Ready for a hot take? Dressing for a postpartum summer is actually *the best.*
Think about it: You’re a new mom, ready to put on “real” clothes after wearing lounge sets on repeat, and want an outfit that makes you feel cute without much effort. And what does a summer wardrobe require? Easy tanks, flowy dresses, and slip-on sandals. No logistical gymnastics trying to figure out layers, no need to pull out pre-pregnancy denim, and no annoying-to-put-on-and-take-off boots. Just simple staples that make for a fuss-free, totally flattering postpartum. Case, made.
So if postpartum dressing is part of your summer plans, we’ve put together a few outfit ideas for you. Think: simple, cute, and featuring the most adorable accessory you’ll ever wear (that precious new babe of yours!).
Look No. 1
Pull-on denim that fits through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond? Say less. Paired with a flowy white blouse and an iconic red wrap? Perfection.
Jeans / Blouse / Wrap / Sandals / Lip balm
Look No. 2
In case you missed it: Overalls are back. (Honestly, they never left) Pair them with a cute blouse underneath and they immediately go from farm-girl to fashion.
Look No. 3
Pants for summer? If they’re linen, we say YES. Super breathable, super comfy, and they’ll go with literally anything. A wardrobe staple.
Pants / Sweater / Wrap / Clogs / Baby jammies
Look No. 4
A crisp white button down and denim are the outfit equivalent of a pb+j—classic, easy, and always a hit. And if you ask us, they make the perfect backdrop for a pop of red.
Button-down / Shorts / Wrap / Baby jammies / Scrunchie
