There are some who feel that motherhood is the moment where you lose your ‘cool’, and that hanging on to some kind of prior youthful and passionate feeling is simply not acting your age. There are those who feel that even young mothers should feel this way. We should always ignore these impressions. Nothing could be further from the truth. And since when did having children make you uncool? Is there anything cooler than raising a family you love and taking the time to look after those who mean the most to you? We’d think not.
This means that if you’ve subscribed to that sense of having to ‘act your age,’ we would love to tell you that age is just a number, and how you feel in your soul is more important. There are twenty-year-olds with the mindset of a fifty-year-old, and fifty-year-olds still as energetic and youthful as they were in their mid to late twenties.
Perhaps the first way we can start to erode these boundaries is considering our self-image, and even improving it to the point where we feel most confident. In the following advice, we’ll show you how:
Try A New Piercing
Why not try a new piercing? Not only can this help you express yourself, but it can totally rework your style and what kind of image you put out there. There’s no reason for this to look overbearing, of course. The best cartilage earrings can be cute, inoffensive, and delicate. They can also be noticeable while still working with a professional outfit. A small addition like this can help you start to think of your entire style change from there, and can serve as a small confidence booster.
Get Fitted Once More
If you find that many of your clothes no longer fit you, either too large or small, then don’t feel ashamed. Having children or getting older can change our bodies in ways we might not have expected, but that doesn’t make us any less beautiful. Finding our fit and buying new clothes or taking some of our favorite current items to a seamstress can help us wear our best threads with confidence. Not only that, but they’ll be more comfortable. Soon you’ll be looking for events to wear your best outfits too. That sounds good to us.
Try A Range Of Seasonal Styles
Fashion is seasonal. While we’re currently in winter, soon it will be spring, and this gives you an amazing new opportunity to try a new style and enjoy doing so. There’s nothing wrong with trying to follow this kind of expression year around, because it not only gives you time to save up for a somewhat new bundle of clothes and accessories, but it can also help you plan for this ahead of time. To that extent, fashion can be a fun addition to your life, not some kind of chore that you have to keep up ‘or else’.
With this advice, we hope you can properly spice up your style as a mother.
