Little Miss Mommy’s 3 Dress-for-Success Secrets

Need some tips on how to dress for success when you return to work post-baby (and by success I mean hiding that remaining belly bulge successfully!)?

My #1 friend right now is a great dress with a nice structured cut (preferably empire waisted to highlight “the girls" and minimize the gut) with some pretty detailing (to camouflage the tummy).

Here are 3 pretty and professional post-pregnancy options (that won't break your budget either)!

1. INC International Concepts Printed Matte Jersey Dress
The beautiful detailing elongates your torso and hides any lumps and bumps you have going on underneath.

2. Japanese Weekend Before & After Slit Front Maternity & Nursing Dress 
The fabulously bold print and forgiving cut disguise your tummy and highlight your ample bosom (assuming your breastfeeding).

3. Banana Republic Lightweight Wool Sheath Dress
Empire waist with a strong shoulder to draw the attention up to your face and not down at your post-pregnancy bump! And for me, it's pulling double duty — I'm wearing it to a wedding with pretty flowery jewelry to soften it up and to work with a belt at the waist to create a more casual look.
