The Playsuit: My Favourite Mom Mode Attire

November 30, 2017 By Kari 2 Comments

playsuit-1My wardrobe has totally evolved since I became a mom. Those leather-look pencil skirts and sky high-heels only come out to play once in a while now. It’s funny: even though I’ve lost most of the weight from my pregnancy, my old stuff still doesn’t fit because my body is totally different. Things have shifted all over the place! Know what I mean, mamas? Needless to say, it’s been a journey to create those looks that I can still parent in, but that are stylish (…and don’t look like I’ve thrown in the proverbial fashion towel!).

One piece I love, love, love to have in my wardrobe right now is a playsuit (minds out of the gutter, please). Otherwise know as a jumpsuit, or as I like to call it, “an adult onesie,” this piece is a must-have in any mom’s collection. I love playsuits so much because #1: they’re so comfortable, #2: they’re easy to build forts in, #3: they pair with a bomber jacket and a pair of great kicks-perfect for playdates or shopping with your kiddo, #4: you can add heels and some statement jewelry, dust off the clutch, and you’re all set for date night or drinks with friends. Honestly, as long as I wipe off the mashed avocado from earlier in the day, I could wear this piece from morning until night.

This playsuit from Paper Label is by far my favourite because it has deep pockets and is under $80 (about half the price of most playsuits).

What do you do when other kids are mean to your ki What do you do when other kids are mean to your kid? How do you handle it? No matter what season you're in with parenting or how old your kids are, I would love to hear your tactics! Please share below in the comments and we can all learn from each other👇👇. #pinkshirtday

Even when Wyatt was littler and would sometimes get rejected at the park when he asked to play, it would shatter my heart. 😫

I was bullied in high school pretty bad. My aunt stepped in one time and regulated some mean girls. Shared the (now) hilarious story on my Stories.❤❤

Wyatt's cute tee is from @deuxpardeuxkids, I'm wearing my @smashtess sweetheart roper and that heart print out is @justinema's free printable Kindness Challenge! (Looks like I have some catching up to do)! 🤣
See that cute little face photo bombing in the bac See that cute little face photo bombing in the back? 😊 He helps with my mental health on a daily basis. I know what each person needs varies, but for me, getting alone time to walk the dogs has been key in managing my anxiety and stress (especially this past year).

I believe investing in mental health initiatives is more important than ever. I’m so happy to be partnering with @atbfinancial for a really meaningful campaign called #ATBUp.

Each weekday from March 1-12, one more simple, FUN social challenge will be presented. When you complete and share on social using #ATBUp, @atbfinancial will donate $1 to @mentalhealthab!

I’ll be heading up two challenges—and including Moses 🐶 and Monroe 🐶. I hope you’ll join me! 😊💛

Visit up.atb.com to enter to win prizes, and get more info about the challenges and Alberta’s Mental Health Foundation.
I love you, my Valentine.❤ I love traveling with I love you, my Valentine.❤ I love traveling with you. I miss traveling. The end. Happy Valentine's Day!
