Boo on Expensive Maternitiy Clothes

I don't normally shop at Ann Taylor Loft, but I was browsing their maternity collection and found a couple cute things:

Tie-neck Striped top

Ponte Leggings

Striped Top Dress
but why so pricey?? I don't know why I keep expecting maternity clothes to be cheap simply because you only wear them for a few months. Sometimes I scan ebay/ksl/craigslist but you would not believe the tacky stuff out there. Plus I'd rather pay a little extra to have something be cute AND well-made. Although I have been experimenting with making my own maternity jeans...stay tuned.

All in all, I hope I'm able to pass on my maternity clothes to a friend or sister when I'm done! Convincing Mikes to get preggers last fall was pretty tough, I think it'll be awhile before there's talk of #2...

I love that dress didn't we just get you maternity leggings this weekend?

But you'd be surprised a lot of NON maternity stuff will work too. There are so many high and empire waist style dresses out there right now.

true that about non maternity but i think you have to be careful b/c something that works for maternity will likely make you look pregnant when you are not (curse of the empire waist dress)
