Momiform MAKEover: Day 6

September 27, 2015

Today we continue the makeover fun with five gorgeous stitchin' moms who have made over their daily uniforms. Without further ado... First, we have Kymy of Everything Your Mama Made & More. Kymy is a pattern designer who always impresses me with her knowledge and skill as a business woman. Plus, she's a great mom! She sewed up several different looks including this fabulous yoga outfit. These are both patterns from her own collection, but you'll have to click through to her blog to get the details! She also sewed up several other looks that you'll love.

Next, we have Kymy's assistant, Joelle, who also decided to get in on the fun! The colors in this comfortable knit top suit Joelle to a tee, don't you think?

Joelle says, "As a SAHM, I spend 75% of my time looking sloppy in stained, ill-fitting store-bought loungewear because I'm "saving" my handmade to "show off" when I leave the house. I decided it's about time I put a little more effort into looking nice even at home (and I'm sure my hubby agrees). ;-)"

Lookin' fab, Joelle! You can see the rest of her photos and details on Kymy's blog (links above).

 

Next up is Teri from Climbing the Willow. About her looks, she said, "Essentially it's a post about sticking with the basics until I figure out what my style even is any more. After seventeen years of being a stay-at-home mom who never really needed to have any style (unless maternity counts as a style) or pay attention to fashion trends (nothing looks good with spit-up) I feel like I'm starting from the beginning. And honestly, I'm not really even sure what I want my style to be :) Although I did get a new haircut which feels like a great beginning!"

Love that haircut, and I love all these mix-and-match looks.

Sarah Lynn...oh, Sarah Lynn. She always looks stunning, don't you think? And this mama has three little ones including a new-ish baby (4-months now!). She had a couple hiccups along the way during her sewing, but I'm totally impressed with this gorgeous dress. I LOVE the burnout she chose, and she looks quite comfortable yet lovely.

She said, "I will be reviewing my very favorite clothing item, the Everyday Maxi by See Kate Sew. As my body has changed from pregnant to postpartum, this dress has been my best friend in my wardrobe. Perfect for chasing my crazy kids while still looking like a lady." Hop over to Shaffer Sisters to get all the details.
