To think mums shouldn't do drop at nursery in their pyjamas?

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

I know they may have been up all night with a newborn, depressed, etc etc.

But really, I do wonder when I see a flashy subaru 4x4, child immaculately dressed and the mother has an expensive coat on, over pj's. How long does it take to put a pair of jeans on ffs?

I shit you not, I once saw one of the offenders in pj's and heels.

Or is this some high fashion thing I just don't get?

but pjs dont actually lok mjuch different from clothes do they

seriously feature??

what is the difference ?
Tehy micht sleep in those joggers, how do you know?
but just because they dont look like sleepwear, thats ok?

They do if they are pink with love hearts and sleeping beauty on the front ? NO?

I don't have these btw.

and they are thinner....

unless they are fleecy of course..

No, sorry it just looks wrong.

Noway can you not have 2 mins to pop into something a little bit smarter....

I must admit I sleep in jogging bottoms and not Pj's Joggers and vest tops so much better

I dont know why people think its un hygenic as the chances are most Pj's have been thrown on

2beornototbe

I got the tip from anthes turner (dont like the rest of the crap she spouted in that program but loved that tip)

I try to just do it in the house but I have actually had dd2 have a little accident in tesco and I was abloe to just reach up, free hair and voila

CLothes are for covering our bodies for modesty and against the elements.

What the hell does it matter what kind of clothes they are or whether they are conventionally seen as nightwear or daywear?

It doesn't bloody matter, ffs.

Irrelevant. Pointless. Won't make a difference next year, in ten years or in a hundred years what someone wore to drop their kid off at school

Blu - for some parents, school drop-offs (and especially) pick-ups are a daily opportunity to parade their ever-increasing wealth and power...

So you come up to school just out of the hairdresser and with several designer bags on your arm where you have a pre-pick-up rendez-vous with all your pre-school age children decked out in new clothes (outfitter of choice: Bonpoint) and their nanny(ies) (for which there is a complex pecking order of nationalities). You will have course have double-parked your 4x4 (pref blocking entrance to private road in which school is located) if you are unfortunate enough not to have a chauffeur (even better: bodyguards).

Grrrrrr. But this really is only a small minority of French parents. Most parents are not French and therefore have nothing to prove (we're foreign and therefore by definition more exotic)

smarter? that is a whole new complaint

anyway how come they bother getting out of the 4x4

that is surely unnecessary

here's a previous thread

Another thing that really surprises me about this habit (apart of course from the fact that people do the school run in their pyjamas) is the sheer inefficiency of it all. I mean you get half-dressed, do the school run, then you get home and get washed and dressed properly.

No it does not matter tbh.

I just find it a wee bit strange. But that is just me.....I won't even go into garden with mine on. Or hang my undies out.

weirdo

you go back home and get into bed

maybe I do have 2 mins but I dont have anything smarter AND clean when I do this

Also why should I think that to drive for 5 mins, kiss dd1 bye and then drive 5 mins home I have to look smart

I'm not actually conversing with anyonI never thought I may be pffending, I thought people may think I'm odd but the knickers accidenlt left in hair, large leopard print hair and general demeanor mean they think I'm odd anyway....

LOL its an excellent tip lol I will start doing it myself me thinks.

what does it matter? = pink, love hearts and sleeping princess ones look weirdy.

IMO

Feature, well yes, but that is just a matter of taste!

Grown women shouldn't own pjs with cartoon characters on them in the first place

There's also a bunch of mothers who do morning drop-offs in their running gear... all perfectly coiffed of course.

My 21 yro old blonde gorgeous sister picked me up from tesco the other day wearing pjs, uggs and an oversized grey jumper with holes in it. She didn't get out of the car. So what?

actually they would be cool, not the princess though

I am actually on the look out for a velvet coat to wear over my jammies on the chool run

anyone passing one on?

Anna I seriously couldn't handle that. If I turn up at DS's school in my running gear I am suitable huffing and puffing, with a red face and sweat unattractively blotching my clothes.

Anna I drop off every FRiday in running gear. I know it winds loads of the other mums up!

what is this running gear you speak of?

I did this when I was staying with my relatives in Italy and another mother came up to me with a vial of Rescue Remedy lol

I now drop DD in PJ's (always with a long belted cardi or coat over and nice shoes) all the time. Sorry if it offends however I am really busy have a backbone, confidence and also a fab body so anything looks good

It's not a "state" school thing whoever said that btw quite the reverse....
