Fashion trends of the SAHM - Laugh a little, and then buy a maxi skirt!

Ok.. so we have all heard of the mom jeans.  You know the ones!  They are super high waist'ed and make your butt look really, really, really long!  OH.. yeah... elastic top is even better!

But.... hey with that new "baby bump" that Jennifer Gardner is bring back we can't really sport the low cut either for fear of the muffin top.  Nobody want's to see that.

So.. we get creative right ladies.  As a mom I no longer have the time, or will power to iron my own clothes.  And since sweats have that "I didn't' even try" appeal to them we start looking around.  What are all the other mom's wearing?  Answer!  Yoga pants and Maxi skirts!

At this point I would like to refer you to this web-site of 

HOW NOT TO WEAT YOGA PANTS...

I'll wait while you laugh, go put on your own pants, check your butt out in the mirror, take a picture send it to your friend, ask them if it looks okay, then you come on back when you think you can....  I'll wait!  It's okay.. go look.

Now we move on to the more safe side of SAHM clothing choices..... Maxi Skirts.  I'll be honest.. this is a fashion trend that's been around a year or so..but I am totally jumping in.  Why you ask? 

1) Because in the summer I can hid my unshaven legs for a quick run to the store.

2) Because it's summer and I'm having a fat day.

3) Because it's winter and I'm having a fat day.

4) Because it matches all my shirts. At least my black, grey, and white ones do.

5) Because it's winter and I can put legging on under it and be very warm, and cute!

6) Because it doesn't need ironing, ever....

7) Because I can wear it with flip flops  

8) Because I don't have to worry about my muffin top, my whale tail, my long butt, or my boy shorts line, it's the perfect SAHM outfit ever!

9) Because I slept in it last night (yes.. I use them as night gowns sometimes) and didn't have time to change before I dropped of the kids at school.

Now, may we all bow our heads and say a little prayer they always stay in fashion, that this not quite 70's free spirit look, but not quite bohemian look, not as bad as the Amish (no offense intended), not too old, not too young looks stays around for a while!  Amen
