fun.
The 28-year-old actress kicked off the press tour for her new film The Shallows this week by modeling no less than ten different maternity outfits in a mere two days. From a miniskirt to a cocktail dress, a sexy little black dress to a patent leather bustier, there seems to be no look too bold for Blake.
The former Gossip Girl star and her husband Ryan Reynolds are already parents to 1 1/2-year-old daughter James, and though they didn’t make an official pregnancy announcement this time around, the happy news seems quite clear.
Here are some of Blake’s most memorable styles from her pregnancy so far. Which do you like best?

A jean jacket with a ballgown? A hoody with couture? She manages to pull it off, though.
Blake’s maternity style doesn’t exactly resemble my own – swap those stilettos for a pair of swollen feet-friendly flip flops and we’d be a whole lot closer – but I love the fact that she’s having fun with it. My wardrobe when I was pregnant was pathetically uninspired. I basically rotated through the same four or five stretchy shirts, one skirt, one dress and two pairs of pants (I was ready to burn those damn pants in a backyard bonfire by the end of my third trimester!).
Having a style team and racks of high end designer clothes at your disposal no doubt helps. Even so, I wish I’d taken a cue from her colorful, creative style. Before you know it your baby is here and that beautiful bump is gone (and believe me, the sort of squishy pouch that sits in its place presents a whole new wardrobe challenge!).
