Don’t Forget About Mom
I love doing all these art projects with my daughter, I love spending time with her, I love taking her to the park and I love hosting and going to play-dates but at the end of the day I have to remember I’m still wifey too! It’s so easy to get caught up in being a stay-at-home mom, taking care of my daughter, keeping up the house, cooking meals that it’s easy to forget about myself and looking good for my husband.
Do you ever do that? Get so busy that you forget about yourself?
Recently I realized the messy bun and yoga pants were becoming all too common. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with these but I noticed when I wore them too often I stared feeling BLEH about myself. I realized I felt better about myself when I took some time to look nice here and there and my husband appreciates it too.
So… for both my husband’s sake and my own, I decided it was time to care a little bit more about me, including treating myself to something new here and there (I hadn’t done that in forever! Thinking back over the past year it seems like all I’ve bough is groceries and stuff for the kids!)
My first purchase — these adorable boots from Famous Footwear that have been on my wish list for forever I can now call mine! 🙂
I love that every time I look down I see cute, happy shoes on my feet and it makes my whole day a little better somehow.
Plus, shoes are also a practical purchase if you’re a budget savvy moms like me. I’ve been wearing mine almost every day, they are perfect for everything — I’ve worn mine to the pumpkin patch with my daughter, to a family birthday party at the corn maze, while running errands, and even on a date with my man.
If it’s been too long since you thought about yourself — consider treating yourself to something fun, like a new pair of shoes, so you can kick your feet up in style!
You can check out the #ohsofamous style gallery to see what others are wearing and get inspiration and ideas before making your purchase. You can even share your own #ohsofamous moment after your shoes arrive!
Also, can I just say Famous Footwear’s customer service rocks! Good service is so rare these days I thought a shout out was deserved! Twice, now, our in-store shopping experience with Famous Footwear has been AMAZING!
