Can anyone find me a casual day dress it's possible to BF in?

Okay, so I'm trying to move away from wearing jeans every day. Partly because it's boring and partly because I have a sneaky suspicion that with my substantial mummy tummy and large bottom, they look a bit shite.

I can never decide whether I'm an apple or pear, but my boobs, even when BFibg, aren't very big. My tummy has always been quite large and wobbly but now, 5 months after the birth of DC2, things really aren't good. I'm a 12/14.

I'm looking to find a casual dress that I can wear with flat, knee high, riding style boots and thick tights or leggings. I have these in brown and black.

So - can anyone help me?!

Shirt dress I find that the more structure I have around my shoulders/neck, the more balanced i look. I am also an undecided apple pear. Disclaimer: I have never bfed, so I am not sure if the buttons are a good way to go or not...

Biker dress Same idea with the structure, but a bit more extreme with the zip. I'm probably miles out with these, but hopefully someone who actually has a clue about bfeeding will help out soon

Thank you - I definitely like the shirt dress and think I could BF quite happily in that, poss with the aid of a scarf. I'm not so keen on the Biker dress, though.

I'm also interested in what you say about structure and balance - food for though!

a friend of mine got a dress from 'babes with babies' she said was very comfortable

There's this one from Frugi [http://www.welovefrugi.com/mother/nursing-wear/breastfeeding-dresses/breastfeeding-dress/]

There was a code doing the rounds a while ago - 'smurfs' that gave 10% off too.

Sorry, not sure what happened with the link there. This should be it:

I really like that last one - might give it a shot! Thanks all.

I have also been looking and am tempted by this. Might be a bit short for every day here
