#AerieREAL Role Model Iskra has been loving Aerie all throughout her pregnancy! Read on to see which pieces she’s loving on her journey into motherhood and why you will, too.

What Aerie loves are you wearing that are keeping you (& your bump!) comfy & supported?
Almost every day I am in one of my Chill Twist Front Bralettes and a pair of Real Me Bike Shorts. I have been going on daily walks around my neighborhood to get the baby ready to enter the world! With the weather near me being warmer, I always NEED a good Real Me Bike Short to keep me cool and comfy while walking. For chilling around the house/on the couch, I’m for SURE in my Sunwashed Desert Hoodie/Jogger set.

How does each piece make you feel? Why is it special? What about it makes you feel that way?
The Real Me Wrap Bike Shorts are my favorite for long walks because I can move comfortably. The crossover/wrap on the front has let my bump grow and I’ve been wearing them all throughout pregnancy. They are also super lightweight so when it gets hot, I still feel cool and comfortable. In the Sunwashed Desert Hoodie/Jogger Set, I still feel like I can move around freely and accomplish all of my tasks without feeling held down by a heavy sweatsuit.

What comfy advice do you have for the Aerie fam? Aka: what’s your secret ingredient to coziness & how are you staying comfy-cozy at home right now?
When setting up your living room or bedroom oasis, I make sure to have a few key things! Firstly, I always have weighted blankets handy for a comforting snuggle on the couch. My bed has lots of pillows and I always sleep with an eye mask on to create the ideal sleeping condition. Lastly, having a humidifier in my bedroom helps with SO many different parts of sleep and relaxation. The one I have purifies the air, supports my breathing, and helps moisturize my skin so it doesn’t dry out over night.

Yess! Always loved aerie through college years but have seriously been GRATEFUL for the brand now that I'm mom. Your body changes so much and it's so hard to find comfortable clothes post partum and for years following. Most "mom" stores are just not my look. I wear aerie day in and day out! Designers — keep us in mind!!!
