[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 31, 5'8" and a size 4. Athleta for work out clothes, like you're seriously working out, is fine. Athleta for casual wear looks frumpy to me and is really just a step up from wearing yoga pants and a tshirt. It seems to be moms that want to wear something that they can run after their kids in and be supported, but they think because it's a dress or because its colorful, that they look like they've tried. It's definitely not sexy - pp with those three dresses, I hate to break it to you. Everything is full coverage, thick stretchy looking material, holding you in, cross in the back stuff that looks athletic rather than stylish. The colors and patterns are dowdy and say late 30s to 40s mom to me. Want to be comfortable and stylish and still able to run after your kids? The slim moms in well-fitting skinny or straight jeans, ballet flats or ankle boots, a tshirt and a scarf or fitted moto jacket have the same effect and for much cheaper than a bright patterned stretchy dress with a built-in bra. [/quote] Skinny jeans are tacky. Ballet flats make everyone's legs look fatter. Ankle boots are dowdy. [/quote] So what do you recommend, Coco? Please enlighten us.
