Fresh air, some sunshine, a little warmth and breastfeeding at the park in front of strangers… Well, the first parts are fun.  Clothes with easy access for nursing moms can be hard to come by. But fear not, you don’t have to turn in your style card when you have a new baby.  Here’s a few spring styles available at Hip to be Round for spring 2015 that we can’t wait to get our hands on.

 Basket Weave Nursing Maxi
Believe it or not this nursing/maternity maxi dress has a hidden nursing panel right behind the top basket weave.  Works great for maternity and falls completely flat for a no-way-that’s-maternity look postpartum.

 Zahra Applique Dress
Pleats and draped fabric hide easy nursing access just below the detailed neckline. Bonus: you can wear this one pregnant too!

Must Have Maxi Dress
Keep it simple with this solid maxi dress, seam lifts for easy nursing access.

 Ikat Nursing Dress
This dress leaves a little room for that post-belly-belly to create a flattering fit, nursing access is hidden just behind the panel.

Gemma Nursing Dress
Cute print: check.  Spring colors: check. Nursing access: check.

Enja Cap Sleeve Dress
Perfect dress for work which is great, because the word “pumps” has taken a whole new meaning.

Britney Bubble Top
Dresses not your style? We’re loving the watercolor print.  Front pleating covers nursing panel and provides a flattering not-too-snug fit.

Express Nursing Tank
Can’t go wrong with a nautical stripe. This nursing tank is super cute on it’s own or paired with a light cardigan for spring.

Shop all the new arrivals and try them on in person.

Pantone Color Forecast for Fall 2012

We love orange with neutrals like this combo from Design-Seeds

Orange has gained popularity in recent years (Tangerine Tango was the color of the year last year) which is great because it’s bright, sunny, rich and autumnal all at once.

So, since it’s August, and that’s only one step away from everything pumpkin spice, let’s talk about the do’s and don’t of wearing Koi.

Do: Use orange to spice up neutrals; we love koi with steel, navy, nude & brown.

Don’t: be afraid to wear orange if you can’t wear it next to your face. Break it up with a chunky brown necklace or tone it down with a neutral cardigan.

Do: wear it to your baby shower! Not that you must wear blue or pink, but orange makes a fun, gender neutral color to wear to your shower which is especially fun if you’re not finding out.

Try grey and orange for an alternative if you’re tired of browns.

Don’t: shy away from wearing it in the winter.  True, orange is synonymous with fall, but that doesn’t mean it’s hands off after November. Ward off the dreary days of January and wear a splash of orange with dark denim and a grey cardigan (you can even wear those basic black flats you’ve been living in).

Do: tread carefully when pairing with black lest we look like a pumpkin on Halloween.  If you’re unsure, skip the black, not the orange.

Do: Try orange instead of red. I love red, don’t get me wrong, but koi makes a great statement in an unpredictable way.

One of the great things about your maternity wardrobe is that it gives you a chance to try out a few new trends and wear some things you don’t normally wear (after all, unless you’re a Duggar, you’re not typically pregnant). So even if orange isn’t in your safe-zone – stop in and give it a try!

Left to Right: Orange paired with chocolate brown, black and navy.

Is anyone else planning on giving Koi a try this winter? What is your favorite thing to pair with orange?
