Clothes to wear after birth

So I know I'll still be in stretchy trousers for a while, but I just wanted to buy a few tops that are baggy and ass-covering enough to make me feel well covered in the weeks / months post-pregnancy, but aren't giant shapeless tents. I've been wearing long strappy tops over jeans mostly throughout pregnancy, but I suspect I'll want something baggier when I'm not showing my bump, but my post-baby belly.
Not bothered about nursing specific stuff as most tops will be adaptable for that, unless there is some for decent price.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I wore quite alot of my maternity tops post birth for a while. a fair bit of what I had bought was suitable as feeding tops. H&M had some good basic tees that were long, generous and reasonably priced.

I was still so hot after having DD that I was still wearing light layers and cosy jumpers for out and about in the snow. most items were bought in the sale.

I lived in leggings and tunics - couldn't face wearing maternity jeans but couldn't fit into any others. Oh, and empire line sundresses because like kelle I was so boiling hot ALL the time that I was constantly sweaty even when wearing tons of deodorant Blush

I guess it depends on when your baby's born and the weather. My DD was born n September and it got cold quite quickly after that. Mostly wore shirt dresses with leggings, shirts with jeans or a cardigan with vest top underneath.
