@Mae: I wear a ton of stuff from this thread, and I'm not even a mom yet!
-
@MrsBrewer: I own 3 pairs of capris lol. Life is hard when you hate your legs! My thighs are awful so shorts are off the table and skirts are only okay if I don't have to walk around much (chub rub). So my options are long pants or capris in the summer and sometimes its just too damn hot for long pants. ah well.
-
@Mae: I also hate my legs and only wear shorts in the extreme heat, so I do go with the capri option usually. However, I think capris are okay, provided they're more fitted. I have a J. Crew pair I bought like, 3 years ago and I think they're pretty respectable. I mean, non-moms have even complimented them

@Anagram: all three of those are my mom exactly! so funny.
-
@Mae: yep, I own capris too because my legs are horrible! I don't even own shorts!! I wear those tops that are in the pictures on the other page. Oh well though truthfully, I'm comfortable!

@meredithNYC: I know we said no to the tennis skort earlier in this thread, but check out Athleta, on the Gap site, for other options. I have both the Whenever and Whatever skorts and you would have no idea that they've got little bike shorts underneath. They are all I live in come summer, I also don't do shorts, unless they're bermudas.
I also think there's a difference between cropped pants and capris...capris tend to just stop mid calf, with a flare, and cropped pants tend to taper into the ankle, which is a whole different and more modern look.

bahaha i love my lululemon running skirt. But i don't wear it to the park. I can see why people do, though. I love workout gear with the underwear panels built in...i wear them all the time in the summer.

I don't even own yoga pants lol... do I need to get some now that I am a mom? Am I behind times? I basically only wear jeans, I do have some jean capris be cause I hate my legs but at least they are fitted right? I don't think I've owned a skort since before I hit the double digits of age, I had no idea they were making a comeback!
-
@looch: you're totally right re: crop v capris. It is the cropped look that I'm into. The skirt is an idea, too. Summer is rough for ladies with less than perfect legs !

I think boot cut/flared jeans are the new mom jeans. they were popular 10 years ago, but not so much anymore.
