When you have a newborn, your world revolves around them and getting dressed each day isn't always manageable, or something instagram or blog worthy! But with two boys under two, there are some days you do have to get out of the house and some even better days where you manage to wear something clean you feel good in. I'll be sharing some of those pictures on the blog when I can.
The anticipated autumn weather hadn't arrived with the changing of the seasons, so my first few trips out I stuck with my summer pregnancy uniform - shorts, singlet and kimono. Just wearing nursing singlets instead of maternity singlets.
What I wore:
Shorts: Jeanswest Georgie maternity boyfriend shorts (available in non-maternity also)
Shoes: black slim Havaianas thongs
Bag: Balenciaga giant hardware Day bag in 2009 tempete
Why I wore it:
Wore this for one of our first trips out post-baby! Had to stop by our local child health clinic after we were discharged from hospital to get baby boy enrolled and ask some questions. When toddler T was a baby we spent a lot of time at the clinic, getting lots of help, advice, going to free sessions and having weekly weigh-ins. I've shared before what a great free service it is - we really are so lucky to be able to drop by any day of the week in the newborn days.Last worn: Ray-Ban Wayfarers, Somedays Lovin' kimono, Jeanswest breastfeeding singlet, maternity boyfriend shorts, Havaianas, Balenciaga day bag.
Other ways to wear: Somedays Lovin' kimono and a maxi skirt, Jeanswest breastfeeding singlet and skinny jeans, maternity boyfriend shorts and LV speedy bag, Balenciaga day bag and maxi dresses.

Why I wore it:
Wore this out for a trip to the local ABA (Australian Breastfeeding Association) meeting. We'd had an appointment scheduled for later that day that was cancelled, so we were able to go to the meeting at the last minute. I was pretty happy as the session was about baby massage, which is a lot of fun for all involved. Even if toddler T wanted to play with the toys instead and baby boy slept...I practiced the techniques on a nearby doll!Last worn: RayBan wayfarer (above), tribal print kimono, black nursing singlet, maternity denim shorts (above), Havaianas (above), Balenciaga day bag (above).
Other ways to wear: tribal print kimono and skinny jeans, black nursing singlet and a maxi skirt, maternity denim shorts and a plain tank, Balenciaga day bag and skinny jeans.
