More Fashion Forward moms....

I'm having a really hard time between dressing my age and dressing like a mom. I'm in my early twenties so its not like I'm old. So I don't exactly want to dress like I'm 50, but I hate that I look like a 12 year old when I'm out with the kids. So this leaves me in a weird vex for fashion help.

 Do I say to hell with being young and go shop at Loft or Chicos? or dress my age and watch the little old bitties at the store glare at me, bonus points if I forget my wedding ring and they are all, "zomg unwed teenage mother! lets cane her"  Or do I try to find a happy medium of fun fashion and appropriate dress. I never thought I would find myself looking at V-necks thinking "my goodness this is way to low cut, but its good for breast feeding" Nor did I ever think I would be so annoyed with low cut pants, but oh.my.god. if I have to hike my pants back up over my ass one more time I might just burn them and live in yoga pants.

I've traded in a lot of my "college girl" fashion of mini skirts and thongs and low cut spaghetti straps, but with weight fluctuations over the last 3 years and size difference and body morphing into weird shapes. Even clothes I bought a year ago are baggy, or to tight. Any time I put on jeans that are to tight a little piece of my soul just kind of goes "meh" when I see the mama-muffin. I try not to be to hard on my body, its done its job wonderfully. It brought to amazing boys into this world. Yeah its a little worse for wear. But it gave me the two most amazing children I could ask for. For that, I am grateful.

So, what is cute, fun, practical, and fashionable? What ARE moms wearing to the play ground these days?

I am trading in my low cut jeans for something higher waisted, nothing says "classy" like half your buttocks hanging out of your jeans when you bend down and scoop your kiddo up. I purchased a few cute t-shirts and a nice top to wear for easter. Funky pink flats will help give me a pop of color and I'm going to  try to start accessorizing more. Hopefully this is a start in the right direction.
