Mom's with fuller figures after birth
after having 2 kids in 2 years my body is totally different (aka larger) I can't find styles that suit me (I always wore Ann Taylor Loft) and I go back to work in a week All the tops at loft are stretchy and accentuate my rolls.
What brands/styles do you think worked for you? I a size 12/14 on the bottom and have a very large muffin top.
Any ideas/suggestions for a depressed badly dressed mom?

Re: Mom's with fuller figures after birth
have you tried NY and Co? i am much bigger on top than on bottom and they clothes are so flattering - some tops are tight but most are not, and their pants fit me really well.
ETA: i had a serious muffin top before DS and i know it will be even worse now, i gained a lot of weight in my hips, NY and Co. is great for hiding that

Re: Mom's with fuller figures after birth
First of all !!! Don't worry about your muffin top & rolls, we all got 'em!!!!
Try NY&Co or Kohls. I used to get a lot of stuff from Macy's too.

Re: Mom's with fuller figures after birth
3/4 sleeve button down tops look the best
you can put them with pants or skirts,cropped pants,capris and its a nice clean look
Kohls has them for like $18

Re: Mom's with fuller figures after birth
I was larger after birth - like an 8/10 - but I did really well at Old Navy and I think H&M.... I didn't want to spend too much money because I knew it was temporary.....

They have the hi-risers that come up under your bra.... They are amazing for hiding the muffin tops.
