    Hi Ladies,

    You were right. Absolutely no problem trying something to fit the postpartum figure - well, certain cuts and styles didn't suit but that is no different to the situation before kids.

    It just feels strange shopping for myself after so long when I have avoided it (plus I was waiting for the post-baby weight to shed a bit!) I'd rather go and buy something for the kids or DH - it is so much easier shopping for them!

    Well, what did I buy I hear you ask?

    I went for the silk Kimono dress from Review - its A-line, Empire-line, so no emphasis on the tummy!

    Now I have to decide whether to wear the long boots with opaque tights or go for the footless legging and shoe look. I think I will let the weather decide that one!
    Cold = Tights and Boots.
    Sunny = Leggings and shoes.

    Plus the tights/legging tuck the tummy in too!! Bonus!

    Thanks for all your help.
