Momiform MAKEover: Day 8

September 29, 2015

Whew. I am loving all these great momiform MAKEovers, but I'm also quite tired!! :) I'll be sad to see the series end tomorrow, but I'm SOO excited to announce all the winners of the amazing giveaways. Speaking of giveaways - I have been thinking of announcing the winners LIVE on Periscope. How fun would that be?! Don't worry, I'll also announce all the winners here.

Let's get on with these final looks!

First, we have Maegan of Mae & K. I absolutely love the photo below because it's soooo real! Seriously, this is my life, too (only with another kid in the picture)! You'll have to click over to her blog to see what she did for her makeover!

Next, we have Denita of HattieLu Handmade. This dress she created looks so comfy and also bright and comfortable! Go check out all the details on her blog!

Finally, we have Heidi from Handmade Frenzy. Heidi always makes THE cutest stuff. And I just love that her youngest guy is in the photos with her! Heidi says, "As a stay-at-home-mom to 3 young kids, it seems my momiform can always use improvement. During my pregnancy and directly after the birth of my third, something clicked for me. I realized that the level of my mood and motivation had a direct link to the way I was dressed and to the level of cray-cray, aka, messes in my house. Having struggled with some baby blues during the first year of my second child's life, I knew I had to make an effort in order for that not to happen again with my third (who is now 6 months old)."

Looking so, so good, Heidi! You are an inspiration!

Okay, girls! Today is the LAST day to enter the fab giveaways below! I hope to have the winners all posted tomorrow, but if not, I'll get to it in the next couple days. My inlaws are visiting through the end of the week, so I may not have time to get it done right away. But don't worry, I'm as excited to find out as you all are! Thanks so much for playing along! xoxo

Momiform MAKEover: Day 7

September 28, 2015

So...I have LOVED all the looks I've shared with you so far in the Momiform MAKEover, but I must admit...today's are some of my favorites! I think I like today's looks so much because I could see myself wearing any/all of them on a regular basis. They are all super modern, functional and comfortable-looking. So good. Let's check them out!

First, we have Kaysie of KZJO'Studio. She made several looks that you will LOVE, but isn't this Sally Jumpsuit just amazing? She looks so comfortable, modern and sophisticated. Click over to her blog to see all her fabulous looks.

Next, Gemia of Phat Quarters added these two stylish tops to her momiform repertoire, and I just can't get over that Sutton Blouse. Ahem, Gemia lives nearby...perhaps I should go steal it?

Always the overachiever, Jennifer of A Jennuine Life sewed up several looks to fill holes in her momiform wardrobe. I just LOVE the way she photographed everything! So fun. She used several great patterns that you'll have to go check out on her blog.

Kimberly of Straight Stitch Designs is a great friend and someone whose handmade style I always love. This outfit is no exception! Kimberly says, "My normal momiform consists of whatever I see when I am getting dressed in the morning which honestly is usually a Greenwood tank and a Laurelhurst Wrap, or a t-shirt and jeans. Nothing fancy really, so when I choosing what outfit to sew to Upgrade My Momiform I knew it had to be practical or I wouldn't grab for it in the morning. I modified the Cali Faye Gardenia dress into a hi-lo tunic and made a pair of Jocole Skinny Pants in a red denim. The pants are still a work in progress as they are by no means skinny but overall I am happy with the result."

Check out all the details on her blog!

Last in today's set of bloggers is Terri from Sew Straight & Gather. The collage she submitted below was exactly what I had in mind when I created this series. So funny (and so true!). Terri's makeover really hit home for me because, as you can see, she also upgraded her makeup and hair look. This is something I need to do since my routine usually involves a bare face and messy (not in a good way) ponytail or even a hat. I love the inspiration here!

Just one day left to enter to win and take advantage of these great deals from our sponsors!

Momiform MAKEover: Day 6

September 27, 2015

Today we continue the makeover fun with five gorgeous stitchin' moms who have made over their daily uniforms. Without further ado... First, we have Kymy of Everything Your Mama Made & More. Kymy is a pattern designer who always impresses me with her knowledge and skill as a business woman. Plus, she's a great mom! She sewed up several different looks including this fabulous yoga outfit. These are both patterns from her own collection, but you'll have to click through to her blog to get the details! She also sewed up several other looks that you'll love.

Next, we have Kymy's assistant, Joelle, who also decided to get in on the fun! The colors in this comfortable knit top suit Joelle to a tee, don't you think?

Joelle says, "As a SAHM, I spend 75% of my time looking sloppy in stained, ill-fitting store-bought loungewear because I'm "saving" my handmade to "show off" when I leave the house. I decided it's about time I put a little more effort into looking nice even at home (and I'm sure my hubby agrees). ;-)"

Lookin' fab, Joelle! You can see the rest of her photos and details on Kymy's blog (links above).

Next up is Teri from Climbing the Willow. About her looks, she said, "Essentially it's a post about sticking with the basics until I figure out what my style even is any more. After seventeen years of being a stay-at-home mom who never really needed to have any style (unless maternity counts as a style) or pay attention to fashion trends (nothing looks good with spit-up) I feel like I'm starting from the beginning. And honestly, I'm not really even sure what I want my style to be :) Although I did get a new haircut which feels like a great beginning!"

Love that haircut, and I love all these mix-and-match looks.

Sarah Lynn...oh, Sarah Lynn. She always looks stunning, don't you think? And this mama has three little ones including a new-ish baby (4-months now!). She had a couple hiccups along the way during her sewing, but I'm totally impressed with this gorgeous dress. I LOVE the burnout she chose, and she looks quite comfortable yet lovely.

She said, "I will be reviewing my very favorite clothing item, the Everyday Maxi by See Kate Sew. As my body has changed from pregnant to postpartum, this dress has been my best friend in my wardrobe. Perfect for chasing my crazy kids while still looking like a lady." Hop over to Shaffer Sisters to get all the details.

Finally, we have Melissa of Rebel & Malice. I LOVE that she has this hardcore look on her face as she pushes the stroller in her photos! So rad. Melissa looks amazing, and you have to click over to see all her fab momiform looks.
