Pear shapes with a mum tum...

What are you wearing?
Pre kids I’d always wear something fitted on the top and looser on the bottom but now I’m really conscious of my mum tum so live in smock dresses but want something more flattering.

Wrap tops, wrap dresses, and skirts which used to be called skater skirts but now seem to be called flippy skirts

@Reclinehard thanks. See I don’t have any sort of cleavage so I feel uncomfortable in wrap tops, I have worn wrap dresses in the past though with a vest top underneath.

Today I'm wearing skinny jeans and a T-shirt. I wear slightly long T-shirts which skim my 4times c section amorphous blob belly in the correct size. I think I look ok for my age and size. I have lost about 3 stone since last December, so maybe my new ounce of confidence is kidding me

Fit and flare dresses
Dresses with a-line skirts
Dresses with Bardot tops
Avoid dresses with pleats in the skirts, or pencil dresses

For a casual look I find M&S Mom jeans with a teeshirt really comfy and quite flattering.

Otherwise wide leg trousers and a fitted top.

A line skirts are always good too.
