As a work-at-home mom to four, getting ready in the mornings has to be quick and easy. And my outfits? They need to be comfy, and something I can move around easily in. There's nothing like chasing around your baby in a skirt that keeps creeping up. As tempted as I am to simply throw on my favorite pair of yoga pants and my go-to Target tee (which I have in about every color) every morning, I'm now attempting to get it together. Or at least look like I've got it together.
Hence this blog. This blog is my {creative} way of holding myself accountable everyday.
Over six months ago I started working from home and I found it super glorious that I could literally roll out of bed wearing the yoga pants I already had on for PJs from the night before and start my day. If you told me then that I might miss wearing normal clothes on a daily basis, I would have told you that you were crazy. But it's true. I miss clothes. And I kind of miss having somewhere to wear them! I've started this blog as an excuse to wear real clothes again and and as a way to find my own mommy style. After hitting the big three-oh (30), I realized it might be time to move on from the old tees and jeans trick.
With that, I bring you this blog's first outfit!
Denim/Chambray Top: Target (similar) | Maxi Skirt: Target (similar) | Mint Sandals: Target (similar) | Bangles: Target (similar) | Necklace: Target
This particular outfit is super comfy! As ready as I am for warmer weather, I love this spring style for its comfortable layers. And it wouldn't be spring without a splash of color, so I've gathered up a few mint accessories to jazz things up a bit. It's a bit chilly here yet, although there are no complaints from me because the snow has finally melted. Yay!
Leave a comment and let me know what colors you are digging for spring!
Welcome to blogging! It's fun, and really is such a great creative outlet. As is putting together cute outfits... love that you've done the chambray unbuttoned with a maxi skirt. Super practical and comfortable but still polished and cute! Love the mint too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement, Anne!
DeleteI am in the same boat! I've been working from home for over a year and half and it took me a long time to realize the importance of getting dressed everyday (although I was pregnant for 9-10 months of that so I feel like either way I wouldn't have gotten dressed).
ReplyDeleteI have since changed my attitude and I try to out on real clothes every day! I do let myself wear yoga pants on Monday though because Mondays are hard enough as it is ;)
Welcome to blogging land!
I love the idea of giving yourself a day to enjoy yoga pants, Mondays are the worst!!
DeleteI love layers too! And I like the pop of color you added here, very much like mint as an added touch. I'm currently loving gold as accessory colors. Found you through the chambray linkup, and I really like your style, can't wait to see what else you got!
