Soccer Mom

Being a “soccer mom” is a lot of work, but it doesn’t mean you have to show it! You can look fashionable while juggling all aspects of your life. The last thing you want is to look like Lynette Scavo from Desperate Housewives!

Here at Planet Style Concierge, I’ve put together some great tips on how to be a stylish mom-on-the-go.

1. Always look good when you leave the house.
It takes as much time to throw on a nice pair of jeans and a great sweater as it does to put on a jump suit. You never know whom you might run into and looking fabulous will make you feel better about yourself.


2. Take a few moments each morning to put on some makeup.
Two extra minutes spent doing this will make a world of difference! You don’t have to apply a full face as if you are going to a party or a special event. Remember, lipstick or lip-gloss and mascara go a long way!


3. Get yourself a great tote bag.
A tote will help you carry things around and keep you organized. Purchase one in leather or in a nice fabric. Also, choose a tote that is neutral in color. I’ve listed some examples below:

Right: A burgundy antiqued linen stripe bag available at Etsy.com.

4. Remember who you are.
Take a few moments each day to remember that you are more then just a soccer mom! Life isn’t always easy and children are sometimes difficult, but remember life is meant to be enjoyed so go out there and look and feel fabulous!
