Background.
I live in a place where the average first time mum was much older than me.
My age ( mid 20s ) still very much the party, care free life.
Square eyebrows,fake tans and countering a very popular trend amongst my age group currently.
None of my friends have children yet.
I am married with 2 children, 1 is starting year 7 and one starting reception.
Youngest attends dance classes and I haven't really fitted in with the group of parents ( all a lot older than me and not that it means anything to me but in a different "class"
The same goes for my eldest school I just can't seem to fit in.
Anyway I am usually very casual, long tshirts and leggings with vans or some sort.
Anyway today me and a friend when on a girlie shopping trip.
I picked some I say some lovely dresses ( maybe on the shortish side ) but then bought some nice maybe slightly older looking dresses, tops etc to wear days that I'm just doing school runs and club runs.
My friend instantly pointed out they were mumsy and not suited to me ?
But no way would my son appreciate me wearing skimpy shorts / dresses to football runs or school gate no matter the weather.
I all of a sudden looking at my wardrobe like I really don't fit in to anywhere which seems ridiculous and this probably seems literally the most trivial thing in the world.
But I all off a sudden feel like I'm rhe this in between stage 😂
Is it bad to be mumsy ?
What even is mumsy ?
