An excerpt from:
Maternity and Post Natal Notes for Meredith
(aka The unsolicited advice that will eventually annoy you)
Old Navy and Motherhood Maternity are the best places to get nice casual or work clothes for an affordable price.
DO: Splurge on a pricey pair of maternity jeans for two reasons: one, because you will have something you can dress up or down as needed and two, because there will be times when you need to feel pretty and maternity jeans that still make you look slim are a godsend.
DON'T: Buy too many "under the belly” styles. They are fine for the first two trimesters but unless you want to buy more clothes at month seven, invest in the “secret belly fit” option. As your stomach gets bigger the pressure from most under belly styles will become uncomfortable.
There is a store called Destination maternity which is Motherhood, MiMi and a Pea in the Pod all under one roof. They have some great sale racks and it's definitely worth a trek to north Dallas to get the "nice" jeans and their lingerie selection is vast. I also purchased some maternity/nursing gowns there that I still wear because they are so comfortable.
I also still wear my old navy tank tops. I have them in every color, they were cheap and did not lose their shape.
Terusin Bacanya......
