Moms R The Best: T-Shirts For Mom Giveaway

"I'm a busy mom I need a CLONE"... Truer words have not been spoken!

Here's my life... I get up every morning and take a long, hot, luxurious bath. I then dress up in freshly laundered and ironed clothing and style my hair to perfection. I then put on a full face of makeup and top it off with some perfume and... then I wake up! Ha! How many stay at home moms of two toddlers do this? If so, PLEASE tell me your secret.

In reality, most days I wear pajama pants and a t-shirt or a t-shirt and jeans for a large portion of the day. Many times, the t-shirt is old, stretched out and faded. Dressing like this makes me feel not so great. On the days I make an effort, I feel much better. With that being said, I was excited to find out about another mom (she has three little ones... ages 1, 2 and 5 years old and, yes, her youngest are Irish twins) who has made it her business to help moms like me out in the style department. Moms R The Best is "a mom-owned company that offers quality, fashionable tees for busy moms who still want to have a feminine appeal even while handling everyday business".

The owner, Cheryl Wood, describes how Moms R The Best was born best...

"As a wife, working mother, and entrepreneur I rarely have time to step into clothes any fancier than jeans and a t-shirt. As I'm sure you can relate, most of my time is spent running errands, cleaning up toys, handling household chores, or chauffering the kids here-and-there. Because my life is so fast-paced it's important that I am comfortable, yet, I don't want to look frumpy or dowdy. That is what prompted me to start MOMS R THE BEST. We offer fashionable, yet comfortable, t-shirts for busy moms who still want to feel chic even while handling everyday business. Our tees are slim-fitted to flatter the female silhouette versus many boxy tees designed for women. Even better, my tees contain spunky and meaningful slogans that every mom can relate to..."


I received two sizes of the "I'm a busy mom, I need a CLONE" t-shirt. This long sleeve tee comes in navy. It features 100% preshrunk ringspun cotton, bound on self trim neck, it is sideseamed for a slim fit and has double needle stitching on the bottom hem. I received two sizes to try so I could review how the two differ and fit. Depending on how a shirt is made, I sometimes wear one size and sometimes wear another. Since these are fitted, I wasn't sure which size to order. The smaller version fit me snugly and looked nice. For those wanting a bit baggier fit, a size up is suggested. I found this shirt to be very well made and it stood up to toddlers pulling on it, washing and drying. I have gotten a lot of compliments on it with people saying things like, "Amen, sister, me too!" and "I need THAT shirt!".

Some other slogans I really liked were...


The "A Woman's Work Is Never Done" tee is sooo true as well. I am partial to pink so I really love this one. I think I will have to add it to my wardrobe soon.

The "Mom Body Under Construction" tee one is one a lot of moms can relate to, right? Love it!

Buy: The tee I reviewed is currently on sale for $23 during their holiday sale so check it out! Moms R The Best doesn't leave dad, grandma or the kids out, either. Check out their onesies, tees and caps for your loved ones while you're at the website found at http://www.momsrthebest.com/.

I am not a mom... I am a home daycare provider to 6 kiddos, and Auntie to 9 nieces and nephews and have one great niece. My uniform is the same just about everyday. Most comfortable pair of Jeans, and a Tee Shirt. either long sleeved or short depending on the weather. Sometimes a little baby spit up.. or extra food added to the ensemble.
Thanks

I'd go with I'm a Busy Mom I Need a Clone. Such a true statement!!
Thanks for the chance!!

lmkirb said...

During the winter most days I wear a turtleneck...cold New England days!...a sweatshirt and jeans. When it's warmer I usually have on a t-shirt, shorts or capris and my flip flops.
I have 3 kids of my own, all teens, plus I run a daycare with most days 6 little ones running or crawling around. Between playing on the floor, cooking, the usual shoulder with spit up, I find having something comfy and practical much easier and more practical to waer.
Thanks for the chance!!
