The gorgeous and talented Grammy award winning artist Alicia Keys is expecting her first child with handsome hubby Swizz Beatz this December! Her impeccable and unique style is always exciting to see, whether she is on the red carpet or out and about town. For the past few months we have been keeping a close eye on her pregnancy fashion. From her Mediterranean wedding to jet setting at the airport, her clothing choices have been stunning. As her due date nears, we look forward to seeing even more stylish options to show off her growing baby bump!

In June of this year, Alicia and her hubby (fiancé at the time!) flew to South Africa to watch the World Cup. I am always on the lookout for great airport and traveling outfits, and so I was very excited to see her comfy chunky sweater paired with a cute v-neck tee. Traveling is all about achieving a high level of comfort while maintaining a cute and relaxed style. Like Alicia, pairing a cozy sweater with a lightweight t-shirt is a great option because it allows one to add or remove layers as temperatures in airports and planes change. For a similar look try the Maternity Baby Tee from Shade Maternity. Made of a lightweight cotton and spandex blend, it is super soft and stretchy. Cut extra along to allow room for your baby bump to grow, it is available in a variety of beautiful colors. When paired with a great knit sweater, such as the Cozy Sweater from Juliet Dream, a comfy yet stylish look is created. To finish off this casual look, a great pair of jeans is a good choice. Maternal America's Megan Blue Jean is a very popular option, as it features a flattering boot cut style and a stylish stretchy waist band. With a cute casual look like this, you will be a comfy and stylish jetsetter!

If your traveling destination of choice is tropical, you will definitely need a gorgeous swimsuit to wear. On their tropical getaway this year to the Mediterranean, Alicia sported a super sexy bikini. The solid print with gold hardware was a beautiful option for her, as hardware and embellishments are a hot trend this season. For a similar option try the Maternity Bikini from Prego. Coming in both black and brown, the center of the bust is accented by a plastic oval which is both stylish and flattering. The padded halter top is adjustable which is a great option as it allows the swimsuit to be adjusted as your belly bump grows. As Alicia demonstrates, bikinis are both sexy and functional.

This June, Alicia attended the BET awards where she absolutely rocked the stage during her performance! Beforehand on the red carpet she was equally as amazing in a white full length gown with a gorgeous embellished gold neckline. With statement necklaces being so popular this season, an embellished neckline is great option. It is stylish and stunning, and creates a beautiful frame for your face. The Embellished Dress from Maternal America is a striking option for an evening out or any upcoming holiday parties. The beautifully beaded neckline is the focal point for this super flattering and comfortable dress, which is sure to be a huge hit! If you are looking for a gown, the new Gold Band Maxi Dress is a gorgeous option. Also from Maternal America, the gold straps at the neck and bust line draw the eyes upwards and creates an eye-catching look. Pair it with gold heels and some great bangles, and you have a red carpet worthy look!

Whether rushing through airports, relaxing at the beach, or rocking the red carpet, Alicia Keys truly has a stylish yet comfortable pregnancy fashion. As her due date nears, we look forward to seeing her beautiful baby and her other gorgeous pregnancy looks!
