Fashionable Mom

Is it possible to be mom and be fashionable at the same time? Why is
it so hard for others to believe or grasp that being anyone can turn into
a fashionable mom....anyone!
You’re a mom and you’re still thinking about being
‘fashionable’? That’s the kind of response I got from someone I went
shopping with. All I did was go shopping with this mom and when we passed
a fashion outlet selling fashionable clothing and apparel, I commented
that I wanted to get that frilly pink top with splashes of lime green that
is flying off the shelves with a 70% discount tag!
Is it wrong to be a mom and still want to be fashionable? In my
personal opinion, there’s absolutely NOTHING WRONG with wanting to be a
fashionable mom! Being mom doesn’t mean that we have to give up our rights
to being fashionable, beautiful and healthy. Being mom doesn’t mean that
our lives and the entire focus of living has shifted from ‘us’ to
‘family’. Of course, without a smidgen of a doubt, being mom zaps your
energy and any mom with a sense of fashion can tell you that it takes a
lot to be a fashionable mom.
It already takes so much effort to dress up the kids…imagine trying to
find time matching fashionable tops with fashionable skirts…and then find
the blasted fashionable handbag with the same color and tone to go with
the same-colored fashionable shoes! What an effort!
When we used to be single, trying to be in fashion didn’t used to be
such an effort, did it? In fact, pulling out fashionable clothing off the
shelves and donning them seems to come so naturally to most of us when we
are young and LOOKING! Now that we’re not looking anywhere else but at our
kids, we find it such an effort just to be fashionable?
And yet, being a fashionable mom is still possible! ABSOLUTELY !
All it takes is some effort, planning and some common sense. And work at
it!!
