Building a Postpartum-Friendly Spring Wardrobe (with Old Navy)
At 2 months postpartum, it feels like a new season is upon me in more ways than one. Not only is the winter melting away into longer warmer days, but I’m also at the point in my physical recovery where maternity clothes are no longer necessary. I’m definitely ready to shed my leggings and oversized sweaters for lighter layers and fresh colours.
With that being said, I don’t exactly have a budget for a new wardrobe. A friend gave me a gift card for Old Navy so I resolved to find a few staple pieces that could integrate with my existing wardrobe while still bringing something fresh. The other day they were having a 40% off everything sale, so I picked out a few pairs of linen-like pants and a few basic t-shirts - the perfect versatile pieces to bridge the gap as my body continues to change over this next year of postpartum, but that still bring some much needed style to my current season of life.
I’m not going to even pretend that I’m a fashion blogger, but I did put together a few outfit ideas with some of the basic pieces I purchased combined with the items I already have in my wardrobe. I thought it may be fun to share here in a very casual way to inspire you if you’re in a similar season of life. The new pieces I added are a pair of beige tapered linen pants, a pair of rust wide-leg linen pants, a dark grey t-shirt and a white t-shirt. Everything else in these outfits are either items I already have or items similar to clothing I already have.

I love the loose, comfortable fit of all these outfits and appreciate that they can be dressed up or down depending on the shoes and accessories I pair with them. Perfect to go from pushing the stroller for a walk in to a lunch date or dinner with friends. What outfits would you wear?
