Thanks for visiting!I am a huge fan of Victoria’s Secrets Soft & Sexy Wrap.  It’s not marketed for maternity and nursing wear, but that’s what so special about it.  It’s a good wardrobe investment that you can wear for years to come.  […]

While checking out the massive discounts over at Victoria’s Secret right now (It seems sexy lingerie isn’t in high demand during a recession), I noticed a category “Nursing.”  I clicked it and low and behold, there were two nursing bras:

I, for one, can’t get enough Scandinavian design. I love the clean lines of the furniture and the colorful children’s clothing designs.
