Look, pregnancy—though infinitely beautiful and amazing, as life experiences go—is certainly hard enough without squeezing into pencil skirts and heels every day. And for those who don’t subscribe to the high-maintenance art of baby bump–cinching, heel-teetering maternity looks, feel free to take a page from Liv Tyler. The pouty actress and ’90s ingenue is the downtown goddess of easy, breezy mom-to-be looks, layering an oversize Adidas tee over leggings for a streetwear effect, or pairing a simple slouchy trouser with ballet flats and marinière top for a dash of color as she strolls the streets of New York City.
Tyler has fully embraced the ’90s classics while emphasizing that comfort comes first, turning up in denim overalls, scuffed-up Converse, and a polished black jacket topped off with a knotted kerchief around the neck—perhaps in a nod to her rock-star father, Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, who has made the light patterned scarf his onstage signature. And the similarities between the father-daughter duo don’t end there: Just a few weeks ago the two were spotted out on a walk—she in a tight, trippy, graphic body-con dress and he in low-slung striped flares, a grommeted belt, and a white shirt topped off with a sport jacket. The ultimate twinning factor? Their matching wind-tousled tresses. You know what they say: The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
