Occasionally coordinating outfits is not as uncommon in the South as it is elsewhere, I will give you that. I say this gently, it’s not the coordinated outfits for photos that is the issue here. But you obviously don’t see the need for change and aren’t getting anything from this conversation so I am backing off. I was truly just trying to help. Don't you think that perhaps myshelly is having some fun with this thread? I don't. She never breaks character and is always over the top

My kids see all the cool stuff that’s happened to them and the attention they get for being a cute family and love it (I mean, do you have any idea how much cool stuff you get chosen to do at WDW and Universal when you’re the cute family in the cutest matching clothes).

How do you ever do anything spontaneous if everyone has to coordinate every time you leave your house together? An impromptu Saturday afternoon trip to the park? Or even something unexpected like a friend who invites you all over for a last minute barbeque? You really ALL have to coordinate? That sounds exhausting to me.

I guess I am fortunate enough to have children who are cute enough on their own to be successful and have fun despite wearing just normal, clean, nice clothing.

I have to fancy wearing an outfit so planning ahead isn’t my cup of tea even though I can see it might save time in a busy life. I have to see what I fancy wearing that day - I can’t imagine planning far ahead at all. myshelly - do you change your mind some days? I’m guessing you live where the weather is pretty predictable- mine would probably be unsuitable for the day’s weather 7 times out of 10! And then there’s also the issue of whole family coordinating. If my family leaves the house together, then we coordinate, with the boys in themed clothes that match the activity and me in colors that coordinate with their outfits. So, for example, there’s a big Monet exhibit here. The boys had button down dress shirts made out of a water lily fabric and I wore coordinating pastels. You can’t just change that at the spur of the moment. Or if we’re going to the theatre the boys will have bow ties made with the logo of the show on them and I’ll dress in coordinating colors. If we’re going to the science museum they’ll have science shirts, natural history museum dino fossil shirts, lego exhibit LEGO shirts, etc. Or if someone is having a party you dress in the theme of the party. Like last weekend my niece had a Sleeping Beauty birthday party so I wore Maleficent leggings and my boys wore dragon maleficent outfits. That makes up a large percentage of our dressing. This is a joke, right? I feel pretty certain you are punking us because my imagination can't even take me to the level of "intensity" you are at with these posts. I'm sorry if this isn't a joke and I don't want to hurt your feelings so if it isn't, I apologize.

We tend to have plans every single day and not deviate from them. When we do something unplanned, it tends to be the kids asking if friends can come home with them from whatever planned activity we did and of course that’s always ok. Or my BFF will text what are you doing and if I’m still dressed from the day then I’ll tag along for whatever she wants me to go do. If I’ve already taken my bra off for the day, it’s probably not going back on 🤣

myshelly if it works for you, and you're obviously having immense amounts of fun with it, then you do you. I think you'll know when your kids have had enough of it and drop it...at least I hope so.
I don't do any clothes prep, prep is exhausting, I'm exhausted, if it's clean I'm wearing it with no thought to anything else. I went to the beach yesterday and had to wear my friends mum's jacket because I'm kind of useless atm.

I also question the wisdom of rearing children in such a rigid way, and with the need for constant recognition and adulation. This doesn’t prepare them well for adulthood, as the cautionary tales of numerous child celebrities tell us. Ordinarily I’m a live and let live person with adults—I don’t give two shits what they do. But when adults impose their, ahem, peccadilloes on their kids, I feel sad for those kids.

I just can't imagine a scenario when children are basically forbidden or brought up not to even think about wanting to spread their wings but I guess, if they're always going to live in a very tight knit unit with extended family then that will be their norm. I just cannot for the life of me picture this family though, I just can't conjure up a mental image for the life of me. Except maybe something like this... Just wanted to add that i’m not suggesting your family dress in such bad taste Myshelly 🙂

I just hang my stuff back in the closet after I've ironed it (my ironing board is in another room). I don't wear jewelry so that's not a consideration but if I did i'd probably just find a way to hang that with the outfit.

My idea of prepping clothes for the week is doing laundry. I spend far too much time doing important things than to worry if the zipper on my jeans matches my purse matches my nail polish. Some people have no fucking clue what real life is like. I prep to help myself in the morning. It isn’t a joy, but a task I feel needs to get done. I get up at 4:15, go to the gym, zip home to shower, and get out the door by 7:00. Prepping isn’t something I want to do, but something that helps me have a less hectic morning. The crazy morning is what my real life is like.

The crazy morning is what my real life is like. That's exactly why I prep both my work clothes and my lunches. I also put anything in the car (in the garage) that needs to go to work the next day that isn't perishable (i.e. homework that I have graded). It just makes for smoother mornings with less that I have to think about.

