Kiwi Mummy Blog Review – Breastmates Dress

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
