7 "Mom Fashion Mistakes" I Make Every Day — and Why I Don't Care

I tend not to pay too much attention to articles about fashion DOs and DON'Ts. However, a recent Babble post called 25 Fashion Mistakes Moms Make caught my attention. I was intrigued, because I figured I had to be making at least half of those mistakes on any given Monday. So I checked it out. (Turns out I make more like 17 fashion mistakes on the daily.) Basically, the gist of the post is that new moms need to cover up all that baby weight. I turn 40 next week. This is not middle school. I'm pretty sure my friends aren't giving me the side-eye, thinking, "wow, she'd be so much cooler if she wore jeans that were more slimming" or "ugh, how can she show that arm flab?" For this post, I thought I'd share some of my own personal failings to make everyone else feel better about their "mistakes." I didn't even have to look very far: these are all just photos I had handy. Pretty much every photo of me in existence shows me making at least three "mom fashion mistakes." So enjoy my fails! I suspect I'm in good company.
