Celebrities seem like they have it all: money, fame, and on top of that they still find a way to be incredible mothers!
You may think it is impossible to have their finesse without a few commas in your bank account but we are going to breakdown the glamour of celebrity moms and how you and your children can live the celebrity life even when your broke.
Warning: I am not condoning inappropriate behavior or to live beyond your means in order to live a lavish lifestyle that is used only to be fake on social media. On the contrary I am giving you tools to live your best life as a mother and feel like you are a celebrity in your own right because you are embracing your inner stardom.
So let’s hop into the good stuff and live the glamorous frugal life.
1.Shop Sales
Celebrity Moms always have a fresh look. Their children are always wearing the latest trends and starting some of their own. Though you can’t afford the latest and greatest fashion there are still ways for you and your children to look their best and make a statement.
The best way to get good deals on clothing is to buy off season. This means buying your clothes a season behind. Buy Winter in the Spring, Spring in the Summer, and Summer in the Fall. You will get extreme discounts on the cutest clothes for you and your little one for a fraction of the price.
If you don’t want to hit the racks then get virtual. Shop at online brands such as Boohoo, Fashion Nova, Rainbow Shoppes, and Amazon. Most of these online shops ship from Asia which gives you pieces at a deep discount.
They are also always having sales and promotions so make sure you don’t miss out on that. Do not pay regular price for clothes! There are so many ways to save money on clothes that won’t break the bank.
Repurpose clothing you already have this article shows you different ways to style one item or clothes you already have in your closet. You can also thrift for name brand clothing for a fraction of regular prices.
2. Get A “Nanny”
Obviously, you don’t have the funds for a full time nanny, who does?
The point is, you need help. Find someone you trust that will watch your kids every now and then so you can have a date night with a significant other or a girls night out.
Whether that is your parents or a close friend or teenager you can pay.
There are also multiple apps and sites that you can use for babysitters if you feel comfortable such as Sitter City and Care.com.
Celebrities have a team to take stress off of them. If you have to take care of your kids 24/7 you will not feel good and be your best self. Every mom needs a break sometimes famous or not!
3. Get Products That Are Worth Your Money
The idea is not to get products that are expensive just because. The idea is to get products that are inexpensive, functional, and make them seem cool.
Celebrities do not have the basic baby products that the mother next door has, they have new, innovative, and gifted products. Check out this whole article on expensive newborn products that are not worth the price and see what to buy instead.
These items are so much more functional and stylish but will not cost you your first born! Also, don’t hesitate to use baby items handed down through the family. I used my nieces old crib for my son. We gave it a fresh coat of paint and it looks so chic and stylish everyone thought I paid a fortune for it.
4. Treat Your Kids To Fun Free Activities
Famous moms treat their kids to lavish vacations, explorative schools, and luxurious birthdays. You don’t have to do all of that for your kids to do activities they will enjoy. \
Find fun cheap activities for your kids to do and take lots of pictures and make a scrapbook. Don’t have any idea where to start? I’ve listed out multiple activities for your kids to do at the house and still have tons of fun!
Another tip is to look for free activities in your town or city and take advantage of as many as you can. The more fun you have the more other moms will start to look at you as the cool mom who knows how to have a good time.
Just by doing this alone you will feel like a celebrity mom in your community.
5. Name Your Child Something Unique
Obviously this is a little controversial. Names can be a very sore topic as everyone has reasons for the name they pick but in this case we are talking about living a celebrity lifestyle and this is what a majority of them do.
Celebrities think very deeply and analytically about what to name their children. Whatever name they choose it is always very unique and original.
Though us commoners have to think about our kids getting a job, you can still come up with amazing names that are significant to you but are unique, interesting, and all the moms will wonder how you thought of it.
Here is an A-Z list of unique baby names that everyone will envy.
6. Take Time To Enjoy Your Kids
Famous moms are usually very busy so they cherish every second of time they have with their kiddos. Make every moment with your child memorable and appreciate learning and growing with them.
What is your child’s favorite thing to do? Figure out how to fit that into your schedule as often as possible. Also take time to yourself. Celebrities know they work hard so they treat themselves to their favorite things.
If there is something you enjoy doing or maybe its just taking an hour to yourself to read a good book you work 24/7 as a mom and you deserve to enjoy life and live it to the fullest and that is how you can look like a celebrity mom even when your broke.
