Packing away our favorite jeans was not exactly our favorite pregnancy day. Delay the inevitable with California-made b-buckles. Essentially a stretchy pants extender, the Buckle fastens onto one belt loop, extends over your pant’s snap and fastens onto another loop. A few nips and tucks and you’re walking around with your jeans unbuttoned. (Think fancier, more functional rubber band.) The good news – plain & adorned (rose tattoo, bun in the oven, etc) style are available. The less good? The b-buckle will buy you a few weeks or months, but you’ll most likely have to relinquish those jeans eventually. $22 at mybbuckles.com.
