Where to buy summer maternity clothes?

I've been living in maternity leggings or jeans until now but I'm looking for some summer clothes before the weather gets too warm and having trouble finding good options. T-shirts are easy enough but I haven't been able to find any decent shorts that fit and are comfortable (and nice enough to wear outside the house rather than pyjama type ones). Was also looking for a dress or two but haven't been inspired by what I've seen so far or found them too heavy for hot weather. Usually I feel the heat a lot in warm weather and sweat easily so looking for comfortable clothing that will also keep me cool but still look decent enough for work (which is pretty casual) and days out. Due in July so it could be getting quite warm by the time I give birth and I guess I will still need the maternity stuff for awhile afterwards as well.

Any suggestions on where to shop?

Shein

not very ethical but I have some really good quality maternity bits from there and I can’t afford Seraphine for things I’ll only wear for another 6 weeks

i have been really happy with the bits I’ve got from there

h&m is also good

i would usually say supermarkets but this seasons offerings are really naff

Vinted! I've found so many brilliant summery maternity dresses on there all still really good quality

I got a load of over the bump shorts from H&M that I wore a lot. I would expect ASOS, Next or Zalando have various options on their websites too.

Isabella Oliver is great but very pricey, I got a couple of great maternity jumpsuits from ASOS but bought these in their winter sale. I also love H&M, have found dresses and shirts in their standard ranges fit over my bump if I just size up even now I have a decent bump.

Standard maxi dresses tend to be good over the bump, I wore those in my last pregnancy, this time I'm hitting Vinted and just getting second hand on the basis I'll get a couple of months wear out of the summer stuff as due in August.
