J Brand jeans – wardrobe essentials

As the end of summer approaches and a new month on the horizon where school runs will once again occupy my week days I need to have a wardrobe suitable for hectic mornings and mad dashes to get the school run done on time. With 2 demanding kids to get fed, washed and clothed in the morning ready to head out to school to get there on time my own needs and 'look' often gets neglected.

Gone are the days that I bother to get glammed up before setting foot outside of the house. My hair is commonly styled in a messy bun or quick plait – living up to stereotypical messy mum hair – and I don't have the time or inclination to be fussed with doing my make-up.

Whilst I go for a low maintenance look nowadays I still try to make an effort with my outfit and like to look good for the school run and the rest of the day.....no school runs done in PJ's here. To help make getting ready in the morning quick, easy and hassle free I find having a few key wardrobe essentials that can be dressed up or down, and worn with a variety of clothes and accessories the way to go. Also getting my outfit ready the night before helps as I can simply grab and go in the morning rather than stress out on what looks good.

Trilogy Stores wish list.

Whilst I would love to say I am a stylish person always styled to perfection and could label myself with the term 'yummy mummy' the truth is far from it. As I have only recently come to love my body the way it is after years of hating it and PCOS symptoms it showcases I’ve never really put much effort into being stylish. I tended to wear clothes to cover up rather than wear clothes I love the look of. 

Along with a lack of confidence, family finances and a tight budget has also meant I rarely treat myself to new clothes and accessories. With my wardrobe being rather bare and far from the overflowing wardrobe filled with a beautiful collection of eclectic clothing of Carrie in Sex and the City which I’d watch with envy my wardrobe is filled with dull and basic essential clothing that I tend to wear to the death.

As I have come to love my body and myself for who I am and am more than a little fed up of wearing the same old frumpy and tired looking clothes I have recently made a vow with myself to expand my wardrobe and experiment with my style.
