5 Ways to Ditch the Mom Look

I’m a Mom. I think that’s pretty much been established on this blog. It’s not something I hide or would ever want to hide. Yet, I definitely believe that women need to ditch the Mom look. You know which one I mean. It’s the look that says I care and nurture others but not myself. Ladies, this needs to stop! You are amazing, inspiring, and beautiful. Let the world know it! Not sure how? I noted 5 Ways to Ditch the Mom Look below.

ADD COLOR

Color makes you pop. Add as much or as little as you like! Whether it’s a blouse, an accessory or a fab pair of pumps, adding color says, “I’m alive. I’m happy. I’m beautiful!” And, you are.

BLING IT OUT

I’m all about the bling. It’s an easy way to update an outfit without breaking the bank. In fact, you should always bling it out! Grab a statement piece that screams you. Btw, name rings, name necklaces, name anything are totally in! And, what better way to remember you are your own person than by wearing your name?!

SHOW OFF YOUR CURVES

Ok, let’s get real. Sometimes, our curves are not as curvy as they used to be. No worries! I’ll let you in on a secret. There is a way to create curves where they ahem seem to have disappeared. Use belts. I am totally loving this belt from Scoop NYC! Best part, it’s only $9 on sale. Scoop this one up! It’s HOT.

DITCH THE MOM JEANS

You know the ones I’m talking about. Those jeans you wear all the time because they are just so, so comfortable. Those are Mom jeans. Not. Pretty. Ladies. I know. I’ve been there. We all have. But, life should be more than comfortable. It should be exciting. It should be an adventure. It should say “I’m here. I’m alive. I’m a MOTHER… and I want everyone to notice!” Because we only have one life to live, ditch the Mom jeans. Trust me on this one. It will absolutely change your life.

DRESS IT UP

This one is important. Three words that you must never forget: DRESS. IT. UP. You’re older now. You no longer need to browse in the teen section, even if you fit in the clothes. You are one classy, sophisticated Mama, even when you have baby spit on you. Don’t doubt it! If you can conquer the terrible twos and potty training, than you best believe that you are an adult, who deserves to dress it up. FOR YOU. Not for the significant other, not because you have a special event, but because you, my dear, are WORTH IT. So, go ahead give yourself permission to dress up. And, remember there’s a reason why little girls like to play dress up – twirling really does bring joy.

So, here’s to Moms and to ditching the Mom look!
