When Poppy's birth was approaching I knew what to expect this time and was a lot more prepared. Now, I am certainly no style icon or even style inspiration, but I thought I'd share the outfits I took on our recent family holiday to Cornwall. I've also included Isabella's outfits, but not Poppy's because she generally lives in 'hand me downs' from Isabella. It's If you're like me and don't generally wear jeans or trousers, then you'll know that it makes it even harder to find suitable clothing. Dresses are few and far between and it can be hard to find skirts that are suitable for my life with two children. Hopefully this can help a fellow struggling mummy...

Some lovely selections here I love how you have captured the same pose with all of you in different outfits on different days!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea for a post. I found it so hard to find outfits for breastfeeding so wish I had found something like this at the time. I love the scallop nursing dress, it looks fab! x
ReplyDeleteLovely outfits! I didn't breastfeed so didn't experience issues in the same way, but I do remember not feeling comfortable in anything in my post baby body! x
ReplyDeleteI mostly want to know what you put on that door handle to keep Isabella so entertained!
ReplyDeleteYou two have some serious style going on. I've only just started getting into dresses more since we moved to Portugal but hardly ever wore them in the UK. I love how you team them with stylish cardigans to complete your look and more importantly, stay warm too. I wish I'd been more brave to wear dresses in the UK as I can't get enough of them now! I had no style after giving birth to my son and lived in jeans that were too big for me because I fully expected to put back on weight later on (I didn't). And t-shirts and baggy jumpers went along with those jeans. It's taken a long time to feel comfortable again and I think my mummy style is better these days x
ReplyDeleteLoving the composition of the pics. Nice post 😀
ReplyDeleteI really struggled when I was breast feeding Kipper as there was just nothing I could find that was stylish and feeding friendly. I wish I had seen this post then! It would have been really helpful. I think my favourite is Day 2 x
ReplyDeleteAww, you two look so cute together. My fave is the matching outfit on Day 5.
ReplyDeleteYour daughter loves that door handle, hehe. You look so good, I spend most of my time in jogging bottoms in the early months lol X #twinklytuesday
ReplyDeleteLove where you’ve photographed them. Some lovely outfits here. I used to like the jojo clothes x
ReplyDeleteI so love the way you have done these photos. They are fab! My favourite is day 6 :) WIth day 7 a close second! You look fab in all of them :) It's so hard to find nice comfy breastfeeding clothes. Thanks for linking up with #TwinklyTuesday
ReplyDeleteThanks for these pretty outfits! I am a mother of twins. One is breastfed and one gets organic formula with soymilk from myorganicformula.com/collections/hipp/, because of his lactose intolerance. It really is a hard job to feed them both at once. I will check out these clothes, when they are easy to handle for breastfeeding. Thank you for your suggestions!
