Also get a pack of Belly Bands (Bump Bands)from Ebay, then you can wear your normal clothes for longer.

Oh, and Primark do really long stretchy vests for about £2 that will cover your bump.

I can sniff out a bargain at 500 paces!!!!!

i got my best things from H&M, particularly smart stuff which is very difficult to find. they also do lots of clothes that aren't maternity but can accommodate a bump.

Seconding New Look - great (and cheap!) black trousers for work. H&M Mama for long vests. Gap (normal, not maternity) for stretchy tops. Variations on this theme has lasted right up until I finished work at 37 weeks!

GAP - I bought a great "capsule" pregnancy wardrobe from there without breaking the bank. Jeans are fab.
Also, JoJoMaman Bebe (with MN 10% discount online!)

I love Dorothy Perkins maternity jeans, have 3 pairs...basically have wide elasticated waistbands (below bump) and can even wear after pregnancy as they do not scream out "maternity wear" lol

struggling with long enough short sleaved tops though.
