Much like her royal sister [1], Pippa Middleton excels at crafting a wardrobe that's on the one hand, inspiring, and on the other, still accessible. Her pregnancy look [2], not surprisingly, has been executed with the same girl-next-door appeal, a collection of Summer dresses and espadrilles that aren't over-the-top or out-of-reach, but more like your girlfriend who just happens to be impeccably dressed. Enter the expecting mother on a babymoon with husband James Matthews [3] in Italy. Pippa hit the beach in a classic suit you may have overlooked, swapping out the basic halter-style for trendier fare season after season — et voila! — a case for its comeback is made.
Whether you're pregnant or not, the silhouette's a flattering cut that we can all get behind. The neckline offers support, the bottoms offer coverage, and the red colour gives it just enough wow-factor. Need we say more?
