Although was nervous about buying any clothes so early on, I had no choice, I was wearing my skirt unzipped!
I work in Leeds city centre so thought there would be plenty of options to look around the shops for a work skirt/ trousers... nope!
H&M sell maternity - none of it is appropriate work attire & then there is Topshop!
I got a tube skirt from Topshop, needless to say I returned it the next day, I am not 12 weeks yet so dont want anyone finding out, but this skirt clung to me, it would prob make the slimmest of slimgyms look pregnant!
A friend recommended Next & showed me her proper looking trousers with a cute hidden maternity stretch in the side. Next doesn't stock clothes so I had to order a tonne of stuff online.
It arrived today - but these are awful too!
The trousers are fake trousers, fake pockets, fake zip, elastic band running all around the top... size 10 feel too tight, size 12 are too big & falling down.
Couple of skirts, size 10 is too big in these! Each item making it obvious there is a bump there, which I'll just have to tell people is fat...
I asked before for suggestions & was recommended wrap dresses, think I'll have to do some more shopping!
