Help pleasešš
Alternative mummies- help pleaseš
So before getting pregnant/giving birth I was so confident to be my alt self and I knew how to dress myself
My LG is now nearly 15 months old and I have absolutely no clue how to dress myself anymore- I bumped into an old friend that I haven't seen for a while and she said that I actually look like a mum now and that I seem to have calmed down with how I look
I miss how I used to look/dress so much, I just don't know how to get myself back, especially with how my body is looking these days- I've gained so much weight, gone from a size 14 to a size 22 (I'm working on getting back down) and my belly hangs down so much now, I hate wearing shorter shirts and I'm more favouring baggy shirts/jumper's all of the time
Any help/advice with this would be greatly appreciated, thank you so muchā¤ļø

@Star I can't afford the big websites, even before my baba, I was always a charity shop girl for my clothes/the occasional treat from Afflecks Palaceš I'm not allowed my piercings because of work, I used to have my septum done, but I did dye my hair red and green the other week and it's making me feel more like myself alreadyš when I've saved a bit of money I'm planning to get rid of all of my clothes and start again with it allšš
@Faith honestly, I can't afford those sites except the occasional treat but I use them as inspo š Vinted might be a shout though?
Hey mumma, I think the trick is, have a look on disturbia, killstar, and other alt clothing websites, find stuff that makes you feel comfortable, buy different items & try them out on yourself and see what works for you. Go baggy, add a belt š„¹ Try & pop some eyeliner on & see how you feel. My whole body has changed too and idk how to be the "old me" especially because my partner's family are VERY religious š« and I'm really not. They call me the "punk rocker" and I've not had coloured hair for a few years. Although I have a fair few piercings and tattoos. I actually broke my lip ring when pregnant, and haven't had a new tattoo in ages, I decided that, end of this month, I'm going to get 2 new tats and get my lip ring back before it closes up š hoping from that, everything else will follow.
