The Nappy Ladys Fashion Notes:
Tracey and Michaela
Tracey and Michaela are off to town wearing a specially designed Jo Robertson Maternity Outfit. This light weight maternity / breast feeding dress is super cool especially for the hot summer months ahead. And doesn't Michaela look super cute in her gorgeous matching skirt and light summer top that Jo put together especially for today. Tracey and Michaela are also wearing a matching Silverado charm bracelet from Baby Bling that is just like this one I have here. You can get all sorts of different charms for different occasions. They also have a savvy Kathy Van Zeeland Handbag each. And Michaela is also wearing a Tots Bots Easy Fit Bamboo washable Nappy.
Juliet and Marcel
Juliet is wearing one of her very own designs from Womama. This dress is called a birthing dress and has been designed especially for skin to skin contact after the birth which assists breast feeding. These dresses are fantastic for pregnancy, birth and beyond In fact I am wearing the raspberry version today as well. Juliet has used an Egg maternity wrap over top of the wrap dress which makes it a bit more formal. Her skip hop nappy bag from Nature Baby looks great with this outfit and the smart mum teething necklace and bangle top it off nicely.
Marcel is wearing a Nz Made Hand Embroided Dimples Outfit. This is made from 100% organic cotton and is very soft to touch. I love the chocolate colour of the matching shorts and hat. It is such a classic colour combination. Marcel is also wearing a cloth nappy...His nappy is a Pocket Nappy with a bamboo insert From Nappy Days and to top of his outfit, he has a very cute educational watch from Baby Bling!
Katrina and Ella-Rose
Katrina is wearing a classic maternity top from Mobea Maternity along with their matching black pencil line skirt. This combination could be worn for many occasions - Dress it down with jeans or black pants. Katrina is also sporting a stunning piece of jewellery from Wild Jewels. This Sea star necklace really brings out the green in the top and with the matching earrings you will feel a million dollars.
Ella-Rose has been dressed by Nature Baby. This sweet outfit is made out of organic cotton. The hat is great for summer and her kimono style top will keep her nice and cool. She is wearing a Bum Genius Cloth Nappy from Nature Baby and also a precious signet bracelet from Baby Bling.
Rachael and Catja
Rachael is wearing Black Mobea maternity pants with a vibrant red Egg nursing top. This outfit is ultra comfortable, looks great on its own. But if you add a Fire Pearl Necklace from Wild Jewels this transforms this to a great outfit to go out in. Doesn't she look stunning?
Catja had been dressed in Dimples by Jane - Ann. She is wearing some of their latest collection of Honeycomb Organic baby wear. She has on a Jacket with matching pants, booties and beanie. Dimples are made in New Zealand and every piece that Catja is wearing has been individually hand embroyded. And if you look closely, you will be able to see her gorgeous set of Little Pearls for Little Girls a matching necklace and bracelet that would be a fantastic keepsake for any little girl.
Julie and Cooper
Julie is wearing a fantastic summer barbeque outfit for any expecting or breast feeding mother. These jeans with their super stretchy waist from Egg Maternity are so comfy you will want to wear them every day. The shirt is so light and the cut of the shirt will easily hide a new mummy tummy. Julie also has a Wild jewels Paua necklace, bracelet and earrings. Don't forget that groovy denim Nappy Bag from Egg as well. What a great casual look!
Cooper is wearing a Nature Baby striped Tiki Logo Top with light cotton brown shorts and a Bum Genius Nappy. If you look at his neck you will see something called an amber teething necklace from Baby Bling. Wearing Amber close to the skin is a traditional European remedy for teething. It works like a natural analgesic and its healing effect will help to calm your baby without resorting to drugs. (Please supervise your child at all times while wearing the Amber Teething Necklace).
Tracey and Marcel
Tracey is wearing a Womama breastfeeding nighty. As you can see it looks just like a dress so you can bling it up and wear it out if you want to. This has a nursing bra attached to it but for the early breast feeding days you may also like to wear some extra nursing support at night like this sweet strawberry kisses lingerie from Womama. It is super soft organic cotton providing optimum comfort at all times.
Here is Marcel again in great kiwi style... just a nappy and sun hat ready to go play in the sandpit. Marcel is wearing a Tots Bots modern cloth nappy. This is what they call an all in one nappy. It is only one piece to put on and it is made from bamboo which is why it is so trim fitting. These nappies are perfect for sensitive skin because of the natural antibacterial qualities of the bamboo
Our Final Outfit is from one of New Zealand's most well known designers, Trelise Cooper.
