My co-worker, the always lovely Eileen McCurdy, has been wanting to see me in this dress since I showed her the online store picture.  But I recently told her why I could not wear it to work for her to see, and after giggling at me she said, “Blog about it.”  So Eileen this one’s for you!

The dress is one of my latest acquisitions from ShopRuche and I must say that I absolutely love it!  But here’s the problem (and it’s one I should have thought of earlier, but it probably wouldn’t have stopped me from buying the dress): it’s got a high neck and back zipper.  Now why is that a problem you ask?  Simply this:  I can’t wear it to work or for more than a few hours at a time. Why you ask again?  Because as a nursing mom I need to pump milk at work or when I’m out for longer times spans, and this dress doesn’t allow that.  I need easy access to my boobs! So that’s why I can’t wear this dress to work, and why it must remain in my closet unworn until I stop nursing. I can’t be striping down to my knickers in the bathroom and playing with back zippers.  I need to be able to whip those puppies out whenever and wherever I need to!
