You look fab at 7 months post partum (my youngest is 7 months next week too!) I love your outfit, great neutrals together.

I love monochromatic ensembles! But do I spy a bright bag on your arm? The boots and skirt are great together!!

The graceful line of the skirt with boots is so pretty on you! I do like the belt, but I wonder if you might try shifting the buckle detail more to one side slightly? Putting the buckle squarely in the middle sort of highlights that area. Your waist is very trim (I wouldn't have guessed you had a baby so recently if you hadn't mentioned it - I'm new here!) but I can understand how you'd be uneasy about it. The other possibility, if symmetry is more comfortable for you, is to loosen the belt a notch or two so that it has more of a "V" shape, dipping down rather than bisecting your middle. That would also lengthen your waist a little. Great outfit!

You look great! The belt is fine. I think it is a nice touch with the shape of the skirt, the color also adds interest.

So nice to see you! I think your use of this belt "defines" the area in a good way --- lends a little structure to the area that makes you self conscious. I think you look quite trim, but I know the midsection often feels a little soft for awhile. Belts that are just a little a little wider can hide some "fluff," actually, or at least I hope the one I wore tonight did (lol). You've made a great choice by keeping this one loose and tying it casually.

Excellent job with the mix of textures and the pop of color in the bag. I love the necklace --- it's like an elegant ornament!

Thank you ladies.
I will get thicker belt to see how that works.

Hi Stuti --

I think the belt looks great on you as-is -- I wouldn't have guessed you feel self-conscious about your postpartum stomach -- but you could play around with Robinesque's suggestions as well.

Love the outfit, too!

Love neutrals with a pop of color accessory. Others have made great suggestions about the belt, and I agree that a little more off center might work a little better. This looks so clean and classy.
