I LOVED this strapless nursing tank.
Maternity Monday: Polka Dot Mock Wrap Dress
I always associate Kate Middleton with the brand Seraphine — I believe she’s worn a ton of their dresses during her pregnancies — and I like this springy wrap dress. This navy polka dot version (also the cobalt) version looks classic, flattering, and lovely. It’s $89-$95 at Amazon. Seraphine Polka Dot Mock Wrap Maternity Dress

Maternity Monday: Nursing Wrap Front Dress
This jersey dress from Mamalicious looks great for work — comfortable, functional both before and after pregnancy, and also professional — love the high neckline and long sleeves. It’s $65.40 at ASOS. Mamalicious Nursing Wrap Front Dress
Washable Wednesday: Drape Front V-Neck Top
Neiman Marcus is having some crazy sales right now — lots of nice brands marked down to mall store prices. This draped V-neck top doesn’t explicitly say it’s machine washable, but I’d be shocked if it weren’t — all of my Three Dots jersey pieces are. They’re soft and just a bit more lux than … Read More about Washable Wednesday: Drape Front V-Neck Top
Feeding Tuesday: Time for a New Bra
Here’s my $.02: even if you’re nursing or pumping for a year, you should have a new bra that fits you well, even if it’s only for date nights or the occasional outing where you really want to look good in clothes. (I always found nursing bras easier to wear with pumping, but I know … Read More about Feeding Tuesday: Time for a New Bra
Everyone Thursday: Waterfall Cardigan
I’ve long admired the popular waterfall cardigan at Loft — and they’re having great sales on it. It was a wee bit lower last night, during one of their flash sales — $15 — but if memory serves it was final sale at that price. I like the different colors it’s offered in (black, “dark … Read More about Everyone Thursday: Waterfall Cardigan
Nursing Tuesday: Faux Wrap Blouse
Commenters were singing the praises of this lovely faux wrap blouse a few weeks ago. Not only is it “hand wash cold,” but it’s nursing and pumping friendly. It’s normally $68, but select colors (including the pictured) are available at Nordstrom for as low as $29. Pleione Faux Wrap Blouse
Nursing Tuesday: Nursing Tank
I’ve been eyeing this nursing tank, and may pull the trigger, even though the end feels like it’s in sight (Harrison is almost 8 months, and the plan was to nurse him for a year). I haven’t been super happy with other nursing/shapewear tanks I’ve tried, but this one seems to be missing the issues … Read More about Nursing Tuesday: Nursing Tank
Pumping Tuesday: ‘Vibrant Paisley’ Infinity Scarf
I always think of infinity scarves as being a great addition to a breastfeeding/pumping mom’s wardrobe — you can use them for extra coverage while you’re pumping, a pattern (such as this vibrant paisley) hides milk stains and other baby stains (spit up, sticky fingers, etc.), and is an easy way to add color and … Read More about Pumping Tuesday: ‘Vibrant Paisley’ Infinity Scarf
Nursing Tuesday: Split Neck Nursing Tops
If you are a nursing mother going anywhere for Thanksgiving, you need a top like this. It keeps your body just about as covered as it’s going to be while nursing — on the plane, at the terminal, when you’re at someone’s house for Thanksgiving and it’s hard to get some privacy… it’s really perfect. … Read More about Nursing Tuesday: Split Neck Nursing Tops
Nursing Tuesday: Asymmetrical Fleece Wrap Cardigan
Reader M wrote in to nominate this cardigan, noting, “I bought one a few weeks ago and I have already gotten so much use out of it. I can nurse discreetly in public without a separate cover, the fabric is warm and cozy and the shape is flattering for postpartum lumps. The fleece (a nice … Read More about Nursing Tuesday: Asymmetrical Fleece Wrap Cardigan
