So I decided I wanted to shop for some maternity clothes....well, dh decided for me. So I just spent 4 hrs online and 90 bucks later I have...... 1 cardigan, 3 blouses, a red pair of skinny jeans, and a grey pair with studs. Not bad for the price BUT Im soooo disappointed in the style of everything. Its all either really sloppy/unfitted/flowy crap or just plain dowdy. Even Pea (which I dont usually shop bc of price) didnt have anything I would want. I went to ON, Gap, Motherhood, Pea, Amazon, Overstock.......... Another problem I keep having is many of the places are out of XS and S

Does anyone know of any reasonably priced online retailors that have appealing, classic, sexy clothing????

I got lucky and shopped in stores..
Kohls has good stuff a lot of times. Also jc penny but I don't think they carry maternity anymore. Occasionally I could find something cute at target also.

I shopped in store when I was pregnant with my son because I always wanted to try things on because it always fit or looked different than I thought it would. I liked Ross.

I dont usually shop at jcp, but I have a friend that works there, and when they clearanced out their maternity line everything went on sale for $4 or $5.. Then we added her discount and I literally paid $2.55 for maternity jeans, shorts, slacks, maxi dresses, and tees. I was in heaven lol. I just don't know if they still carry online.

Oh, and babies r us has maternity now! I never shopped there though because I didn't know that until late in my pregnancy.. My son is two weeks old today.

Loft?

Honestly, I found some things at the Limited that lasted me deep into pregnancy. I normally wear a medium/small in there and just bought a large in some things. (Not pants)

I found some skinny cords at Motherhood I really liked and I've worn those almost the entire time.
