Would you wear this jacket with a dress?

I can only wear dresses due to my post-pregnancy size. This jacket, though not a fashion statement, is light, warm and looks a bit stylish (I think) but would it go with dresses or just jeans?

sorry, but no. I don't think it would go with dresses at all, and I don't like it, so I would not wear it with jeans either. What size and shape are you? Maybe we can find you a better option

My shape is currently a challenging affair Hmm. Post-pregnancy (c-section?) overhang, big bottom and thighs. I guess I am a pear shape ca. Size 16. I have never had much of a tummy before so am really stuck for flattering ideas now.

I can definitely not wear jeans at the moment so am stuck with leggings and black dresses! I am alsomstill bf. In a way, any fashion advice is welcome Grin.

What about a jersey blazer? something similar to this, which can add a scarf to when it gets colder?

Obviously I can't do links today, but I was looking for some kind of blazer, which would be structured but not tight. Something made of jersey, so that it is not overly formal.

If you're looking for a down coat to wear over a dress when you're out, I'd get a knee length one, unless you're wearing longer dresses, in which case I'd get a 3/4 one.
