Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Real-Life Mom Outfit of the Day Roundup- October

Real-Life Mom Outfit of the Day Roundup- October

I can’t believe that another month has past and it’s time to do another real-mom outfit of the day roundup.  I honestly never know what to call these posts.  I use to call them “What I Wore” posts, then I would say monthly posts.  Lately, I have just been referring to them as real-life mom outfit-of-the-day roundups because that’s what they are.  They are the real everyday outfits that I wear.  I love putting together outfits, but when it comes to actually getting a chance to wear every outfit that I style for the blog it’s hard.  I just don’t have that many exciting places to wear them to.  That’s why I challenge myself every day to put on something that I feel good in.

When I take my outfit of the day selfies, I am usually in a rush.  I am on my way out the door with the kids and I don’t have time to clean up.  You might see a laundry basket full of unfolded clothes in the background, some kid toys on the floor, or a child running in the background.  That’s just real mom life for you.  It’s not always Instagram perfect and neither are all my outfits, but I still feel good in them and that’s what is important.

This month I have a couple favorite pieces I have been wearing on repeat.  I have been new Abercrombie jeans (HERE).  I had been eyeing them for a while and I finally bought them.  I had enough reward coupons to get the price into a price range I was comfortable with, so I decided to go for it.  I am so glad I did because I am already getting a lot of use out of them. I also had a couple Target finds (HERE and HERE).  I also had a great thrift find this month.  I have had my eye out for a pleated leopard skirt and I finally found one at Goodwill for $3.99!!
