Hers, Mine, Yours (Summer Giveaway #1)

UPDATE: The winner is Commenter #22, Sarah Klingensmith. Visit her at www.xanga.com/sarahk04. Congratulations, Sarah!


I'm a jeans girl in winter and a sundress girl in summer. Last year when I was great with child and huge and continuously hot, I lived in a black sundress my sister-in-law loaned me. This year I was out of luck since dresses don't work for me with a nursing babe!

But when Line Rothman, founder of Glamourmom contacted me to review another of her company's products for nursing moms, I was thrilled! Glamourmom (http://www.glamourmom.com/) carries a variety of tanks for pregnant and nursing women. They also have pajamas, swimsuits, baby bodysuits...and a tankdress!


Nursing clasps blend in with the adjustable shoulder straps so while nursing is as easy as ever, the dress does not scream "I can nurse in this!" to the casual and fashion-conscious observer. With a cranky, teething eight-month-old (wanting to nurse constantly in this sticky heat-- ugh!), it is a great staple around home. When I need to dress it up a bit, I throw on a cute jacket.


Now, for the "Yours" part: Glamourmom is offering one reader a free item of her choice from the online store! There are things for non-nursing women... and babies, too! Or think gift!


There are three ways to earn entries:
  • Earn 1 entry by commenting on this post.

Watch for my second Summer Giveaway later in the season!

    That looks wonderful, but I'd be afraid that if the top fit me, the bottom wouldn't fit my hips. I am pear-shaped. Is it A-line at all? I love their tanks though. I found some at a consignment sale and they are so soft!

    I also would love a tank dress! I am feeling dress deprived as well, Lincoln is just about 5 months and weighing in around 17 pounds. He loves to nurse:)

    I SO need this!!! A couple times we went to weddings and I wanted to wear a dress and then realized, I COULDN'T Nurse in them without taking it off!!! So had to come up with a skirt/shirt combo. I even said to my hubby, they need to come up with a nursing dress, who knew it already existed!

    Love the idea of a nursing tank-dress! How great! I've been trying to wear more dresses and skirts lately, and this would be a wonderful way to achieve that and still have comfortable access for nursing. :)
    Thanks for reminding me about this giveaway - I have been meaning to make my way over here!

    I would LOVE this! I have two sundresses that I just can't wear in public, as I'd need to completely undress to nurse...I've wanted to try this brand, but just can't afford it...

    Oh my word! I've looked for a cute dress I can wear now and haven't found anything affordable. This looks SO cute and stylish. I would love it. I wore a dress to a wedding a few weeks ago and rushed home to take it off to nurse. My husband said how much he'd enjoyed seeing me in a dress! Made me wish I had something I could wear and nurse... :)