I have to leave my house for work at 5 am...so I do as much as I possibly can the night before. We wear uniform shirts, so that big decision is off the table. I work 4 12 hr shifts so I hang a pair of pants and one uniform shirt on each of 4 hangers. I am not a jewelry person at all, I have a few special pieces but don't wear it every day. I do kinda have a thing for socks, but I just make sure they are all clean and just grab whichever one strikes my fancy that morning.
Another thing I do is meal prep, and "medicine prep"... That way my meds are all ready to go and I don't have to deal with a bunch of little bottles in the morning.

I know that I’m very privileged to not have to worry about anything bigger than this 🤷🏻♀️ But this is *my* real life and I enjoy it immensely. It’s my personality and my thing and I love it. Through jr high and high school my teachers called me “myshelly and the amazing technicolor dream wardrobe” and through law school and my legal career everyone called me Elle (like from Legally Blonde).

I think that is what people are referring to in regards to the kids rebelling at some point, or deciding that it isn’t cool.

well other than the fact that this thread makes me feel like i live on a different planet from some people.. lol!
i do try to make some outfits bc i'm half asleep in the morning and i also like to try to wear as many things from my closet as i can, not always just that same peach top and print leggings combo... until recently i was matching up my 11 year old's stuff (but it was like... basketball shorts with lime green trim goes with minion shirt that's lime green, no monet bow ties here!) but he told me he's ready to do it himself.

@myshelley you have handled yourself well in what has been somewhat of a pile on.
I believe you. Because I did something similar with matching when my kids were small. All of our clothes were hand me downs, but the SIL who gave me boy clothes had boys two years apart like mine, so there were a lot of matching outfits. Then I’d choose the same or matching color for the rest of us. I think for me, it was a point of honor that even though we were crazy poor, we were put together, clean, ironed, ect. I found with so many little kids that people responded much differently to well dressed polite children, and I figured to helped their self esteem that people reacted so positively to them.
Of course, as they grew and had different tastes, that transitioned out. Although the girls were younger, they were the ones who did not want to wear what I chose. Ha! Mostly they never wanted to wear anything in their closet! Once they were all in school, there was a little money for shopping in stores, and it was a nightmare finding clothes they liked, and then half the stuff they never wore anyway. Boys were super easy, though.
My DD is very similar to @myshelley. The twins are 11, and still love wearing the special bow ties and shirts for church, movies, sporting events, zoo and museum. Her DH loves this as much or more than she does. For several years now, the twins want to have different aspects to their clothes, and they just work to make it coordinated but different.
The thought she puts into the photo shoots we do at least once a year is pretty epic. First she decides on a location. Then the style of photography, ( ie: high key, dreamy, rich color ). Then she chooses the clothes , and for her the hair and makeup style. She absolutely works with the boys to make sure they’re happy with their look. The two year old is usually over the top adorable. Often in a specially made outfit off Etsy. And she’ll have a backup outfit available for him.
But for regular play or school days, it’s whatever they feel like that’s appropriate.
I’ve been trying very hard to wear different outfits rather than just the same ones over and over. I actually have a lot of clothes, thanks to clothing exchanges. I’ve lost weight, and I just haven’t fully taken advantage of the new, fabulous way I can look if I put a little thought and effort into it.
I like some of the ideas laid out here. I did plan out my church outfit Thursday night, pairing a new to me Goodwill dress with a sweater from a clothing exchange, and got a big compliment from the most stylish woman I know, which makes me want to try harder to get out of my rut.

I pick out my outfit the night before and lay it on the bench that is at the foot of my bed. I try not to buy things that need to be ironed or steamed. I decide what I want to wear based on the weather, while I live in a mostly mild climate summer can be a little tricky with how hot it gets and the AC in the office I work in isn’t very reliable.

I’m always fascinated by your posts on stuff like this..I remember your showering routine and it was so extravagant imo. I was watching Heather Dubrow (Real Housewife of OC) youtube channel and you remind me a lot of her...she has the perfect home where everything matches, her whole family tends to match and she’s a very detailed person. I mean this is a total non bitchy way lol..I like Heather..she’s just someone I couldn’t handle in large doses because she’s controls everything and I’m so laid back.

