isabella oliver online maternity wear is beautiful. a year down the track after my twins were born i'm back to normal size but still wearing my two stylish tops i bought from there and get hheaps of comments. easy to use website too so good for those that don't want to brave oxford st! look at this page

saw on ebay 'oasis' jumper dresses yesterday, not maternity but maybe you could buy the next size up from your usual, they look lovely, and would go with jeans and boots...I think anyway

I agree Isabella Oliver has the best maternity clothes.... why dont you try the black tunic. I have it, and it is gorgeous with jeans. Always get loads of comments. The navy batwing jumper is fab too.

I second isabella oliver

SantasNuttySTaff · 10/12/2008 22:19

i do think isabella oliver has stunning stuff but am i the only person that maybe thinks that it is hugely expensive for only 8 months of wear??

Ronaldinhio · 10/12/2008 22:20

if only it had only been 8 months in my case!!

SantasNuttySTaff · 10/12/2008 22:35

but still £50 for a cami top ???
thats 2 weeks food shopping!!! bloody rip off imo you can get 2 for £7 at topshop (just buy bigger sizes)

sorry had to get that off me chest feel better now

This?

Does it have to be black?

Ewe · 10/12/2008 22:44

I love this for over a vest and this is a bargain!

lulururu · 10/12/2008 23:36

yes isabella oliver is expensive but at a special time its nice to feel special plus all of their stuff is made to look good even when you're not pregnant - ruching and gathers and asymmetrical lines so its good for afterwards too. i felt glamorous in my isabella oliver stuff rather than just a waddling hippo which i felt in some of my other maternity wear.

Hooray for all of you! I love that Topshop cardigan and the IO wrap cardigan is just lovely. I have one of their portait tops and it does make me feel absolutely amazing when I wear it. Don't suppose there are any discount codes knocking about though - 90 quid is a bit steep at this time of year!
thanks again x

i've got the wrap cardigan and i'm still wearing it a year after the twins were born so actually bought it over a year and a half ago and still feel stylish in it. its quality fabric used for IO too and everything i've bought from them still feels like new and nothing has pilled. to get a promotional discount code for them you need to buy something first then they put a coupon in your package for "future purchases" so if you just got one thing chance are you could get something else cheaper next time? they have a sale section too. i don't work for IO i swear!

Doesn't mumsnet give 10% off at IO? Look under the discounts link on top.
