“Can I tell y’all a secret? Lean in close. I don’t actually hate mom jeans. And I’m really not trying to rage against them. Instead, I want to rage against the notion that moms, women of a certain age, or really just women in general shouldn’t wear certain things. Because y’all? We’re gonna wear whatever trends make us feel good.
And we’re gonna rock them.
P.S. Somehow y’all actually care about my life and family, and not just my (not at all professional) fashion tips. A) I appreciate that so much. And B) don’t worry. My best stories come from the little monsters that I call children. I’m HERE FOR sharing those stories. But ya know, the REAL ones. The ones that will make you spew coffee out of your nose. The ones that let us all know that yes, motherhood is ridiculous sometimes. Like the time my daughter tried to name my son Lucifer. Or the time I wore my pants backwards AND inside out to pick up my kids from school. We’re going to know that we aren’t alone in this.
Rage Against the Mom Jean is a place where we are going to rage against the notion that being a mom = wearing ugly clothes and being a slave to your HIGHLY DEMANDING offspring. Moms are much more than that.
Again, motherhood is hard. We’re gonna laugh about it, and look stylish doing it.”

If we get the kids a fresh pair of sneakers every year for school, when is it time for mom to get new sneakers? Check out a few of my favorites here!
Richie has become the poster child for the “quiet luxury” trend. Her style embodies simplicity, class, and timelessness. Here are some of her looks for less.

One day it’s freezing, the chance of snow floating around–but the next it’s bright, sunny and you're overheating in a sweater. As we move into more transitional weather, instead of dressing for one extreme or the other–we need to master the art of layering our clothes–creating versatile, flattering outfits that keep you prepared for anything and everything!
***it’s an oldie but a goodie today! I promise you guys some new content as soon as I stop having panic attacks about the beginning of life with a MIDDLE. SCHOOL. GIRL. #allthedrama #allthetime
It’s a little ironic that Scotties reached out to me about collaborating on a project, because the sheer amount of tissues my people have been using over the last 2 months will probably bankrupt us soon. So when Scotties asked if they could send me some boxes featuring their new spring designs, I was all SEND HELP AND BY HELP I MEAN ALLLLLL THE TISSUES AND BTW WHEN CAN WE START?!
Now, we’re into allergy season. So guess what we need more of? TISSUES. If I’m being honest, I’ve kind of avoided the “conveniently placed tissue box” route, in favor of the “blow your nose until it’s raw using only toilet paper and paper towels” method. Why? Because most tissue boxes aren’t all that decorative. Enter Scotties spring designs, which look great in virtually every room in my home. Not only that, there are SO MANY fun ways to upcycle these bad boys. My personal favorite is using the empty boxes to make a cute spring-y garland.
It’s that time of year again, y’all. You know, the one where we overcommit to every holiday event we can find. And then proceed to lose our ever-loving minds.
And all of our ever-loving money too.
IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR, DANG IT.

The Thanksgiving dressing isn’t all about the delicious warm side in a casserole dish, but it’s also about your outfit and the way you decide to dress literally! With that being said, I will be sharing a few of my favorite Thanksgiving fashion outfits and trends that you can participate in this turkey day.
The temperature is dropping, the holiday decorations are being stocked on the shelves, what’s missing? The deals. Don’t worry, they are coming quickly and some are already here! We are less than a month away from the “official” deals on Black Friday, but plenty of stores are already offering their discounts to us.
The fashion industry is constantly changing and evolving with the times. With that, people are constantly changing in their sense of fashion and wondering the impact their clothes might have on the environment. So some may ask, what is the environmental impact of my clothes? What are the materials….

A Bo and his steak. He's basically a miniature Ron Swanson.
Guys if there's one thing you know about me by now, it's this: convenience is my love language. Along with Anthropologie, marshmallows, and Starbucks, #letsbehonest.
Combine convenience with healthy eating, and Sherri is HERE FOR IT. (Sherri is apparently also here for referring to herself in third person.)
When Karv reached out to ask if I would try their subscription service, I really couldn't say yes fast enough. Karv is a monthly subscription service that delivers the finest-quality U.S. meats and oven-ready entrées, straight to your doorstep.
Can we all just agree that athleisuring is totally a verb? Pleaseandthankyou
Like, if it were an athletic sport, I would easily medal in it. And can the Olympic committee get right on that?
Y'all, it's been unprecedentedly cold around these parts. Like, sub-30, which means everything should be canceled, while we all go don our Uggs, sweats, and binge watch basically anything on Netflix. Go ahead all you Northerners, roll your eyes. I'll wait.
Last fall and winter, I engaged in what I will call the Season of Bad Decisions. This involved me deciding that donuts don't actually have calories, and wine is good for you. In other words, NO.
I hopped on the scale two days after Christmas, because I really needed to add to my post-holiday depression. I was noticing clothes were fitting slightly less comfortably, so I anticipated a minimal and (not at ALL alarming) 5 lb gain or so.
Remember way back in college, when you could eat a chicken biscuit, drink a 36 oz mountain dew, and inhale a sleeve of pringles? In ONE SITTING? You didn't feel bad. You just rallied, ate some cookie dough, and then lost 5 lbs.
Yeah, I hate College Sherri a little too.

With Mother’s Day approaching soon, I thought it would be fun and useful to share some gift ideas with you all.
Well, sometimes you plan to have all kinds of great holiday content pre-planned and ready to go the moment Black Friday hits. You just KNOW you’ll be super organized and on top of it, JUST LIKE ALWAYS AND WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING LIKE THAT?
#rude #butalsoaccurate
My goal was to plan content for the entire month of December, well in advance. And by “well in advance,” I mean November 29th, because apparently I DO NOT understand my actual personality or my organizational capabilities.
But, as The People Who Make Up Cheesy Quotes once said, Life is what happens when you’re busy making plans. And I’d just like to rephrase that in a way that feels more authentic:
Appendicitis is what happens WHEN YOU’RE BUSY MAKING PLANS. x
Sometimes you wanna Pinterest up an amazing, creative Halloween costume that impresses all of Instagram, I mean, YOUR SWEET CHILDREN, who, have apparently "always wanted a fun mom that dresses up for Halloween."
Good to know.
But then, other times you just wanna justify those new moto boots you bought. Or that camo jacket you’ve been eyeing. Or the red ringmaster coat that a certain someone said was too “extra,” but you just KNEW that one day there would be a highly popular movie about a musically gifted dreamer who opens his own circus. Or ya know. Something like that.
...is the worst. The end.
Just kidding. Mostly. But I'll bet some of you #girlmoms will relate so hard to this post. When our daughters were babies and toddlers, it was REALLY FUN to dress them, right? Whether you were into smocking or skinny jeans, cold shoulder shirts or big bows, it's like playing dress up with a cute doll. One who cries, poops, and throws tantrums. yes. But a doll who will at least wear what the heck you spend your cash money on, because DOESN'T SHE KNOW PEOPLE PAY YOU TO DO THIS??. A-HEM.
