I miss wearing dresses. I really do.
I have quite easily slipped back into my old wardrobe and quickly figured out what translates into breastfeeding-friendly attire. But, you can’t really hike up a dress and feed bubba whilst standing in line {for an hour!} for Santa at Smith & Caughey’s can you? And yes, if you’re wondering, I did the stand-up breastfeeding manoeuvre IN THE LINE for Santa at S&C this week! I’m a pro guys, I got the skills…..
Anyway, this little number from Breastmates solves all of my dress-angst and is easy-peasy to breast feed in. For reals. And doesn’t it look smashing?
So I dressed it up a bit here with my Kathryn Wilson shoes and a statement necklace, but, I think this dress would look just as great with a bo-ho scarf and flats or jandals {which is probably how I would wear it most of the time}. The cut of this dress is perfect for post-baby bodies, it’s flattering, non-clingy – hell yes – and the fabric is so forgiving it would definitely see you through a range of sizes as you and your belly transition post-partum. I haven’t even gotten to the best part yet, check this out;
So easy and discreet! I am truly feeding Nixon in this shot. See, I don’t really care about discreet, I will feed anywhere and could give two hoots about it, but I know not all mummies feel this way and not all members of the public appreciate a kick-ass breastfeeding mama {wtf?}, so, this dress is pretty ah-maze-ing. I’m thinking summer weddings, Christmas and New Years parties, sunday markets……..
I love it. Available in two colour ways, RRP $99 available from Breastmates
The dress was provided for my consideration but the opinions expressed are my own.
You look gorgeous. Love this dress, have been eyeing it up but don't think I can justify it when the littlest one won't feed for much longer. And go you, feeding standing up in a queue xx
Aw, end of an era Ange!
So gorgeous! Wish it had been around in my day. Breastfeeding my lot in public meant I had to treat cafe goers with a decent glimpse of my go-go-girl breasts. Sigh.
Some clothes just make those boobs look even bigger still! But this dress doesn't, another point for it!
