My First Post-Pregnancy OOTD

Just a small dose of fashion in between all the beauty posts! My first post-pregnant OOTD. At first, I was hesitant to do this as I'm still 15 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight. However, if I wait it out till then, I'm not sure how many months since I can share any outfit entry. Dieting isn't a top priority in my life right now as I'm breastfeeding my baby girl and she needs all the nutrients she can from the food I'm eating. Add to that the increased appetite that comes with breastfeeding and — eh, what's diet?

   

Anyway, inside I'm also wearing a Belly Bandit, a binder that helps in shrinking (supposedly!) extra distended belly after giving birth. I've been wearing it for 5 weeks now and I can say it did help a lot. In the first two weeks, I could already see results. However, after eating, binging on everything I can get my hands on, I've been gaining it back little by little. But for mommas out there who just gave birth, I definitely recommend this.

Moving on, American Eagle Outfitters recently opened here in Manila (Bonifacio High Street), so recent actually that it was only 2 days ago, February 28. My sister, Raiza, was chosen to be one of their brand ambassadors which explains the white tie-dyed pair I'm wearing in this entry. It's a very comfortable pair, I tell you. To be honest, I was on tenterhooks about the brand thinking that the American Eagle heydays are long gone but who knew this pair of jeans could change that. I'm now excited to check out the store soon, as opposed to my stern feeling the other day of completely passing on the opportunity.

And finally... for my FOTD that comes with this OOTD, nothing much except for concealer (MAC Studio Finish), setting powder (The Balm Sexy Mama), blush that has already faded (MAC MSF Stereo Rose) and lipstick (MAC Impassioned - a current fave!).
