I found some at Target that I love. I have black skinnies and a dark wash jean. I prefer their fit over Old Navy. I scored these when Target had 40% off all clothes during Black Friday, wish I had bought more.
I'm loving the work slacks and jeans I got from Destination Maternity. I know others have had issues with them, but it has been SO HARD for me to find plus size maternity clothes and I am so much more comfortable in these pants!

Does target only carry the one brand? In Canada, they only have their maternity brand and I was curious if in the states they had others?
My pants are 'Liz Lange maternity' and the tops are 'Merona'.
The gap has some nice Maternity pants. I haven't tried any on so I'm not sure how they fit but usually the gap has decent quality stuff, it's not my usual "go to" store but for maternity I plan on getting most basic stuff from there.
I wish maternity clothes were easier to come by for me nothing I try is comfy but also try Macy's if you have one near by I didn't think they had maternity clothes but they do!

Thanks! I'll have to look more closely at them. We only have a couple of options for maternity here and they up the price horrendously. Have you found that they wash well? Same with the tops?
So far, so good. I assume I'll get what I pay for and by the 9th month of wearing them every week they'll start to wear down.

The Gap stuff is great. I wore them through my first pregnancy and they're in great condition for this one. Their stuff fits completely like their non-maternity versions of the same.
Second vote for the Gap. Second time around wearing The Perfect Trouser pant and LOVE them.

I haven't bought any work pants at the Gap, but their maternity jeans are really nice and fit the same as their regular jeans. Old Navy has decent work pants, just be mindful of the fact that they can shrink in the wash.
I have some jeans and sweaters from target, a few sweaters/tops and leggings from old Navy and my MIL took me to motherhood last weekend for work clothes, they had almost everything buy one get one half off and clearance was an extra 30% off. She got me 3 pairs of work pants, 3 dresses, and 6 tops (sweaters/tanks/blouses) for right at $300. I told her she didn't need to spend that much, but she insisted. My mama also got me a bunch of tops on clearance at Belk and my sister ordered me a bunch of tops from Kohls, they had 60% off on black Friday
Motherhood Maternity is typically pretty pricey but they have a great sale right now. I got a pair of jeans for $19, & nice shirts for a little as $8 a piece! Most everything is in good sale right now. Plus they are so helpful in store.

I haven't read all the comments and I don't know if you have Ross where you live but it's like a discount store but everything is new. Anyway I was just at the one closest to me and they actually had a decent maternity selection. Nothing like the stock that chain maternity stores will carry but lots of leggings, a few decent pairs of jeans and really cute tops and sweaters. And everything ranged from $7 to $25! Not bad at all for maternity.
I don't have a large clothes budget (my husband and I decided $20 a month is fine, pregnant or not) so to be honest I really like getting cheap maternity wear at the local Goodwill! Maternity clothes get donated when they are still fairly new, so you can get some great deals if you don't mind used. I got a great pair of maternity jeans and a cute top there...less than $5 each. Why spend a fortune on clothes you'll only wear for a short time anyway, is how I look at it. And it's fun to look around and bargain hunt every few weeks since they have different stuff each time.
If you're looking for designer jeans, A Pea in the Pod carries AG brand maternity skinny jeans and they are amazing. I realize they're a ridiculous splurge, but I have no regrets.
My problem with finding maternity pants is my inseam length. I take an XL length...minimum of 34-35". I usually get my jeans at the Buckle. A lot of stores don't carry XL in store...I'd have to order them. However, I haven done a lot of research, so there may be stuff out there.
Loft is okay for tops but I don't recommend their maternity pants. I have 4 pairs of Gap black pants that lasted my whole pregnancy and I am confident will last through this one. I have two of the full belly and two under belly. It is worth the investment.
Jessica Simpson at Motherhood has been my go to for jeans and leggings. Motherhood has okay dresses, Old Navy's are the best! Old Navy also has great tops.
I'm wearing my old navy mat jeans right now. They are my favorite!
And for FTM's, I went to Motherhood Wednesday and bought a red dress for Christmas yesterday. When I went to pay, they gave me a little gift bag. Whe I got home, it had a 4 oz. Avent bottle and a ton of gift cards with coupons! I was very happy!
My local Macy's has Motherhood brand, but was able to visit one of their stores ealier this month. I was excited to get that free bottle (none of the other coupons are helpful for me). Again today went to local Macy's and got 5 tops, 2 tanks and another pair of pants.
Christmas gift from my sister was a pair of pants & two tops from Old Navy.
Has anyone found any good leggings? I could live in yoga pants but can't wear them to work so I figure leggings and a long shirt would work. I checked Kohl's and Target and did not see any there... Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks everyone! I actually had great luck at old navy (jeans) and kohls (leggings) today!! Normally I'm not a fan of their clothes but these seemed to be made well and actually fit well!! So happy!!
Re: Where can I find good maternity pants?
I'm not sure where you are from but I really like Ripe.
