Sporting Summer Event Dressing & Celebs in Seraphine Styles

This summer, the sporting social events calendar is bursting at the seams with races, events, games and matches – We’ve already had Royal Ascot and Polo in the Park, The World Cup is heating up in Brazil, the tennis at Wimbledon is in full swing and it’s looking like this weekend will be a beautiful one for the Henley Regatta! But whether you’re glued to the tennis, the football, neither or both, there’s no denying that a good summer sporting event is a great place for a bit of sneaky style spotting! With the crowds milling about, and tiered seating in the stands providing a bird’s eye view, there are bound to be a few stand out styles to catch your eye.

 

For a fashionable sporting occasion like Royal Ascot or a Polo match, we suggest a designer maternity dress like those in the Seraphine Luxe collection. You could opt for lace with our Navy Lace Maternity Cocktail Dress, or choose something sensational in silk like our Black Textured Silk Maternity Cocktail Dress. For a less formal sporting event, you can’t go wrong with a stylish maternity maxi dress! These flattering full length dresses skim gently over your curves to maximize your figure and allow plenty of room to move and grow.

 

Over the past weeks we’ve spotted some seriously stylish celebrity mums-to-be wearing Seraphine to some of the biggest sporting events of the season, and nailing their maternity style! Here are a few of our favourite looks:

 

Claire Sweeney’s Ascot Style

Beautiful TV star Claire Sweeney, who is relishing her surprise post-breakup pregnancy, looked ultra chic in our exquisite Round Neck Ivory Lace Maternity Dress to enjoy some high octane racing at Royal Ascot. The most fashionable event on the sporting calendar, this is the place to see and be seen – and Claire looked every bit the high society fashionista in her lacy LUXE collection dress! She styled the dress with strappy sandals and a fabulous grey embellished hat for an on trend monochrome look that ticked all the right fashion boxes for the prestigious royal races.

Former Girls Aloud singer and expectant mum Kimberley Walsh looked ultra glamorous in our Black Knot Front Maternity Maxi Dress to watch Nadal dominate the centre court on the second day of Wimbledon! She teamed the dress with dark sunglasses and a quilted black Chanel bag, and brightened up the look with a stylish slick of red lipstick.

Jessica Ennis Hill Talks Pregnancy, Training and Living for Sport

Inspirational athlete and mum-to-be Jessica Ennis-Hill appeared on Sky Sports this week, talking about pregnancy, training and her plans for a come back at the 2016 Rio Olympics! Jessica, her husband Andy and their chocolate Labrador Myla are expecting a new addition to their family very soon!

 

The Olympic Heptathlon champion has kept up her training throughout her pregnancy, though she admits she’s easing it off now that she’s into the later stages – opting for regular gentle swimming, cycling and running sessions. Some women are wary of doing too much exercise during pregnancy, but if like Jessica, you are used to an active lifestyle, carrying on with your regular routine won’t hurt you or your baby. Just as long as you are sensible and listen to your body’s signals, it can actually be incredibly beneficial.

Staying active certainly doesn’t seem to have done Jessica any harm! She looked fantastic on screen, showing off her radiant pregnancy glow in our Black Knot Front Maternity Top, which she accessorised with a chunky statement necklace.

She was there as a judge for Sky Sports’ Living for Sport Awards. Jessica and her fellow sports stars David Beckham, world champion boxer Katie Taylor and Olympic sprinter Darren Campbell are acting as ambassadors for the programme, which is working with schools to encourage teenagers to try new sports. Campbell explains the programme’s aim:

“We’re using sport stars and sport skills to improve the lives of thousands of young people.

Sport helps people think, helps people listen, helps people to speak up and helps people work together.  Different sports inspire different people but one thing is true: there’s a sport for everyone and it can change your life.”

This seems like good advice for all of us – not just kids in school!

If you are planning to get active during your pregnancy, make sure you have a few good pairs of maternity leggings. International super model and mum-to-be Doutzen Kroes chose our  Bamboo Maternity Leggings for her pre-natal ballet classes – they are made in an ultra soft fabric designed to support your new curves and keep you cool, wicking away sweat. And why not hit the pool for a few laps or a fun aqua-aerobics class in our Black Racer Back Swimsuit!

 

So don’t be afraid to get outside and get active – a good workout is guaranteed to raise your energy levels and boost your mood!
