The 2021 back-to-work guide for mom-to-be

Le guide de la rentrée 2021 pour les futures mamans

Only a few days left before August comes to an end… (Do you also feel like summer went by way too fast?) The end of the holidays means it’s time to get back into the swing of things! So here are our best tips to help you get organised and motivated for the return to your routine.

Choose the Breton striped top

The Breton striped top is a timeless wardrobe essential! Got an appointment? Running late? Is the weather being temperamental? In collaboration with Armor Lux, a company based in Quimper renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, we created a collection of Breton striped T-shirts and dresses available in several colours. They will accompany you throughout your pregnancy and even afterwards thanks to their GOTS-certified organic cotton yarn. Soft and flexible, it helps you feel comfortable all day long. Wear the T-shirt with shorts or jeans, and the dress with or without tights (pssst, we have a lovely collection of maternity tights), trainers or heels. Working mums, you’ll quickly make it a wardrobe favourite!

Make time for a little exercise

To unwind after getting back into your routine, there’s nothing better than a gentle workout to relax. To support you, we created Woma, our Made in Portugal sportswear collection for pregnancy and breastfeeding, created from recycled fibres. Choose your favourite sports bra, your shorts or leggings, and you’re ready for a Pilates session! The Woma range is suitable for all kinds of activities. For example, @chloe_penderie wears the sports bra for mountain hikes after pregnancy, while @candicegavalon wears the bra and leggings for strength-training sessions during pregnancy. Don’t forget your water bottle to stay well hydrated, a little snack just in case, and most importantly… a friend to make it even more fun!

Remember to sleep and rest

Good-quality sleep, especially during pregnancy, is very important to help you recharge your batteries and feel ready to take on the day! To drift off in a cocoon of softness, you can choose the Milk collection, made from bamboo viscose: the maternity playsuit, practical thanks to its built-in bra and nursing clips (perfect for night feeds), or the nightdress, wonderfully soft and feminine with a tie belt that gently highlights your baby bump.

Feel beautiful

To start the year — or even just the day — on the right foot, we need to feel good in our clothes and feel beautiful to feel confident. Our choice? Our favourite outfit: the Origin maternity and nursing jumpsuit, made from soft Lyocell fibres, 100% Made in France. The tie belt gently highlights your baby bump, while the beautiful neckline offers easy access for breastfeeding. You can accessorise your outfit with a pretty pregnancy bola: gold, colourful, with tiny feet, bubbles or rhinestones — choose the chain to match your pendant and you’re ready for a great day!

Stay organised

To make September feel less overwhelming, get organised. Put things away (time to unpack those holiday suitcases), sort things out (your wardrobe and drawers), and use a calendar for important dates and appointments… You’ll feel much better and be able to enjoy your week feeling calm and stress-free! And if getting started feels difficult, put on some music — you’ll see, it can be a great motivation boost!

So, are you ready to get back into your routine?
