The Wrap Dress: the perfect post-partum garment

Ugh, I've mentioned before how I struggle with dressing my post-baby body. Now that summer is on the way I'm scrambling to find clothes in my closet that fit the way I'd like them to -- not a super fun thing. So I've decided to name this summer "The Summer of Dresses."

I loved dresses before Baby Jo, but now, dresses are even better. They can hide all of the icky muffin-top that I hate and make me feel pretty at the same time -- especially wrap dresses. Wrap dresses must have been a gift from the post-partum gods. You can adjust the waist to hit at your smallest part, the v-neck is flattering (even for bigger busts), and they're usually made of super-soft forgiving jersey material. If you're nursing it's also easy to pull aside the front in order to feed your babe.

Wanna know a secret? You don't have to have had a baby to wear a wrap dress either. They look great on all of us!

Here are a few of my faves:
