yoga to go
Inner strength is wonderful, but
sometimes you'd settle for something great to wear.
You're anxious to get back in shape after the baby - but you can't quite fit into
your pre-pregnancy workout clothes yet (and you'd rather show up at the gym naked
than in your ratty old sweats). Raising a Racquet has you covered - literally. Its
ready-to-go boxed yoga set features stretchy boot cut pants, a tank top and a
zip-up hoodie, all in flattering (read: slimming) black. Although the set is
designed for expectant moms, the cut and fabric work perfectly during that "in
between" postpartum phase. Best of all, the pieces - combined or separately - are
chic enough to wear outside of the studio, so once you're suited up for your
workout, you're dressed for the day. Comes in sizes small, medium, large and
extra large, packed in a handy to-go box for moms on a mission.
$108,
866-RAR-3388; raisingaracquet.com.

the family jewels
Mama Jewels helps take the guesswork out of breastfeeding.
Doctors and lactation consultants recommend that women breastfeed evenly on both
breasts to ensure maximum milk production and prevent clogged milk ducts. But
when days are blurring into nights, it may be hard to remember which side you
nursed on last. In the past, some women clipped a safety pin to their bra strap
as a reminder; Mama Jewels make such homely hardware obsolete. Fashioned out of
Swarovski crystals and silver beads, the decorative "side minders" can be slipped
over bra straps, tank tops or bathing suits as a handy, chic way of keeping
score. Show the world you're proud to be a nursing mom, and feel great about the
fact that a portion of proceeds from every sale is donated to breast cancer
research.
In green, blue, pink or clear; $9.95, 866-40-FRESH;
