Fashion Fiesta with the Mom Uniform


One of my favorite reads, Big Mama, is hosting a Spring Fashion Fiesta. The idea is to post our Mom Uniform. What do we really wear?

So, I'll confess I use the term fashion very loosely. Here is the picture for proof.



The outfit on the left is what I wear around the house. And to be totally honest, sometimes I wear it to the park, grocery store, or a play date.


Simply multiply that graphic tee by 3, maybe 4, and you've got my casual wardrobe. Once summer hits, I might toss in a tank for variety. Exciting huh? The shoes are knock-offs, but very, very comfy.


The outfit on the right is what I wear for pretty much any other occasion that requires me to look presentable but casual.


Multiply that black shirt by, well, a lot. They all look a bit different, but they are all pretty much black.


I wish I could say multiply the jeans by a lot, but sadly, I've yet to squeeze into the rest of my regular jeans. (Baby Girl is two months.) So, these jeans are pretty much it.


The shoes are some basic black flats which do not at all look like they belong anywhere near warm weather. But, they match and sometimes that is all I can manage.


There you have it--my momiform (yes, I made up that word). Add a little toddler snot and some baby spit-up and my accessories are complete. Well, except for the ginormous diaper bag carrying everything I just might need.


Be sure to visit Big Mama to see hers and others' closet contents. Have fun!

Yes a summer tank is perfection. I love that I'm not the only one who has lots of black in my closet. I can't seem to walk away from buying just one more black tee at the store. It's just so classic.

You look great! And with a 2 month old-(and 2 other children...) I'm impressed!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I love flats for dressing up. I would break my neck in heels, I just know I would.

Baby spit up and toddler snot are the newest trends. :)

Lauren said...

Baby spit up accessorizes many of my outfits too. I love those flats!!!

Mommy Mo said...

You too? I have a constant accessory of little boy snot and little girl grimy hands somewhere on my clothes at any given time. The other I caught my daughter wiping her nose on her shirt while I was driving. I asked her "what are you doing". And she says, verbatim, "Mommy, I am wiping my nose on my shirt. You alredy said my shirt is dirty. And the Kleenex are in the back of the car". ANd right she was. When do they get to be so smart?

Big Mama said...

I love them both. Cute and casual!

And I'm impressed that you even get dressed with a 2 month old!

Thanks for playing!

I was lucky to be out of pajamas when my youngest was 8 weeks. Those outfits are adorable!

Kendra said...

Well I think the outfits are adorable!

Regarding your comment on baseball that you left on my blog:
I try and watch a few games here and there w/the hubs. Sometimes if a daytime game is airing I'll put it on and glance at the tv off and on....this way I can talk to him about the game when he comes home that night and he is usually impressed! **Wink-Wink**
I also read the reds website to keep up on things that is going on with the team. Then I'll bring up things that I read about and get his input. I have also read some of the discussion forums for fans.

Do I sound a bit crazy to you??? B/C after writing it and then reading it ~ I am starting to think I might be! lol

Are you still a reds fan or have you turned to the cubs???

Have a fabulous week.

I wouldn't have even been able to THINK about jeans two months out. You are doing good to even consider them! I love both pair of shoes.

Love the outfit on the left. It could have come from my closet, complete with shoes!
