Postpartum summer fashion advice

Anyone else have no idea what to wear in this warm weather? I’m 7 months postpartum and still carrying my pregnancy weight and dealing with a bit of an apron belly. I bought some light, wide legged stretchy trousers and some dresses thinking they’d be ok for warmer weather and holiday but they don’t look good especially around my stomach.
Anyone have any fashion advice on what to wear? Ideally good for warm temperatures but not tight fitting - particularly around the stomach. I don’t love my arms at the moment but appreciate covering them up isn’t always possible when it’s hot! Everything I see that looks nice on others just doesn’t sit the same on myself.

I’m 5ft 3 and a UK size 14. Please help 😁

Follow Lottie Drynan on insta? I’m way past your stage but she seems to have some nice outfits post partum.
