Hi, I posted this in the multiples board and thought I'd also check for local in put as well...
I'm 28 weeks with twins and wear size XL-1X. Our shower is coming up in a couple weeks along with maternity photos and I'm looking for a couple nice dresses that fit and are affordable (no more than around the $100 mark). Up to now, I've been shopping the clearance racks at Target and Motherhood (with a little Ross thrown in) for work and casual but would really like something flattering and nice for the upcoming occasions. Any suggestions? Appreciate any feedback.
Thanks.

Thanks all. I checked out Izzy online and in Alpharetta. Do you think it's worth checking the Buckhead store? So far I haven't seen anything online that I liked in my size and nothing in the store that grabbed me.
I'll have a look at loft.com. I briefly visited zulily and it looked like you had to register to view their stuff? Since I'm looking for something rather quickly, I didn't go any further.
Does Pea in the Pod really have different stuff from Motherhood? I got the impression they're interrelated.
On the other board, someone suggested going to a plus size store (e.g. Lane Bryant) or site (torrid or onestopplus) and just getting a dress from there. I've seen a couple nice dresses there. However, I'm concerned about the fit. Any thoughts on that?
Thanks again for all the feedback!
Thanks mingaling2. I see what you mean about Pea in a Pod - just checked. They got some nice things but the prices are a bit high and they don't sell plus size. They only had one XL dress.
I'll check out Izzy's buckhead store.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the feedback and apologies for only now checking back in. For the shower, I ended up wearing a dress from Target and for the maternity photo, a dress from Lane Bryant.
cputman200, I did notice that different Targets will have different stock on clearance in the Maternity section. I didn't check out the one on US 41 in Marietta as I'm not often in that area, but if I am in the next few weeks, I'll check it out.
Thanks again for all the feedback.
