Maternity work skirts

Has anyone found any smart, non pencil, black work skirts? I normally wear basic m&s a line mini skirts (I'm short so they are nearly knee length lol) but can't find any that aren't tight or above the knee. Any help would be great!!

Hey i got 2 from mothercare but they are more pencil style. They are a really stretchy jersey material though so not restrictive at all!

My problem is I'm short but a size 14 so pencil skirts often make my hips and bum look far too big! But thanks, I will try them on and see what I think :-)

DebsOctBaby - have you had a look at ASOS? I've seen them doing a lot of maternity lately. I've not seen any skirts but I've not been looking for them. They might be worth a try as they also do petite.

October baby - when are you due? My little boy was born 15th October 2016.

Sorry just seen the user above me has posted ASOS petite 🙈. New look maternity may be worth a try too.

I have bought pretty much all my maternity wear from asos petite maternity - it's not the fantastic quality but very reasonable in price, and the clothes actually fit (unlike most maternity clothes which make me feel like I'm wearing a sack - I'm only 5' 2".

Spent my whole pregnancy looking for non-pencil maternity skirts and barely found anything - just a denim skirt from Seraphina in the sale that turned out not to be v comfortable.
