I've never shopped at ASOS, there are some interesting things there! And definitely affordable.</p> <p>And yes, @Stacy to the being able to wear it again, that would be very nice!</p> <p>Looks like I've got some online shopping to do! :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maternity-cocktail-dresses#post-1682933 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 19:20:27 +0000 mrsjyw 1682933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At that time, I was still able to buy nonmaternity in larger sizes!</p> <p>Or I've heard great things about ASOS maternity for a budget friendly, fashionable option! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maternity-cocktail-dresses#post-1682843 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 19:08:01 +0000 regberadaisy 1682843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Asos or h&amp;m! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maternity-cocktail-dresses#post-1682769 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:48:43 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1682769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found one at H&amp;M that I wore to a few weddings last summer. It was maybe $45? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maternity-cocktail-dresses#post-1682764 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:47:54 +0000 MrsA 1682764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Would renting something be an option? I used mine for nine a few times while pregnant, for my showers and for a black tie gala. It was great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maternity-cocktail-dresses#post-1682752 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:45:35 +0000 night cheese 1682752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Try ASOS. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maternity-cocktail-dresses#post-1682682 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:29:30 +0000 Canoli 1682682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How about finding a black maternity dress that you could wear again and accesorizing with jewelry? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maternity-cocktail-dresses#post-1682463 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 16:52:56 +0000 Ms.Pumpkin 1682463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At the end of the month, I'm going to be attending my cousin's quinceanera (big, fancy 15th birthday party). It's a Great Gatsby themed party, and the invitations state "cocktail or Great Gatsby attire". </p> <p>I'll be 25w pregnant at that point, and beyond fitting into all of my fancy dresses. I've got one silk maxi dress that is white with a blue watercolor-type pattern on it, but it doesn't really seem 'cocktail' to me. </p> <p>I think at 25w, pulling together a Great Gatsby costume is just beyond my abilities (and might end up looking absurd), so I'm trying to find something cocktail appropriate, but I really do not want to spend more than $50-$60 on this. Is this even possible? I'm kind of feeling stuck! </p> <p>Any suggestions on where I should look? </p>
