[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SAHM. I have nude nails, cut & color every 3-4 months, gel pedicures that last 3 weeks.

I basically live in lululemon. It's comfortable. I wear lulu tights with a pullover or zip up jacket or a long puffy jacket and nicer sneakers. This is what I wear during the day and I'm ok with it. I can wash it a million times and I don't worry about the kids ruining it or having to dry clean it.

My hair is either pulled into a pony with a plain hat or I do loose waves.
Makeup routine is BB cream, mascara, lip gloss, blush, eyebrow shadow. Super natural look.

I go out and do social things in the evenings often so I'll save an actual outfit and accessories for then.

This. +1 The first few posters had rules about no leggings, no workout clothes, but if you’re a SAHM long term, “normal” is going to be defined differently. You are most likely not going to need to wear heels everyday. I would focus on hair, nail, skin maintenance. Working out. And finding comfortable clothing that is presentable - I wouldn’t rule out leggings![/quote]

You can wear pants and shoes that are comfortable but are not workout clothes/leggings.  Leggings automatically say frump- even if they are lulumon. Since when did the only acceptable clothes for SAHM to be "comfortable" equal spandex and leggings [/quote]

There was actually an article recently.. NY Times maybe... that women dressed in high-end athleisure clothes were perceived as more polished and wealthier than someone in normal clothes... Do you actually SAH? This is basically the uniform for SAHM (in a wealthy area where fashion is prioritized). If you're out there with young children doing activities, going grocery shopping, sitting on the floor at play gyms or music class, dragging your kid out of the sandbox at the playground and preschool drop offs, this makes the most sense. Some of you judging are in the minority here. No one else would look at a SAHM at 10am at Target dressed in nice leggings and a fitted pullover and think "frump"... [/quote]
