Please help me I'm lost in a post-baby fashion wilderness

Another one in need of a wardrobe update post baby. I'm feeling a bit lost by my new shape and role in life. I am 35 and unsure what I can wear anymore (at my age). My post baby body is currently size 12 and I am 5ft 4. I have a bit of a wobbly midriff and I am bfeeding so boobs around a C/D cup.

I have a 3.5 yo and a 4mo to contend with and live in a muddly village in the middle of nowhere so heels though lovely will not be possible to wear. I would like to feel up to date and fashionable and attractive.

I have recently purchased these, which look good (if slightly tight on the waist) but I'm not sure what to wear with them .

I am mainly wearing long sleeved t shirts, jeans (bootcut) and fleeces (Patagonia) . I tend not to wear black.

My hair could do with an update too but that could be a whole other thread.

Thank you lovely ladies. I await your wisdom with baited breath.

Today I wore my new jeans and this and I thought I looked much improved.

I am going to wear new jeans and boots tomorrow to school. Will hopefully find something else in wardrobe to go with them.

Thanks everyone for your help.
