Being a mom doesn’t mean that you must live in t-shirts and sweatpants during your time away from the office. Being a mom in itself is a full-time job. Many new moms who have gone from only being responsible for themselves to parenthood just assume that they must throw away their fashion sense and focus it on coordinating outfits for baby. While comfort is key, there are comfortable fashion trends that the everyday woman can add to their wardrobe to stay stylish and comfortable. Here are some comfortable trends that will keep you looking and feeling great as a mommy.
A Trendy Turtleneck with a Fitted Jean
When you were younger, you may have thought you wouldn’t be caught dead in a turtleneck. What you might not have considered is that turtlenecks would become a new trend that could make you a fashionable and comfortable mom. There’s nothing more uncomfortable than wearing a low-cut shirt that your child pulls on as they are being carried. If you choose a fashionable fitted turtleneck and pair it with a scarf and skinny jeans or even trendy jogger pants, you can feel comfortable and look great this fall and winter.
The Long Skirt and Short Jacket Look
Wearing a mini skirt is more than likely out of the question out of the question when you go to the park or grocery shopping with the little ones, but you can still wear a more modest skirt and look great. Try a bold skirt that goes down to your ankles and pair it with a simple blouse and short jean jacket and you will look on-trend without feeling uncomfortable.
Slimming Pants with a Long Fitted Sweater
You might not like wearing uncomfortable pants to the office that really have no give and offer you no flexibility, but there are other options that look professional and feel great. Many moms struggle with the abdomen area and desire something that slims the midsection. Why not try out a pair of slimming modern fit pants made of a soft and stretchy fabric that will move with you? Rayon, nylon and spandex pants from shops like Christopher and Banks are 10 notches above leggings and can be paired perfectly with a blazer or even a long fitted sweater.
Style for a Rainy Day
Who says the rain has to rain on your parade? You can still be a stylish mommy and be prepped for a day out in the rain with the right classic raincoat perfect for mom paired with trendy rain boots. If you have an hourglass figure, it is best that you go with a versatile rain coat that ties at the waist and falls right below the hip. These are slimming and comfortable and will look great with fitted jean and rain boot that comes up to just under the knee.
Do not forget to accessorize your outfits to make them look complete. In cooler months, the universally flattering baggy beanie can keep your head warm and even hide the messy hair. In warmer months, you can find the perfect necklace that doubles as a teething accessory. Be flexible, but don’t give up on fashion just because you are a mom.
