Rihanna is a blooming inspiration

Rihanna is pregnant, and this mama-to-be is showing off her naked bump in style in low-slung jeans.

I say: “Go girl.”

I wish I’d had the same confidence when I was pregnant – but the last thing on my mind was fashion.

I am of a generation when bumps were to be hidden from view. There was a kind of shame in showing them off. How backward was that? No wonder so many women had body hang-ups with their post-pregnancy bellies.

It’s great to see women today embracing their bumps. I believe that with role models such as Rihanna, they will feel so much more confident about their bodies. Be loud and proud of your bumps, ladies.
