I would definitely put you in that category if I had to make a choice. You always look so glamorous and make it look so effortless. Tell me how you do it, willing to take any tips. Another friend of mine who commented on fb rather than here said she thought people were 50:50 i.e. not one category or the other. I certainly feel I have my glam moments but there's nothing regular about them.

I never leave the house without make-up on (but wish I had the confidence not to). I do wear nice things but only because I love clothes! I do avoid getting my hair wet in the pool (but I do take them swimming). I do take the children to lots of classes, but only because we all like them (I also spend hours in the garden / park / woods...) The kids do wear designer clothes, but only ones I find in charity shops. Blah blah blah! Maybe a new mummy phrase should be coined for those like me that don't seem to fit into either.....?!Something Wonderful Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04961922429062768831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420360158983455036.post-74554785420896932632010-02-21T21:16:50.276+00:002010-02-21T21:16:50.276+00:00I can relate to that Bakingmadmama although I don&...I can relate to that Bakingmadmama although I don't do music with my two now because up until recently they had it at nursery and I sing to/ with them. When I take 3 almost 4 yr old to ballet, its drop them outside the wooden doors and don't venture in. Yes it's good to have lost the weight but the youngest is 2.5 so there's no excuse for me...Minerva's Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09447242831712367231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420360158983455036.post-25758764197350807422010-02-20T00:02:10.296+00:002010-02-20T00:02:10.296+00:00Excellent post!

My New Year plan to do so has mysteriously fallen by the wayside. <br /><br />Judging by your checklist, I am slummy beyond belief! While I do wear a dress or a skirt most days, I usually manage to compensate by forgetting to brush my hair or wearing tights with a socking great hole in them (and noticing till I get to music class, where all the glam nannies snigger at me).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420360158983455036.post-28110688898013503392010-02-18T23:36:15.852+00:002010-02-18T23:36:15.852+00:00Josie following the quiz above I am definitely in ...Josie following the quiz above I am definitely in the slummy mummy category - just back from dinner out with some lovely mummy friends and I could not be bothered to get changed out of my jeans. In part it was cos I had a two year old who was v unwell and cried every time I left the room but also am of the view that people take me as they find me.<br /><br />Nickie you are welcome. I really enjoy your blog and your passion for what you write shines through. I have heard of threading and have been meaning to try it. So now following your recommendation I am even more determined to give it a go. Just hope it's not painful...Minerva's Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09447242831712367231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420360158983455036.post-78140988572888060052010-02-18T22:14:21.785+00:002010-02-18T22:14:21.785+00:00Oh dear.

I've never been 'yummy' in my life!<br /><br />Admire your energy in 'remaking' yourself.
