Pirose Review & Giveaway CLOSED

My biggest problem with nursing the baby is how to feed her in public. At school I find an empty classroom so I don't need to cover up. Even so, sometimes people just walk in thinking the room is empty, and I have to quickly shield my chest from curious eyes. One reason why I don't use covers is because they can be really hot, so the baby and I are both sweltering long before she's done eating. Another problem is that they don't always look nice and you can really only use them for nursing. You'd never want to just put one on as an accessory. Also, many nursing covers are bulky and don't fit into my diaper bag.The Pirose for Nursing was "invented by a nursing mother. It's is a lightweight, breathable nursing scarf like no other on the market. Designed for new mothers who refuse to sacrifice style for function, the revolutionary Pirose works as a multi-way nursing scarf and fashion accessory providing discreet coverage and a stylish touch.
With modern prints and subtle florals, Pirose offers a wide array of designs to suit any new mother's style, while still offering complete nursing coverage.
Graceful, elegant feminine and beautiful, Pirose is a stylish blend of fashion and function for new mothers. Depending on your style, each Pirose comes in a length and design to complement any look."
My Take
The pictures I took show only two of the many ways you can wear the Pirose. There are actually 12 different ways to wear the Pirose, and it's easy to create each different look. It also comes in different sizes, so you can completely personalize your look. For me, I chose the largest size so I would be able to use it as a nursing cover. The first picture taken shows just how much coverage I will get when I want to nurse the baby. I can have no fears of flashing people around me! Then, when I'm done, I can tie it into a pretty scarf rather than stuffing it into my diaper bag. It does, however, come with its own carrying case if I do choose to put it in the diaper bag. Because it's made of 100% polyester, it can fit into even the most crammed diaper bag, and it's machine washable, too!
The Pirose is also incredibly lightweight and breathable. There's no way I could get hot under this, even on a hot summer day. My only concern is that because it's so light, you can almost see through the material, which would defeat the purpose of covering up. But, since the baby is basically shielding the majority of the breast with her head, it shouldn't be an issue. Because it's so light, I can also use the Pirose to lightly cover her car seat to keep the sun off on a hot day without worrying about her getting overheated.
The Pirose is really the ultimate fashion accessory for the nursing mom.
Cost: You can buy the Pirose for $35 + shipping. ($$$$)
Overall: We give the Pirose an 9/10!
