I must give credit where credit is due and say that there are brands out there with great things.Gap and ASOS (leave it to the Brits) being excellent examples.
Does everything have to either wrap or tie above the bump? Also, why does the bump band portion of pants need to be made from some sort of un-breathing material. Couldn't Under Armour or Nike step in and help us out here? Athletic clothing has all sorts of fabric that wick moisture away, etc. Is it impossible to add this to a pair of decent looking pants?
My search for shorts has been frustrating to the point of tears (many of you have probably heard my complaints already). I had no clue that finding maternity shorts to replace my go to JCrew shorts would be so hard.
I tried Bermuda shorts but pregnancy has not improved my appearance in them - so that was a no go. It seemed that my choices were $200 booty shorts or giving up completely and wearing Jason's boxers out in public. But given that this is Texas and that I have a whole summer to get through I realistic solution had to be found.
So I have decided to buy regular shorts in a size or two up and have a belly band sewn in. (This will hopefully get me to point of the summer where I refuse to leave my spot under the A/C vent.)
That moment of brilliance got me thinking... why don't I have dresses made too!?! When my dress from Rosie Pope came in (a splurge) I had found the dress to copy. A quick trip to the fabric store and a conversation with my alterations lady and I am in business.
I am hoping this will all work out - Jason looked at me very skeptically. I will keep you posted.
