I'm so jealous! I'm too short for Maxi dresses! And boo for wearing pants to work. I've been off the past week and a half and I've been wearing athletic shorts and sweat pants that are a size to big along with DHs tee shirts which are huge! I hate wearing real clothes now.
You just need to find one that fits you right or buy one and get it tailored/hemmed I'm only 5'2 but I have lots of nice maxis now that are all very flattering.
I feel the same way right now- except instead of maxi dresses I am in athletic shorts or carpis. When I go back to work I have to wear dress pants or nice jeans. My jeans are getting too tight and very uncomfortable to wear. I have maternity pants and just bought capris yesterday but I cannot bring myself to wear them yet since I am only 8 weeks

Im easily the most relaxed dresser at work these days lol but I don't give a crap!!!! Any pressure on my belly hurts so im wearing dresses and my boss even joked about it! Seriously who's gonna get pissed at a pregnant lady for dressing comfortably?

Seriously, it's a sanitation thing. No bare legs in production. It's a federal regulation. No exceptions.

I'm short too, but have bought 2 maxi dresses. I figure I can always wear wedge sandals with them. My question is what kind of bra do you wear with the strapless ones? The idea of putting my strapless bra on right now is a painful one.
With you! I have one maxi dress left that fits, otherwise it's just yoga pants and gigantic t-shirts and the maxi dress is so much more comfortable. But I think people would judge me if they saw me wearing it every single day... :P

My mom just bought me one too, though its nice enough to wear to work. I wore it yesterday and am wearing it again today! I had no idea how good it felt to go without the dumb tummy panel all day long! Too bad its not acceptable to wear the same dress 7 days a week! I suppose I need to invest in a few more!

I love them!
I would wear them to work, but in my industry, it's a no-no to wear them within production. And I never day I will need to go into the lines.
