Prerna’s Personal Journey

As a soon-to-be mother of two, I found myself facing the familiar challenge of maintaining my personal style while accommodating a growing bump and the demands of an active toddler. Like many, I'm not the biggest fan of traditional maternity wear. This time around, I discovered that the key to feeling confident and put-together lay not in a completely new wardrobe, but in the power of accessories – specifically, our timeless pieces from Sethi Couture.

Simplicity Meets Elegance

My approach to maternity style was all about simplicity especially being pregnant during the summer. I opted for comfortable, versatile basics that could withstand the rigors of chasing after a toddler while still looking presentable for meetings, lunch dates. Think soft, flowy fabrics in neutral colors – pieces that could easily transition from day care pickup, to work meetings, and then to the playground.

But here's what I found most important: I elevated these simple outfits with carefully chosen Sethi Couture jewelry. A pair of Enchanted Garden Triple Flower White Diamond Earrings or the Madison White Diamond Necklace instantly transformed a basic tee and linen trousers into something special. These pieces became my secret weapon for feeling dressed up and ready to face the day, no matter what it might bring.

The Power of Accessories

During pregnancy, our bodies are constantly changing, and it can be challenging to feel like yourself. This is where Elevating the Everyday with Sethi Couture truly shined for me. The classic, timeless pieces allowed me to maintain my sense of style without the need for an entirely new maternity wardrobe.

Some of my favorite go-to pieces included:

  • Delicate layered necklaces that drew attention to my face and added a touch of sparkle
  • Stacking rings that I could adjust as my fingers swelled, I rotated between two fingers!
  • Statement earrings that made even the simplest ponytail look intentional and chic

Practical Yet Polished

With a toddler in tow, practicality was key. I needed jewelry that could withstand sticky fingers and impromptu naps. Our pieces proved to be as durable as they are beautiful. The high-quality craftsmanship meant I could wear them confidently, knowing they could handle whatever my active lifestyle threw at them.

A New Chapter

Our baby boy arrived in August, ushering in a new era for our family of four. As we navigate these precious early days, I find myself reaching for my Sethi Couture pieces more than ever. They're not just accessories; they're little moments of luxury in the beautiful chaos of new motherhood.

Whether I'm up for a midnight feeding or heading out for our doctor’s appointment, these timeless pieces help me feel like myself – a new version of myself, evolving and growing just like our family.

To all the expectant and new mothers out there: remember that style during this time is about what makes you feel confident and comfortable. For me, it is the simple combination of comfortable basics and exquisite Sethi Couture jewelry. Find what works for you, and embrace this beautiful, transformative journey.
