I just want some colour.

Anyone seen any?

Red, green, blue, white, anything but bloody black really.

In a size 16.

Help.

Pretty Pregnant have a green floral one. Large will fit I think.

I saw that one, monkeys- nearly bought it, but I really just want a plain colour.

Gawd bless you for answering, though Grin

Ah, will keep my eyes peeled for you.

Have you seen the Isabella Oliver non maternity ones? They look stretchy so may be worth ordering to try.

I wore an Isabella Oliver dress when pg - non maternity dress that is. Was a wrap dress but key was, er, flexible material! Worth trying last poster's suggestion? Good luck

I have a grey one from JoJo Maman Bebe

If you feel like a small challenge (or have a kind friend/relative with a sewing machine) you could try making one:

That way you can have any colour you like - you can buy jersey in a squillion different colours on ebay.

Sarong? Over the black pencil skirt for decency? At risk of sounding like a hippy (nothing against them, I'm just not like that at all) I did the sarong thing a lot while pregnant and it worked for me. But I was at university not working ...

Thanks all for looking- I honestly don't think one exists.

bump!!!please let one exist..i look like an office worker ALL THE TIME!!! meh!

dingdong3 · 07/03/2012 21:57

Have you looked on ebay...
this..worth looking at to read the terms & conditions!
Grey
coloured denim look and actually, now I look again, it's not really pencil?

Basically, you are being completely ridiculous looking for such an outrageous item of clothing. Grin
