False eyelashes on the school run?

[HexagonalQueenOfTheSummer]

AIBU to think this is excessive? And when worn in conjunction with 4 inch heels, full fake tan, clothes suitable for a nightclub and hairpieces AIBU to think it's laughably over the top for the school run?

Said woman has told me she gets up at 5am every school day to get ready.

Bare minimum I'd say

Ah, perhaps I should rtft

or not

I'm into make up/hair/clothes and I wear a full face of neutrals (or a bold lip) on the school run. I've been known to wear false lashes too but it's a bit time consuming for me.

I might think it's a little OTT but if it makes her feel good she can do what she likes.

what i meant was is she is getting attitude/looks whatever of other mums, which isn't nice. she would kinda get the message that the other mums don't approve.

And where exactly have you gotten this information from? Do you know her? Are you part of the little group at the gates, sneering?

i make observations all the time. its mostly i wish had her figure i like your dress etc, does that make me a bitch i think not.

i would never say anything nasty out loud or on mn its not in my nature.

I guess we all do make judgements about other people's appearance sometimes, whether it's 'wow, she looks great', or 'I'd never have time to do that!' or 'hmm, that really doesn't suit you'. But there's a difference maybe between having those momentary, spontaneous thoughts in your head, and starting an MN thread poking fun at an individual woman for her dress style. Just seems a bit unpleasant really.

I know lots of threads on here are about problems with or criticisms of particular people...this just seems a bit bitchy and shallow because the woman has done nothing to harm or upset OP, all she's done is leave her house dressed as she chooses!

Bullying? By the OP? Agree that a bit ill judged to have posted about this person but hardly bullying and while of course anyone can wear what they want, it does sound a bit excessive. Everyone very defensive this morning.

no I'm not, im only going on what op said. you can't fake body language.

Isn't it nice that after centuries women are so nice to each other and so supportive and non judgmental.

I am a makeup and heels bird, always have been and have been subjected to spiteful comments, couldn't give a flying fuck of course.

Live and let live ladies please.

It does smack of bullying.

I'm wondering if some expert could tell me what is acceptable? Pj's and uggs? Boden and Cath kidson? Work wear? Please, do tell I'd love to know.

9 times out of ten I'm properly dressed and made up. I pick clothes the night before, get dressed as soon as I'm up. My full face takes less than ten minutes, closer to 5 really. My hair takes 5 minutes to straighten and, shock horror, someday's I'll wear a hair piece which takes the same time it takes for me to scrape my hair into a pony tail. I don't wear heel's as I have the stability of a newborn hippie.

Who do I do it for? Me. I feel ready to face the day.

I'm going out to buy some false eyelashes and spray tan. Maybe someone will notice me for a change.

S'not bullying for heaven's sake.

Newborn hippie?!?

Girrafe!!

DYAC

Bit of a lie judging by your responses on this thread really - maybe you should review how you come across. You've also made massive assumptions about the 'other' mums at this person's school gate. The OP hasn't mentioned the 'other' mums at this particular school gate.

It is bullying. No doubt about it. Starting a thread poking fun at an individual for their appearance is bullying. Especially as the OP has made the person quite recognisable to themselves if they're on here with various details.

None of us saw the woman so perhaps she really did look very overdone for 9am? If she's wearing skimpy clothes and a lot of make up she probably did look out of place.
I don't mean that to sound bitchy but sometimes people can look out of place and will get noticed.
I noticed a woman wearing tights, denim hot pants and a hijab on the school run. It just looked unusual and although no one pointed and laughed or were bitchy, people did notice.

God, haven't we got over nasty judging of each other yet? So she wears stuff YOU don't like. Who could possibly give a flying fuck about that?

You sound like you should be in school yourself.

There's a couple more threads slagging off women, report them too. There
would be no bloody threads left if we were all nice.

I don't come on here for niceness, I come on here to judge

We are all doomed.

I wish we had women with uber high heels and fake tans. It sounds dead exotic.

It seems ok to judge a mum in pyjamas and Uggs though

Is that bullying people in nightwear?

I used to see the woman with her badger out but she hasn't been around for ages. Perhaps her badger doesn't like the rain.

Women wearing nightwear with cute animals on should be bullied.

I did the school run in my jammies, but I wore my sunglasses so I still looked cool

Is that an euphemism Pag?

I will admit I would judge a mum on the run in pj's. There really is absolutely no need whatsoever not to chuck on a pair of jeans, leggings - anything!
