Being in the newborn bubble can sometimes mean countless days of wearing trackies and milk stained tops. It’s easy to to fall into a fashion rut because comfort and practicality do become the central focus. And rightly so, there’s important work to be done.
For this reason I’ve set myself a goal of dressing up ever so slightly at least every other day, even if I’ll just be pottering around the house. Because I love fashion and I’ve noticed that when I personally put in that little bit of extra effort I feel better about myself and ready to tackle the world.
But comfort and practicality are a key, and today’s outfit is a perfect example of bringing in some style whilst still ensuring I’m ready and able to run after a toddler and care for a newborn.
Firstly is Adrift’s ‘Ava Billow Sleeve Shirt’. Made with 100% linen, it’s ideal for this time of year and an essential style for any chic modern wardrobe. Featuring a statement raglan balloon sleeve and finished with shirred cuffs, it’s dramatic yet relaxed. And the v neck open collar and button down front means it’s flattering whilst being practical for breastfeeding, which is a must now a days.
Teamed together with Adrift’s ‘Boyfriend Jean’, which are super comfortable, this outfit is a simple yet classic look that can be worn casually or dressed up for when I venture outside of the house.
Classic style & modern features, with comfort and practicality in mind. The perfect combination for this tired and busy mama.
