Maternity Work Clothes

Hi!
Does anyone have any recommendations for cute maternity workwear? I can't find anything! I've looked on asos, boohoo and in high street shops! I'm beyond the point of just buying things sized up but I can't find cute workwear, for my work we wear smart casual, so I wear jeans and a cute blouse top usually with frills or something (I don't do plain button up I'm a bit of a girly girl) but I can't find anything, has anyone found any cute bits or know of anywhere I could look? 😊

I like some of the dresses from Juno Jack's and lots of them have breastfeeding/bumping access! Seraphine is nice too but they're both on the pricier side, mint find some second hand on Facebook or vinted

Have a look for Seraphine and Isabella Oliver on Vinted. Really nice smart dresses

Dresses? Vinted has lots.

check Seraphine. They have a couple of stores in London as well as online shop.

All you really need is a pair of maternity jeans or trousers and then you can largely wear normal tops.

Thank you for your suggestions I will have a look and hope I find something! I can't size up anymore as sized up blouses just make me look chunky, they're very unflattering 😅

I have a couple of maternity black pencil skirts that I love (from h+m maternity I think) then some ordinary large tops or maternity tops from jojo maman bebe. Got two oversized blazers from asos to throw on top.

Also a couple of woolly dresses and a shirt dress from jojo. I need to get some maternity tights for when it gets cold though.

You only need about 4-5 outfits imo and wash them regularly so you can rotate.

I got a striped dress from Asda’s maternity aisle, which I will probably end up wearing to the office. It’s on the casual side of ‘smart casual’ definitely, but it’s ridiculous spending good money on work stuff when I go into the office once a week.

After searching and ordering loads of stuff online that was all awful, I did an h and m mama haul (nearly all lovely) and also bought topshop maternity size 12 dresses from vinted. Very very happy with everything I bought.

New look for my work maternity trousers.
Top wise I just size up.

I got a lot of maternity clothes from George at Asda, H&M and New Look. Seem to remember them being quite useful for the office, dresses and blouses etc.

I got a few nice maternity bits in the sale for New Look, they do nice stretchy dresses and smart tops. I’ve either been wearing a stretchy dress with trainers (no one says anything as they’re aware I’m pregnant!) or maternity trousers/leggings with a smart-ish top. There’s lots on vinted and in the sale for most shops so don’t buy expensive stuff unless you want to 😊. I’ve found the sizing to be off too, I bought some new look maternity leggings and they were tight compared to the ones I bought from next.
