Default Cute Maternity Clothes

Where do you all shop for them?? It seems like some places are really expensive. I was looking online at Ann Taylor Loft, and they have some really cute maternity clothes that are reasonably priced. I thought this dress was adorable. Best part is, it's on sale for only $50!

I always used Motherhood for good prices and Old Navy online....they don't have much in stores, but a lot online and they are really cute and good prices too. Also, Motherhood carries a line in Kholes stores called Oh Baby...same brand, different name for a different store and same good prices....hint, for either store, don't dry any of the clothes...wash only and then hang to dry or they all shrink UP a lot! Makes for good 'midriff' clothing when preggo if they dry in a machine! Lordy no! LOL

Everywhere else was so expensive for the same thing....

Motherhood, Target has some cute stuff and is more reasonably priced, Kiki's Maternity (online store) is VERY reasonable though I haven't ordered from them yet, Walmart occasionally has things on their website that are cute... mostly though... Motherhood... you can't beat their sales or even their regular prices on maternity clothes, and the quality is good. I guess it depends on what you think a "reasonable" price is... if 50 bucks is reasonable to you, then you could always try Babystyle.com, they have beautiful things, Mimi Maternity... try www.maternitymall.com they have a few different stores under their one web address.

Oh yeah, Jen...I forgot to mention Target, they have some good things for great prices! Walmart also has a very few clothes, but you can get some 'basics' there for cheap and then splurge a little more on the pieces to accent them!

I was at ross the other day and i noticed that they have really cute maternity clothes! I was surprised (made me wish i was preggo). I didn't check the price but i'm sure it's cheap.

But yeah when i was preggo i shopped at motherhood maternity. You can find pretty cute stuff there for a decent price.

I've not been overly impressed with Target's selection lately Normally I really DO LIKE their stuff, but this go round, it's like .. blech .. could just be my area though They're a bit off in everything else, why should this be any different? *shrug*

Target online maybe has a better selection. I don't do much online browsing, let alone shopping.

Motherhood, yep, that's pretty much it for me. They can be kinda hit & miss with what's 'cute' IMO But, they seemed to have 'hit' well enough this round for me...came home with 4 shirts heehee

Thanks for all the ideas! Yeah, in the past when I have shopped at Target the clothes didn't hold up too well after a few washes. I'm all for a good deal but it has to last too. Thats what I like about Ann Taylor Loft--their stuff is quality even though it's not that expensive. Does anyone use the pants with belly panels? Seems like they would be great as you grow.

Another vote for Motherhood and Old Navy! I, too, had problems with some pants I got at Target holding up in the wash - the shirts I got from Target were great, but the velour pants I got started to lose their "fuzz" and needed to be patched. Ann Taylor Loft is too pricey for me, but the Motherhood and Old Navy items I got have lasted me 2 pregnancies (so far!) and many washes.

I have never found any maternity jeans I liked, but did have work/dress pants and khaki pants with the large belly panel and they were great for the last 3-5 mos or so of my pregnancies.

Yeah, that is the worst when you have a favorite outfit and it gets ruined in the wash! I would rather pay a little more to have things last. I was looking on Ann Taylor Loft's site, and there are actually some great finds that are on sale...this sweater is only $10.00!

PS- Good to know that the belly panel pants worked for you-- it seems like they would be comfy, too!
