Casual and Chic - Clothes that a Stay-At-Home Mom Wears - an Outfit Post

Happy Wednesday girlies! How is everyone surviving the week?

The kiddo and I have been busy so far. Open gym, lunch date, play space and community coffee house were just a few of the activities we participated in so far. As swamped as our schedule was, nap time have been long and successful everyday -- so relaxing to have time to myself.

Stay-at-home moms are always on the go. We need clothes that are both casual and chic. Plus, a little slimming effect, like the striped shirt below, always looks nice.

Although stay-at-home moms don't always have time to dress up, we can still look cute, and feel good about ourselves.


This triped shirt cost only $3 -- how's that for being frugal?


Boots over skinnies makes anything chic.


Are you a stay-at-home mom?



What do you consider casual and chic clothes?

  17. I'm not a stay at home mom yet...but I hope I will one day soon :) I love your outfit and it's definitely casual chic, so fun that you're wearing heels too :) I think my casual chic would be skinny jeans like you and a simple top and flat boots or maybe a pair of glittery flats. :)

    Thanks for your sweet comment

  34. this is nice and casual chic outfit for sure. It's a running-errands friendly outfit. I also like to wear jeans with a simple top. Nothing too fussy because I'm always on the go. So as a stay home mom like you, I give your outfit a thumbs up. The top is a great buy too!
