Do you "get ready" every day?
I change as soon as I'm done nursing/pumping I usually shower at night but sometimes in the AM, like today. DS1 has preschool MWF so those days I usually put my face on too.

Nope! Only if I am the one doing daycare drop off, which is about 1x a week. I usually run at lunch, then shower and get dressed after that.

Nope! I stay comfy. I'll change to drop DS off at daycare, but even that's comfy wear or I'll just throw a dress on then change back into comfy clothes at home.

I actually get ready more now that I am basically a SAHM (I still work but it's few enough hours to get done during naps) than when I was WAHM and LO went to daycare/Grandma-care. I was supposedly part time, but my less than stellar time management just meant I was partly working all of the time, so I would just roll out of bed and start working. I took LO to daycare in "yoga pants" (pajamas)!
Now, I make more of an effort because we go to a playdate or activity of some sort pretty much every day and I don't want the other moms to think I am a slob!

I typically work out during lunch and then I'll shower after that, but I mostly always look like a slob on the days I WAH.

I usually work in the office, but I always have the option to work from home as needed. On those days, I usually just put on some activewear and put on some mascara and coverup, just in case I need to get out of the house at lunch.

Heck no! I consider tees & lounge pants a WAH job perk. Depending if I need help waking up I'll shower in the morning or right at 5 pm.

I make myself presentable-ish - like fitted T-shirt and jeans/yoga pants and a little make-up, hair back in ponytail. Sometimes I get video called by work so I don't want to look like a complete mess.

i telework once a week. i usually do makeup because it makes me feel more put together, but i wear casual clothes (not pj's, but not business casual either).

Every day! I WAH, but still have to drop off the kids at school and do errands or go to appointments. People dress a lot more formally around here though, so I would feel awkward showing up in sweats at daycare drop off or the grocery store.

@Ms.Badger: ditto! I certainly don't go all out but I put on clothes and brush my hair so that I can video chat.

No, I wish I did but I don't. I WFH about 1-2 days a week and sometimes if I'm really busy I'll start working as soon as I wake up and find myself still in my pajamas at 11 a.m. On mornings I also have to drop my son off I do put on yoga pants and t-shirts or something but no make-up. I love doing my make-up but we're so rushed in the morning I skip it if I don't need it.

I usually put on gym clothes since I workout at some point most days. If I don't go workout until much later and still have to take my son to preschool, I throw on jeans and whatever. I usually skip makeup.

on days that I work at home, I still usually get dressed/put on make up because I still do daycare drop-off. a lot of those days I go to the gym after drop off though, so I'm wearing gym clothes and minimal make up. And then I shower after the gym/before I start working. I definitely dress for the day I'm having! Like, today I taught so I'm wearing a dress; tomorrow I will interact with students but not teach so I'll wear jeans and a blouse; Monday I wasn't on campus at all so I wore jeans and a tshirt

Most days I don't get a shower til after noon. Then I put on yoga pants unless I'm going somewhere in the afternoon. I do find that I feel better post shower, though. I feel like I should shower during LO's first nap, but at 6 months were still finding our routine.

I usually work out at some point (lunch or afternoon) so I wear gym clothes until then and then shower if I have time.
