Oh, Baby!

As I’m sure everyone knows by now, Jessica Simpson has finally birthed her daughter, Maxwell Drew. Yes there was only one…Really. Her pregnancy inspired a thought for her fashion-driven mind, resulting in a new Jessica Simpson maternity line “due” this Fall. The line and is expected to stock the shelves of 700 stores at its release including Destination Maternity, Motherhood Maternity and Destination Maternity shops within Macy’s.
“I’m [happy] to partner with Destination Maternity to design a collection of fashionable styles that make you look and feel great,” Simpson told reporters. “You want to wear clothes that are flattering to your baby bump; you want to show your bump off.” If you’ve watched Fashion Star or caught a glimpse of the dozens of magazine covers, you’ve seen Simpson in plenty of leggings, Jersey knit dresses or loose-fitting tops and her line is expected to carry just that and more. The line is said to be “designed with a vintage Seventies feel,” but still contemporary fashion at a decent price. Bottoms retail from $36 to $59 for printed and sateen denim. Knit tops are $36, dresses and blouses are $59 and sweaters and capes are $69.
Simpson is benefiting nicely from her pregnancy. In addition to her new clothing line, she is rumored to be partnering with Weight Watchers due to her famous extra pregnancy pounds and is looking to shed them soon. To top it off, Jess has just signed an $800,000 deal with People magazine for first photos of Maxwell Drew. Mommy’s doing well! We wish her the best in all her endeavors.
