Ladies, I'm very much hoping to purchase for myself some cozy jumpers / dresses to wear around the house and out on errands. They can be simple solid colors or lovely floral prints. From tailored to a looser fit. I'm interested in them all. What do you recommend? Oh, and I'm VERY interested in buying online! Thanks so much!!! :o)

If you are interested in nursing dresses and are on the smaller side, wallypop.net has Milk and Wild Honey dresses on sale fro $25/piece. I'd buy 'em out, but, I have no $$$ to spend on clothes right now!

I have a corduroy jumper that I had made.. I sent her the fabric but she may have some as well.

Vessels of Mercy

the fabric I bought was a tone on tone fine wale corduroy print and it's so pretty, that it's hard to wear for just everyday.. but it's so cozy to wear.

I just checked out Jodie's suggestion - Vessels of Mercy.
I happen to love split skirts. They are so practical and comfortable. Wearing a jumper just doesn't work for me.   Because of a large bra size I always look pregnant or just dowdy wearing one.   I wish I could wear them.
I can't offer any neat websites, but one word of advice. Buy natural materials with a tad bit of stretch in it. Stretch is just wonderful.

Stephanie - that's what I liked about having the jumper made for me.. I did have them made for pregnancy with a raised waist.. but unlike something off the rack.. the bust size and waist size actually fit ME.. so the waist isn't hanging too big (makes you look pregnant) in order to fit around the bust.
