“You can have anything you want in life if you dress for it.”
-Edith Head
My clients not only believe in that quote, they live it! In an attempt to really hammer home the point to my dear readers that Moms need to take care of themselves on the outside to feel like them on the inside, this week I’m gathering my four most popular “Mom-centric” blogs into one place for your reference.
We have the blog that started it all, the week Max was born. I followed that one up 5 months later with a blog telling my readers what to buy when they were still in between sizes, and then one on what to do with all of the clothes that didn’t fit. A year post-baby, I gave you my 7 Lessons Learned in My First Year as a Mom.
In other news, I was thrilled to learn this week that Washingtonian Magazine is adding a Mom-focused magazine to its arsenal, edited by none other than Kate Bennett, the most fashionable mom/fashion editor in DC. A lot of people in DC, men and women, seem to need a reminder every once in a while that not only is it OK to look good, but it’s OK to look REALLY GOOD. It’s even OK to look REALLY GOOD on an everyday basis, not just special occasions!
For your entertainment I’ll finish this up with a true fashion stylist confession, and then a really cute picture of Max to distract you from my confession. Are you ready? “I too drop my child off at daycare in the morning in my pajamas.” But! I add a really cute coat on top like a brightly colored trench or my studded green Army jacket to pick things up a level. Now that it is summer and a cute coat doesn’t work when it is 95 degrees, I’ll just have to make my husband drop him off so I don’t have to get dressed that early.
