Christina announced last week that she is pregnant and debuted her baby bump Sunday at the Los Angeles premiere of Cats & Dogs: The Revenge Of Kitty Galore. The 38-year-old actress who is engaged to her baby’s father, rocker Martyn Lenoble didn’t dish on the baby’s gender “that is for me to know,” she said and would only reveal that she’s “somewhere between zero and 10 months” along.

Street Cargo Product Review

The cargo maternity bottoms by Ripe are a great everyday pant that goes with everything! Wear with sneakers for a hike or with hills for a night out. They are super comfortable and feature a bellow-the-belly elastic band. My favorite part is that they can be buttoned up for a capri or left down for a pant. These are a great transitional piece that won’t go out of style!
