Hi I think everyone is different but I really couldn't get dressed easily after. Tracksuit bottoms and a zip up top is what I wore. I still needed help with the zip up top though xx

Re: Post op tops ?
I personally struggled a bit for the first few days but everyone is different.I was fine to do my shirt after my op but needed help with my jeans.I wasn't able to lift my hands up.
I would go for shirt, cardigan, tracksuit bottoms - not exactly glamorous but hey! X

Re: Post op tops ?
I wore a boyfriend style shirt. Don't wear anything fitted as it can be hard to put your arms into the arm holes! Slip on ballet pumps would be good as easy on/off. Spaghetti strap vests are good as you can pull up over hips rather then over head. I wouldn't wear anything tight as you might have dressings/bands that could end up being on show! I think I could have put make up, but really didn't care what I looked like! Maybe take a tinted moisturiser and mascara to feel remotely human! x

I wore a shirt with skinny jeans and cardigan. I managed to get dressed myself. Then at home it was track bottoms and hoodie! I didn't put on makeup but like someone else said if I had I prob would have managed to apply something lol. Good luck x

Re: Post op tops ?
head to new look, and get a £3 spaghetti strap top in a size up, that way you can step into it if you cant go over your head. Then I suggest layers, its gonna be chilly, so zip through hoodie, coat. Something comfy and easy, so joggers or leggings, and a slip on shoe, nothing that requires tugging. and honestly, make up will be the last thing on your mind!
Personally, I threw on some leggings and a nightshirt over my undies and went home like that, but hubs was driving, so less in public! (although that's pretty much what I wear while flying anyway!)

Re: Post op tops ?
I wore a track suit zip up top with just macom underneath. Didn't really care at that point. I was more concerned about bumps and pot holes while hubby drove me home. Slip on shoes are a must or lose trainers you can push your feet into without pulling. Just a thought, the airport security may ask you to put arms up while checking you. Tell them you can't. Xx
