When you become a mom, you may get overwhelmed by your baby's needs to the point you feel that you have lost your sense of fashion. However, it is possible to be a stylish mom without compromising the ability to be a fun mom. Many women face many motherhood pressures and responsibilities where they have to feel like an involved parent and still succeed in their careers. Besides the lack of time and the body changes you may undergo when you become a mother, here are a few ways to stay fashionable.

Go For Jeans When in Doubt

Motherhood is fulfilling but can also be overwhelming and a full-time job to keep you busy throughout the day. If you have a busy schedule, you may feel tempted to wear some sweats or basketball shorts and go on with your business. Although you can do this every once in a while, it's good to go for jeans when in doubt. Even when you feel low, jeans help an outfit look more intentional and help you feel fashionable as a mother. If you are going out for a picnic or the mall with the baby, look more fashionable by carrying a diaper bag backpack that is stylish where you store and pack everything you will need for the baby. With jeans and a perfect diaper bag, you will be looking amazing.

Wear Flattering Clothes

Our bodies are different, and your body will be different from what you go through and the changes that come after being a mother. That's why it is crucial to find flattering clothes styles that accentuate your best features. For instance, if you have a pear shaped body type, you could wear V-necks, bell sleeves, and bootcut because they will fit you more and be flattery. On the other hand, for an apple shape, go for flowy tops and skinny jeans as these styles will flatter you. As you look for flattering clothes, they must also fit you properly. Wearing clothes that don't fit you will impact your first impression.

Accessorize

Accessorizing is one of the biggest keys to style. Even in a plain t-shirt and some casual jeans, you can throw in the right necklace, earrings, and jacket. It's not a must for you to buy a whole collection of jewelry, but you can keep a few nice pieces such as necklaces, belts, jackets to help you dress up your outfit. A plain outfit with the right accessories will keep you looking fashionable.

Put On Some Simple Makeup

You may not get the time to spend a lot of time in front of your mirror applying makeup. The whole process can be overwhelming from using a concealer, foundation, contouring, and highlighting. Unfortunately, you may not have this luxury with babies to chase. However, you shouldn't drop your whole makeup routine altogether but simplify it a bit to make you look and feel stylish without putting in too much effort. You can use the basics like a lip balm, tinted moisturizer, or some nude lipstick to look and feel awesome. You will also be able to finish your makeup routine fast without wasting too much time.

Accept Yourself and Your New Life

As a new mom, your responsibilities become too much, and sometimes the pressure may make you purchase things that you don't need including clothes and jewelry. If you have some items at home that you feel won't help you in any way, you can donate them or give them away and make room for other sensible and stylish things. Remember that you can still be comfortable and look stylish. You probably don't need the flannel pajama pants or the nursing tanks.

Conclusion

Being fashionable may be the last thing you want to think about if you are a new mom. Sometimes you may feel too overwhelmed and just want to wear some sweats, and run your errands without worrying about anything. However, you can still be fashionable even as a mom and always look and feel great. The trick is to wear the right outfit, accessorize, put on some simple makeup and accept that you are now a new mum.no matter where you are going, you can always try to put on a great outfit.
