Mum On The Run Outfit Ideas

To be totally frank, I’ve avoided doing anything “mum-related” (style-wise) for a while, because I wasn’t sure how to approach it anymore. After seeing so many recent headlines shouting at new mums to look “hot again”, I didn’t want to add to the noise — especially when it’s a message I wholeheartedly disagree with. My vibe has always been “you do you”, and I genuinely believe the last thing new mums need is influencers with endless budgets and help telling them what to buy and wear at such a vulnerable, chaotic time.

However, I did start this site with mums at the forefront of my mind, and I’m often stopped at the school gate for advice on everyday outfits that actually work for all kinds of women. So here I am, hopefully with a solution for us all.

The looks I’ve put together — and the pieces I’ve chosen — are simple, but with a twist: an unexpected shoe colour, a standout accessory, an oversized bag…

I don’t need to make a huge effort or draw attention when I’m doing the most mundane of activities (hello, groceries), but I always want to feel polished and like myself. These pieces make me feel that way, and I hope they do the same for you.
