Does anyone have any recommendations of where to buy maternity pants for work? My company has a pretty strict dress policy so I need to invest in some nice maternity pants soon. I'm hoping to find a variety of colors/patterns. Thanks!

The Gap full panel ones are great. I know Gap had a sale right before Thanksgiving last year where they had 60% off one item and 40% off for everything else so I think that's when I bought them.

I got a black pair at Destination Maternity. They were pretty dressy, yet comfortable.

I love mine from the GAP. I also have a pair from Target and they are nice too. I haven't ordered pants but Loft has some nice stuff.

I thought the ones at Destination Maternity/Motherhood were the best deal and dressy/professional/career.
I loved my GAP maternity clothes in general, but always tried to buy them on sale since they're original prices tend to be $$$!

I got a number of pairs from Motherhood. They're full panel and comfy yet dressy. I did stick with some pretty boring colors - black, grey and brown.

Gap pants with the ultimate panel are my favorite - versatile for multiple trimesters and well made. I thought the Motherhood ones were too thin - showed every dimple and bump on my thighs.

Loved mine from Gap maternity - light wool blend suit trousers and suuuuper soft belly panel. Perfect for office dress.

Thanks for all the recommendations! I will check out all these sites! I'm hoping to be able to last till after Thanksgiving so I can hopefully score some Black Friday deals.

I had two pairs of pants from Motherhood- one was good, one was meh- it was made out of stretchier fabric, so it wasnt very forgiving of pregnancy weight gain.
I wish I had invested in some higher quality pants- if you're needing to wear them 5 days a week for work, I think a more quality pant is a better idea.

I bought some dressy black ones from Isabella Oliver. They have a nice cuff at the bottom and a cute sash at the waist with a sort of pleated waist.

I got some on sale at a local boutique--more expensive than I wanted, but fairly reasonable since they were on sale. I'm also finding myself wearing a lot more dresses (with tights or leggings underneath) than I did pre-pregnancy, and maternity dresses are REALLY easy to find. I wear my pre-preg blazers or cardigans (just not buttoned, obviously) over them.

@Jessibee I am having the hardest time finding maternity tights - mainly cute patterned/textured tights. I had heard another option is to wear a size larger and in tall in regular tights because they can go up over your bump and aren't as uncomfortable. Where did you find your tights?

I have a pair from Motherhood that have no belly - they have a real zipper and button close with a elastic around the back. I still need to figure out a blazer solution because all my old ones are getting tight already, but these are the most comfortable dress slacks I've EVER owned!

Gap is my favorite so far, but I have one pair of dress pants from Target that I like, too.

I still wear my Destination Maternity ones 19 weeks postpartum. So much comfier than my old ones.

I had 2 dressy pairs and a pair of more casual khakis from Target that I LOVED - I swear they made my butt look better than my non-maternity pants. They all had full belly panels that fit me well from 11 weeks all the way until 38 weeks when I stopped working.

@HappyJax: I'm still wearing non-maternity tights--they're somewhat low-rise, and the part that isn't I've been folding down so that they just sit below the bump. I guess that's also why I've been leaning towards the leggings more than the tights recently :). Anyone else have a good source for WARM maternity tights?!
