Clothes suitable for breastfeeding in?

I have a 2 month old baby & am breastfeeding, but struggling to find clothes that give me easy enough access. At the moment I'm living in vest tops with a shirt/cardigan over the top, but I'm getting bored of that look now. Can anyone recommend any brands for nursing tops/dresses? I've been looking around at the usual high street stuff too, but most of the things I like would need removing in order to feed!

Jojo do some but to be honest they are a bit mumsy, shrink when tumbledried (and you'll wash them frequently) and generally have button fastenings which are a bit draughty if it's cold.

I had a summer baby and mostly went with a vest top overlaid with a lighter top; or wore something inappropriate and used a feeding burqa thingy :-) I found that going up a size or two left enough space to pull up a top without wrestling about too much. The White Company were good for loose fitting tops that fit nicely around the shoulders but didn't swamp me.

I got a few dresses/tunics from frugi that are for breastfeeding, they are pricey but they sell well on eBay and you can bung them in tumble dryer and don't need ironed! I've also got a few mamas and papas breastfeeding dresses from eBay, pretty cheap and I'll sell on once finished with them! Grin Grin Grin
