Assuming you're already wise enough to avoid the tempting but terrible vortex of 3/4 shorts with washed out denim and 9 inch zippers (aka: Mom Jeans), let's move on to the most important upcoming fashion challenge: Summer. Fashionable mama (& owner of Divas & Babes online boutique), Tonjia Cloverdale advises mamas to unleash their inner divas by avoiding the usual old t-shirts, sweatpants, ball cap routine.

But let's not leave out all those parachute/sweats wearing dads out there, shall we? I mean, what is with all the "George Michael ate Kentucky" big daddios schlumping around the grocery store waving the white flag and all but yelling out "I give up!! I am no longer an attractive man! I care nothing for my appearance!"

Why do you think the mean people made up South Beach? For every hardworking gorgeous MILF-y mama out there, there are 800 "I can wear anything I darn well like and still ask you for some lovin'" daddies out there. 'Nuf said.

Say it with me, men: "Just Say No to Frump!!"

Remember when Saturday Night Live was funny? I was in my 20s and life was good.. and this Mom Jeans spoof was nothing more than a twinkle in a Friday night drinkfest's eye. But let's not just pick on moms. Look around and take note of the proliferation of Dad Jeans. You know the ones. They involve tight belt buckles, and waists as high as Aunt Mildred's muumuu. Say it with me: "Mom and Dad Jeans are bad for the human spirit."
