Sisters Jessica and Ashlee Simpson have just launched their clothing line – their first joint business venture, would you believe.

“It’s a combination of both of our styles,” said Jessica, who is currently pregnant with her first child. “Ashlee is very rock ‘n’ roll, and I’m very American.”

The girls’ clothing range comprises of t-shirts, jeans and shoes, with proceeds from one very special t-shirt all going towards the Baby Buggy charity, founded by Jessica Seinfeld.

Elder Simpson sister Jessica also revealed that she has just signed a deal for her very own maternity line, as well as girls’ footwear. And while she is yet unsure of the gender of the baby she is expecting with her fiancé Eric Johnson, she hinted to WWD that she could branch out into boys’ clothing if she gives birth to a son in the new year.

Pregnancy clearly isn’t slowing Jessica down, as she is reportedly already working on her spring/summer 2013 womenswear collection – talk about organised!

Jessica and Ashley’s joint clothing collection is sold through the Jessica Simpson label and is out now!

Bootylicious singing superstar Beyonce Knowles has been voted the world’s most stylish mother-to-be, topping a fashion poll conducted by British bag and accessories company, Josoblu.

“Considering Beyonce is one of the most glamorous women in the world and constantly appears in best dressed lists, it is only fitting that she tops the poll for fashionable mothers to be,” a spokesperson for the site said. “Even though this is her first pregnancy it hasn’t stopped Beyonce rocking the highest heels or sparkly numbers – it proves to women that pregnancy can be stylish.”

Beyonce is living proof that women can still be every bit as sexy while pregnant as they were pre-bump; we are yet to see our Bey in maternity jeans or comfortable jogger bottoms and if she continues to dress the way she has done throughout her pregnancy so far, we don’t think we are likely to either.

Other yummy mummies-to-be who were recognised in the poll were The Saturday’s singer Una Healey who came second, and Amanda Holden and Jennifer Garner, who came third and fourth respectively.

We feel Victoria Beckham deserves one of the top spots too, but other than that, we think the poll is spot on! Do you agree?

It just got a whole lot easier to achieve yummy mummy status, as Beyonce is creating her very own maternity range.The 30-year-old mummy-to-be revealed that now she is pregnant, she is more aware than ever what shapes and lines suit pregnant bodies.

“All I see now are clothes that are flattering on a pregnant woman,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “It’s been so exciting for me! I love figuring out designs that make me feel edgy and sexy while pregnant.”

If there’s one person to prove that you can still be sexy and pregnant, Beyonce is definitely the lady to do it.

The clothing range will be an addition to the highly successful House of Deréon collection Beyonce created with her mother Tina Knowles.

Do you think in 20 years time we will be treated to a clothing collaboration with Beyonce Junior and his or her mother? Only time will tell!

Whilst venturing around Los Angeles last week, actress Lindsay Price opted to wear a gorgeous Isabella Oliver ruched tank dress in scarlet red.

The dress itself comes from the label’s maternity collection, which was subsequently launched as a by-product in 2003, offering women both stylish and comfortable items of clothing with unrivaled quality and fit throughout their pregnancy.

The dress comes with a ruched design to flatter your bump from any angle, with a knee length cut to cover a multitude of sins – not to mention making good use of your curvier maternal frame.

News has been soaring this morning with reports coming in that celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe is currently in labour at Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles.

The Rachel Zoe Project star is said to be expecting a little boy with husband Rodger Berman and couldn’t be happier at the arrival of their first child – but unsurprisingly, no official statement has yet been released to confirm the fashionable star’s current birthing status.

Renowned for her impeccable sense of style, Rachel hasn’t let her baby bump get in the way of rocking the latest maternity trends – just last week she was pictured wearing 6-inch leopard boots, reports Too Fab – you’ve got to love her persistence!

Good luck with the birth Rachel! And stay tuned for more indefinite updates on her little bundle of joy.
