According to almost every gossip rag in existence, AND Page Six, blonde multi-hyphenate Jessica Simpson is expecting her first child with fiance Eric Johnson.

The aforementioned media outlets are, of course, having a field day with the news, with most reporters wondering whether Jess' probable pregnancy will speed up her planned nuptials (keep in mind that Simpson and Johnson have been engaged for nearly a year now). We, on the other hand, are contemplating the more style-based questions this raises—what should Jess wear as a mother-to-be? From capes to cool moto-inspired kicks, take a look at our picks:

This piece of awesome outerwear is a baby bump no-brainer.

Those superhigh platforms Jess favors might be off-limits in the months to come.

Jessica is a famous fan of Rachel Pally's jersey basics--and they're a perfect pick for yummy mummies.

What might Jessica say about this roomy tote (that could easily double as a diaper bag)? "I'm gonna lug you forever." Sorry, it was right there.

It's no secret Ms. Simpson's a fan of big, cozy sweaters.

This frock's equine print nods to the future mom's Southern roots.

Savvy businesswoman that she is, Jess reminds us of another gorgeous multitasking mom--Heidi Klum. These animal-print pants are from the supermodel's own maternity collection!

It's fall, and Jess is going to need to keep that bun in the oven nice and toasty.

Again, flat footwear's a must for expectant moms. These zippered biker boots from Jessica's own collection fit the bill for sure.

Let's face it, though--any real mama-to-be's real necessity is a cozy pair of sweatpants. But Jessica needs ones that'll wow those waiting paparazzi. Enter this chic silk offering from Alex Wang.
