Steal That Look, Forty Weeks Style: Naomi Watts at the Met's Costume Institute Gala

Here is what to keep in mind when stealing Naomi Watts' look Forty Weeks Style:
*Evening dressing during pregnancy is a fairly simple proposition – seek out flattering details (such as the perfect neckline) to take the look from basic black to bump-tastic!
*Long Story – if you go for full length, pay close attention to your hemline. Pregnant women (especially when I was one!) are no strangers to tripping. Hem to the correct length and remain aware of the full gown at your feet.
*Foot wear is key. A heel is a must-do and finding a comfortable one is job one! Spend some time finding the right combination of style and comfort. Feet prone to swelling will certainly expand during a night on the town.
*Skin is an accessory too! Exfoliate and tend to skin with rich oil or lotion (or a self tanner if you dare) to accentuate your glow.
*Go by the numbers. Estimate how many wears you will get out of an evening dress. If this is a one-time only dress (and you are a guest as opposed to the guest of honor) save your money. If you have a full season of functions and plan on wearing this item a great deal do splurge. Nothing feels (or looks) better than that “I feel pretty” energy.

A great option that won't break the bank is the Maternity Maxi Dress with Beads from JC Penney in black. It is an easy A-line with some funky detailing including wooden beads on the spaghetti straps. An empire waist drops to a delicate drape at the bump – very figure friendly. (left, $48 on sale)

For keeping your skin soft and supple I adore Basq! While this is a belly oil, I say go for it and use it generously on arms, legs and back! This lightly scented and highly addictive oil will leave your skin soft and glowing. Radiant and smooth skin is the perfect accessory for any great look and especially for evening glam. ($36)
