I don’t know which I’m more excited about… the upcoming presidential election or the launch of Van Linsey’s sophomore season. Okay, I guess the candidates win that contest, but I’m still thrilled about showing off my new designs!
This spring, pregnant ladies will finally have something to wear on the golf course! Hooray! (And about time!) Midway through sample production for Collection ‘09 I found out I was prego for the third time. Recalling my wardrobe frustrations during golf seasons of pregnancies past, I decided to detour and design a few maternity pieces. The styles are basic, stretchy, easy, and hip. Here’s the story of its (ahem) conception…
I dragged out my clubs in May when I was 2 months along and not showing yet. I wore VL maternity tops and pants from the get-go. They looked great even when my stomach was still flat. As my belly grew, the jersey stretched along with me and looked super cute. So I guess rather than calling them maternity clothes you can call them “transitional” clothes.
You can see in the picture below that both the model and I are wearing the same top - literally, she took off the sample and I threw it on, then my fab photog Becca Bousquet “photoshopped” us together. The stripey boatneck top is rayon jersey - black and jade with little silver slivers. This top also comes with berry and black stripes. I love this top. It makes me happy. 
I (the preggy on the right) am wearing the transitional jersey golf capris. They have a wide fold down waist band so you can wear them high or low, and they are super comfy.
Seriously, anyone can wear these transitional jersey pieces. So even if you’re not pregnant, try it!
The other addition for spring is a maternity cut of the Warmest Fleece. This is a must-have for a chilly day on the course… or any day. The weather is getting chilly here in Boston and I’ve been LOVING my coral fleece. I’ve been wearing it almost every day. My husband Michael calls it my “slimming outfit”. (Har har.) It looks like this (but bigger ).
Call me if you want to place an order. Fleeces are available now. The rest of the collection will be ready to ship in March. I’ve already started a waiting list so please let me know if you’d like to sign on early. 781.369.4144 or vanessa@vanlinsey.com.
And don’t forget to vote on Tuesday!
Smiles,
Vanessa
