It really doesn't go in a particular order... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-898378 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 11:26:47 +0000 fussygal 898378@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I'm getting ready to leave the house I usually choose my outfit based off of which bottoms (pants, skirts, shorts) are available. I have less bottoms than tops so I can usually easily find a top to match. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-898146 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 10:29:46 +0000 MrsTiz 898146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do hair + makeup the same everyday, so I just pick a shirt and know i'm wearing jeans (90% of the time) and then go with whatever shoes match </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-898075 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 10:13:08 +0000 Carol A. 898075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I choose the main clothing item first (dress, top or bottom) and then work around it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894952 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 07:13:49 +0000 cmomma17 894952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@stiletto_mom: what's clean and what fits? I only have a few pairs of shoes, my hair and makeup is the same every day, and I don't accessorize. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894950 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 07:09:00 +0000 heffalump 894950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends what I'm doing that day. I prefer dresses, but if I'm going to the library or something that requires me to sit on the floor in public with lo, I wear pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894885 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 00:51:25 +0000 birdofafeather 894885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i usually get fixated on an item to wear and then find whatever goes with it. today it was my chambray shirt.

I almost never worry about perfecting hair and makeup. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894873 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 00:11:49 +0000 MamaJ 894873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always do hair and make up first. If those get done at all. Then I just flip through my closet and pick something and add shoes that match. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894858 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 00:01:16 +0000 Mrs Hedgehog 894858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really think about it much TBH. I look for what is comfortable and wont make me overheat or crush my stomach and go from there. I have never cared very much. Am I naked? Do I match the outside weather? Are my clothes messed up in any way? Am I comfortable? Once those are answered I am good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894762 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 22:39:05 +0000 deerylou 894762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually just brainstorm while I'm showering. It's summer, and I'm on maternity leave (no baby yet, though), so I'll usually just wear a dress or a top/skirt combo with open toed flats or sandals. I do my makeup and hair while I'm still in a towel, but when it's warm out, I wear minimal cosmetics, and just throw my hair up in a top bun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894750 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 22:31:24 +0000 Mrs. Twine 894750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Zippylef; I'm with you. I was going to say, "I go for no obvious stains or bad odors, covers key body parts admirably, and won't result in hypo- or hyperthermia." Maybe I'm not thinking about his enough? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894735 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 22:21:36 +0000 JessKas 894735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At this point (8 months pregnant) I just grab whatever fits. I've given up trying to look cute...in the 90+ degree heat. </p> <p>Before, I would usually start with a top or pair of pants and go from there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894209 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 16:49:26 +0000 Ash 894209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Clothes first. Hair and makeup is usually the same and shoes are usually flip flops.<br /> And I'm not a sahm, like the other gorgeous ladies that have an excuse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894206 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 16:46:01 +0000 mrs. bird 894206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for everyday:<br /> is it relatively clean (i re wear jeans all the time!)?<br /> has it been at least a couple days since i wore it as an outfit?<br /> will it be appropriate for the weather?<br /> would i be okay with it getting vomit/paint/food/nasal mucus on it?<br /> four yeses and it gets worn, bonus points if i can get dressed out of the dryer! :wink: </p> <p>i am the epitome of style and grace. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894187 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 16:34:22 +0000 loveisstrange 894187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whatever is clean and weather appropriate? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894178 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 16:28:12 +0000 Boheme 894178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pick an outfit that I won't have to iron. Shoes are whatever go with the outfit. Hair and makeup only happen if I'm lucky. And motivated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-894144 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 16:16:29 +0000 HLK208 894144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do my hair and make-up first, then pick a top, and jeans (life of a SAHM...nothing too dressy :( ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-893722 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:22:32 +0000 Lindsay05 893722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Clothing.

Usually I pick my pants first (which pants have I worn the least recently) and then I'll pick my top (which top haven't I worn already this week). And then I do the same makeup and jewelry every day. I'm so cool. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-893692 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:15:20 +0000 looch 893692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually start with the bottoms and go from there.</p> <p>I have been so rushed in the mornings, though, that I am planning out 5 days of outfits down to the undergarments and shoes on the weekend. Just Grab and Go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-893691 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:15:14 +0000 regberadaisy 893691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Um. That sounds way too complicated. I just pick out whatever I feel like according to the weather. If I'm feeling lazy which 95% of the time I wear flats. </p> <p>Hair &amp; Makeup...other moms have time for this? I prefer my extra sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-893690 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:14:58 +0000 Mrs. Pen 893690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Clothing. I usually pick a specific top, bottom or dress to start. Then choose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-893685 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:14:05 +0000 LuLu Mom 893685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do my hair and makeup first, and then get dressed otherwise I feel ugly and nothing looks good. I do try to have an idea before though of ideas of what I want to wear! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-893669 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:11:56 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 893669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always do my hair and makeup first while I'm naked.</p> <p>Then I find whatever is cute but comfortable. If I am feeling lazy that day, I will wear whatever goes best with flats or sandals.</p> <p>If I am feeling in the mood to dress up, then I pick out my outfit to match the level of makeup I have on and then find whatever shoes go with my clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decide-what-to-wear#post-893646 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 13:08:13 +0000 stiletto_mom 893646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aside from the occasion and the weather, do you plan from bottom up, top down, accessories first, or hair and make up first?</p> <p>Personally I plan from the feet up (LOL). I usually decide what footwear I want to wear that day and then choose a bag I like and then decide on a colour palette. Hair and MU for me are last.</p> <p>What about you? </p>
