REAL MOM

By Eryn Vargo

REAL Mom Summer is all about redefining sexy and what “hot” moms are. We want to promote body positivity and share how we feel about the unrealistic societal " norms " expected of moms.

REAL Mom Summer showcases REAL mom bodies and smashes the unrealistic and often dangerous societal “norm” of what we are expected to be after having children.

We each wore what made us feel sexy and the photos depict confident women that love the skin they are in!

Yes, we may wear shapewear, some of us may get botox while others do lash tints and get facials, some of us have micro blading and others have never touched a bottle of hair dye- BUT we all LOVE ourselves....and

THAT is a REAL “HOT” MOM…the confident mom that does not let society determine her worth or tell her what hot and sexy are!

We live in a completely backwards society that does not appreciate mothers unless there are strings attached. These strings are unrealistic expectations for us and of us bounce back after having a baby look "good" all the time always smile be cheery and happy regardless of life's circumstances dress up regularly wear make-up work, but take care of your kids love your kids, but don't smother them loose weight be sexy, but not like that, like this... don't breastfeed in public, but don't bottle feed look like a Jenner/Kardashian work out twice a day make self-care a priority, but don't ignore the kids

It is true, we have one day a year that we are celebrated But let's be REAL here- Mother’s Day is NOT enough to honor all that us mothers do for our families, let alone what we have to endure as mothers in this wild world we live in. Is Mother’s Day enough to combat all of the unrealistic pressure our society puts on us?

No. The answer is simply NO.
