Stop Mixing Plus and Maternity

Do you have any plus-size fashion pet peeves? I definitely have one: when people mix maternity and plus in the same batch! Sometimes I am shopping for plus-size picks and I see something really cute–and then I’m like, wait, what’s that?! Oh yes, it’s a maternity pair of jeans stuck in the plus-size fashion section! Arg.

After sifting through what felt like an extraordinary number of maternity items today, I did find a pair of jeans that suited me well: these Dickies ones from Torrid that seem to have an utterly flattering fit. Sigh. . . it’s sometimes worth it to page through all the bulging bellies, but why do they do that? Who is the keyworder responsible for tagging plus-size fashions “maternity” ones? It’s not hard enough shopping for looks over size 14, wouldn’t you agree?
Do you have trouble with plus-size and maternity fashions getting all mixed up?
