Motherly Fashion Advice
Fashion Advice for Women over 45
The Chief Blonde and her Mom
I wouldn’t say I got all my fashion sense from my mom but there was a lot of great fashion tips she gave me that stuck with me through the years. Without further ado, here’s the Chief Blonde’s Mom’s Fashion Advice and I am pretty sure that your mom’s advice is similar!
Five Fashion tips from YOUR MOM
1. It never hurts to dress like your mom sometimes. (See picture above…this was a total accident…we showed up a restaurant in virtually the same outfit)
2. Wear a hat. Hats are very useful you see. They keep your ears warm and keep your skin from getting burned.
3. Take a jacket. You can always take a jacket off but if you are freezing and you didn’t bring one then you have a bigger problem.
4. Wear Comfortable Shoes. HAHAHAHAHA. You KNOW I ignored this one. See picture below!

5. Wear Clean Clothes. This seems like pretty obvious fashion advice but I can’t tell you the number of times I have went and changed my clothes because I could hear my mother’s voice ringing in my ears.

My mom taught me so much, both spoken and unspoken! She taught me that I don’t have to follow the crowd, to always be myself, to be an original, not a copy.
that i will understand when i have kids of my own, i have kids of my own and i DO understand now! 🙂
My Mother always used “if it can go wrong, it well go wrong at the worst possible time” this always makes me have a backup plan.
Be yourself and reach for your goals, even if no one else believes in you.
My mom always told me your clothes don’t have to be expensive if you wear them with attitude!
Always wear clean underwear…and it is very good advice!
Don’t sell yourself short .. I always notice my flaws instead of my good qualities .. would love to win a Kohl’s gift card 🙂
Thanks so much.
Do your homework. This advice came in handy ahaha
Play the field and do not chase boys:)
Oh my!.. You are your mom look so gorgeous <3
Be you!
Never wear clothes that are too tight or low cut. Leave something to the imagination!

Don’t bitch about your husband to your family and still expect us to welcome him to Sunday dinner.
Always do your best. If a job is worth doing it is worth doing right.
She always told me I could be anything I wanted to be. Now I tell my son that 🙂
It’s funny because i sound like my mother more everyday with the things i say to my kids.
Always treat others with kindness..the rewards are bountiful!
When you do a job (applies to any project, cleaning, work, etc) do it right. Nobody likes a slacker.
She told me, “one day you will realize I know what I am talking about”. I have repeated that to my own daughters. They are at that point now.
my mom told me to stop putting so much pressure on myself to be perfect; i’m good enough already
