Dress for baby's christening

[lisatto]

Our baby is being christened very soon and it's been a while since I've had an opportunity to dress up. Suddenly questioning my entire wardrobe as members of our family are talking about wedding-style hats and all sorts 😅

I'm open to buying something new but probably wouldn't want to spend too much unless it was something I'd get a lot of wear from at other times - say up to £60ish?

Seen a few bits I like in Phase Eight recently but nothing in my size. These, for example:

I'm 5ft 1, size 6/8, brunette, slightly tanned. If it works for breastfeeding that would be a bonus. Thanks for any ideas!

Ooh thank you - will have a look! Heard the name come up a lot recently and had been meaning to check it out.

I like the Harlow mini dress.

From a purely practical point of view, I’d go with a pattern rather than plain colour when there’s littlies around. Much more forgiving of spillages.