Boy this thread took a bit of turn didn't it. As for the OP, I wish I was more organized and laid out my clothes in advance. I did think a bit in advance when I did GYPO last year and if I worked out of the house I would at least think the night before what I planned to wear but for now we just go with 'relatively clean'. As for myshelly; I admit I'm almost a smidge jealous. I wish my kids/dh would dress a little.....I don't want to say nicer, they're not slobs, but more to my liking (?) sometimes. Not every day, that's just crazy talk but when they were little I would put them in zoo shirts to go to the zoo; visit the Disney store for 7 new tshirts before a WDW trip; shirts to match their b-day party theme; etc. But now I'm just happy if their shirts don't clash with their shorts, kwim? They'll still appease me for family pics every year (for the boys; every couple years to include dh/I) but even then I have limitations on what they'll actually wear, like no way in hell would dh wear pink (ds18 will). Even yds is starting to get an an opinion....damn kids I feel like there are so few years where parents get to choose the party theme/halloween costume/event outfit and if I could squeeze a few extra years out I would.....again, within reason. I also don't have the budget or wardrobe space to be so picky that my purse/shoes/zipper all match day in and day out so there's that too.

I live a few hours from you. I have never met anyone who makes their children, much less a twelve year old, dress in theme every time they leave the house. Do you still make them all drop trou before entering when you come home? The 12 yr old actually gets upset if he doesn’t have a special outfit when we go somewhere 🤷🏻♀️ If he complained about it, I’d have to rethink, but he gets nothing but compliments and loves it. For example, when we’re at shows and we stage door, they always get a TON of attention from the actors and they love that. The actors often ask to take pictures of them and with them. They’ve been on the Instagram accounts of Broadway theatres, actors, and National Tours. As usual, you are full of shit.

I try to prep EVERYTHING the night before (coffee, breakfast, lunch, clothes, etc.) - I don't function very well in the morning and need to be on auto-pilot as much as humanly possible.
For clothes, I put everything on one or two hangers, pants, top, bra, & underwear then hang it on the very front rung in my walk-in. Shoes go underneath on the floor and I usually attach coordinating earrings to the tag of whatever top I'm wearing. If I'm feeling particularly industrious, I will put 5 outfits together on Sunday night, but that's very rare. I'm not particularly fashion conscious, so I tend to wear the exact same outfits to work nearly every week, so that makes it very simple.

My idea of prepping clothes for the week is doing laundry. I spend far too much time doing important things than to worry if the zipper on my jeans matches my purse matches my nail polish. Some people have no fucking clue what real life is like. I don’t wear jeans. I thought I was all alone in this - I really dislike jeans. I have one pair and I can't remember the last time I wore them. Maybe last winter? I just don't find them comfortable, nor am I able to find tops that fit appropriately over them (too tight, too short, etc.) Anyway. When I was out in the world full time I prepped all my outfits for the week on Sunday. No way can I think about clothes first thing in the morning. I was always in the hunt for a Ladie's valet but could never find one. I ended up using hangars and bags (as previously mentioned) and a wardrobe bar in my closet to stage everything.

Going back to the OP... I wish that I had room for a valet. While we have a large bedroom, a valet would stick out like a sore thumb. We don't have a walk-in closet, but one giant long closet that is the whole wall in the bedroom.
I do get my clothes ready the night before though. I get up at least 2 hours before the baby and DH. So I don't wake anyone, I hang my clothes for work in the master bath. Usually just 1 day worth. I am fortunate to work in a very relaxed environment, so 99.9999% of the time I just wear jeans. While it is really relaxed, I still try to wear a nicer shirt. So while I am doing laundry over the weekend, I try to mentally plan what I will be wearing that week.
I DO get clothes together for the baby... well, toddler now. There are 5 days worth stacked neatly on his dresser every Sunday night. This makes it easy for DH to get him dressed Monday and Tuesdays, and for me to get him up and dressed Wed- Fri when I take him to daycare.

Maybe rarely when it hits sub zero temps and we need to dig a car out of the snow, and almost never on a day I am teaching. I understand having "a thing" and enjoying the attention for it. I make my own jewelry and almost always wear a coordinating pin/corsage that I make out of fabric (resembles a flower like a peony). I like envisioning what I want and making it, both the process (crafty) and bc I'd never find exactly what I want in a store. My students and colleagues, as well as strangers, will often remark on it, and several coworkers got me to agree to a little craft session where I showed them how to make one themselves. It's just my thing. I understand the concerns about control and the randomness of life, but everyone will have to face that in their own way when the time comes, assuming it does. My SO chooses to coordinate with what I am wearing when we go out. I have nothing to do with it beyond me telling him I'm wearing a red dress or whatever. It surprised me at first, bc it felt a little prom-y, but now I just think it's sweet. And our pictures look nice too. 😉 Attachments:

The 12 yr old actually gets upset if he doesn’t have a special outfit when we go somewhere 🤷🏻♀️ If he complained about it, I’d have to rethink, but he gets nothing but compliments and loves it. For example, when we’re at shows and we stage door, they always get a TON of attention from the actors and they love that. The actors often ask to take pictures of them and with them. They’ve been on the Instagram accounts of Broadway theatres, actors, and National Tours. As usual, you are full of shit. How?
