Casual Outfit of the Day - a Stay-at-Home Mom's Version of Sexy


Total cost: $86


About the Casual Outfit


Stay-at-home moms can look sexy too, right? We just do it subtly, like wearing something both casual and wild. Today, I put on a leopard-printed shirt with the ultimate symbols of comfort -- leggings and boots. Somehow, the outfit worked. 

Also, the top is made of velvet. It felt soft and smooth. It's a little oversized, which is why I layered it on top of a long tank.


About the Day


This was Friday, another surprisingly sunny day. We live in Seattle, by the way. It rarely gets sunny here.

The day was eventful and exhausting. After a long bus and train ride to the International District, the kids and I attended bilingual school, had lunch and bubble tea with friends, and searched frantically for a lost doll. Unfortunately, we did not find my daughter's beloved "Baby Sandy," which she left at the grocery store last week. But we did pick up a delicious maple bar to compensate.

Knowing that I worked hard all day, my sweet husband took over child care duties so I can go to the gym -- and I just love ending the day with a satisfying workout.


Sexy or not, I love wearing leopard.

 

How about you, friend?

  1. what a lovely outfit. I like animal print combined with casual!
    btw it's very nice of your hubs to let you have some time for yourself, as you should...kids are amazing, a source of joy, but they do take a lot of energy. I don't have my own yet, but I have taken care of lot of them so I know:)
