It's a fact that moms-to-be look forward to "sandal season" both to try the latest styles in spring shoes and summer fashions as well as for reasons of comfort. Pregnant ladies with swollen feet and ankles especially enjoy a pretty pedicure and the freedom that less constricting footwear offers.

Even in the third trimester when the blossoming baby bump blocks the view of your rosy toes; it helps to know that one of the few remaining skinny parts of our bodies is decked out in the latest fashion in shoes and nail polish.
Are Stilettos a Pregnancy No No?
Celebrities may rock the red carpet in sky-high heels but no matter how delicious the strappy sandals or how pumped the pumps; swollen feet puffing out the top, sides and between the straps is never a stylish look. If you must dress to impress for a few hours, a pair of dressy thongs with a wedge heel may be the best choice.
Flats are Fab
During the last few months, stability and safety are (almost?) as important as dressing in the height of fashion. When the pregnant belly is at its best; a pair of non-restrictive flats in bright colors will be kind to your swollen feet while keeping you ON your feet.
