I haven't been there in ages - I will have to check it out as I really miss summer dresses! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822861 Wed, 16 May 2018 11:57:18 +0000 Mrs D 2822861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lindseykaye: I wore it with a Blazer to work yesterday - then last night wore it playing around with the kids in the back yard. I feel it would have transitioned to a night out with DH just as well. I love versatile pieces!</p> <p>We need more "Mom Style" posts!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822830 Wed, 16 May 2018 10:16:51 +0000 lindseykaye 2822830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally jumped on this bandwagon and picked up the teal color (bought two sizes to be sure since I'm pregnant right now and don't know what's best for now/later).<br /> This looks perfect for work and for dressing up or down. I'm also a frequent dress wearer and LOVE this. Hope it wears well in person :)</p> <p>Thanks for the tip @Mrs D! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822798 Wed, 16 May 2018 07:52:03 +0000 Mrs D 2822798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBucky: It is t-shirt material, but a nicer thick quality. I didnt have any panty line issues...Its also no like tight tight on me so that helps too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822775 Wed, 16 May 2018 03:41:33 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2822775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Caly: @Mrs D: I went with the taupe-purple, and the blue. All the colors are so pretty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822770 Wed, 16 May 2018 01:33:03 +0000 Littlebit7 2822770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@periwinklebee: I was just in h and m and found a ton of dresses with button fronts. They were all super comfortable, the prices were A+. Most were gathered at my natural waist and had adequate hem lengths once I found the right size (I find I have to go up a size or two there) I have stored all of my dresses too which is a shame because that’s all I used to wear in summer (and I’m not a dressy person, I’m talking pullover swing dresses from old navy...because...so easy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822769 Wed, 16 May 2018 00:09:05 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2822769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have two (of the Leith brand). The new Living in Yellow by Gibson one is almost exactly the same.

It looks like the single layer back of T-shirt material wouldn’t be as forgiving in the back asnin the front.... does it show every bump and panty line in the back??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822687 Tue, 15 May 2018 15:01:04 +0000 Caly 2822687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs D: oohh, I was looking at those colors...I may go with the green first 🤔 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822683 Tue, 15 May 2018 14:49:35 +0000 Mrs D 2822683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Caly: I went with heather grey...going back for one of the Blues shortly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-most-flattering-mom-dress-ever#post-2822681 Tue, 15 May 2018 14:39:44 +0000 Caly 2822681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs D: awesome, thanks!

I have an entire box of dresses tucked away while nursing. Try wrap dresses or stretchy v-neck dresses. I bought some on Amazon just recently.

I saw her post this dress and I was immediately intrigued...she mentioned in her post that it sells out frequently...so I bought it. Its from Nordstroms so free shipping and returns if necessary...low risk. It is the greatest dress ever. Could be dressed up or down. SO comfortable, so flattering....I am in love with it and buying another one.</p> <p>I know there are always lots of posts of people looking for good staple pieces - so I figured I'd share one. FWIW - I am 5'5" 168lbs...so curvy and imperfect...and its very flattering.</p> <p><a href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/leith-ruched-body-con-tank-dress/3741346?origin=PredictiveSearchProducts" rel="nofollow">https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/leith-ruched-body-con-tank-dress/3741346?origin=PredictiveSearchProducts</a> </p> [attach=2617/18/p8s4vv.391x600._102771762.jpg]
