How to update your wardrobe when losing weight Part 2

When you’re a mum, chucking on a dress is so easy. It’s the one outfit where the only thing that needs to be thought about is the accessories and shoes. For me, I’m still breastfeeding so I needed to find a dress where the neckline was easy to pull down for booby access. This Spicy Sugar Kaftan Dress was the answer. It has a belt that can cinch in the waist or at the hips which will look even better when I lose those extra post baby kilos.

I bought this cobalt blue Kaftan dress from my local Boutique and I know that I’m going to get a lot of wear out if it even when my tummy and hips start to shrink because Kaftans are meant to be flowy and a belt can do wonders for your silhouette.

Living in Queensland and going to the beach for our annual holiday also means that this dress will come in handy as a summer beach cover up and because I’m fair, I love that it covers my back and shoulders… although I will need to be careful where the open sleeves bare my white arms.

I have worn this dress twice when having guests over because it is one those versatile dresses that can be dressed up or down. In this picture I’m wearing my Emily Green Bead necklace and matching turquoise earrings as well as my Coral Pink Flat Sandals bought last season from London Rebel.
