As I breastfeed my baby, I tend to wear clothes that make this as straightforward as possible - tops and skirts or sometimes trousers, dresses that open at the front, or my gorgeous nursing dress. Of course, I have oodles of clothes from TTBB (The Time Before Baby) but I usually forget that I have them. Yesterday we were going out for the afternoon sans enfant and I reached out for a top and skirt and paused... wait... I can wear a NON-breastfeeding dress. Gosh.
With deference to my current favourite blog, Academichic, I am wearing the following:
Short navy linen dress - Topshop,
Sandals - Birkenstocks
Bag - Mulberry Bayswater
Headscarf - Hermes (Les Clefs pattern) a
Sunglasses - Gucci (prescription)
Less glamorously, I still wore a nursing bra underneath all that because I have no non-nursing bras that fit.
Oh, the decadent life of the Mum-about-Oxford.
Well, you look fabulous! We're very flattered by the shout-out and look forward to seeing more TTBB outfits from you for inspiration! Hope you had a lovely day out without the little one!

I want to be as chic as you have been while breastfeeding! But it's nice to know that -- someday -- I just may make it back into my TTBB clothes.
