There is already very little time left until such a significant moment - the graduation party in kindergarten for your own child. You have long decided on gifts, songs, and treats. But often for a mother, like for any woman, one more question remains unresolved - what to wear to kindergarten?
What can you wear and what absolutely cannot?
Let's assume that graduation in kindergarten will take place during the daytime, and the venue will be the kindergarten itself. As far as we know, graduation celebrations in kindergartens most often take place this way. The option with restaurants and other bells and whistles is in most cases left for school.
Therefore, it is better not for mom to wear an evening dress or a floor-length concert dress. Stunning necklines and minis are also not an option. This is a children's holiday, and a woman has a very specific role here - a parent.. Therefore, you need to look relatively strict, elegant and dignified at the same time. Difficult? Not really. The main thing is to maintain balance.
I will never forget how at the graduation party of my eldest’s group, one mother came more dressed up than her own daughter - in a fluffy long dress and some kind of incredible lace cape, and the second parent did not bother at all - she dressed in sweatpants and a short T-shirt. Both mothers looked simply stunning next to each other. You don’t even know who was “more appropriate.”
Advice! Before choosing an outfit, carefully find out which style your “colleagues” at the celebration will prefer.
What styles of clothing are preferable?
Probably a summer pantsuit is a good option. It is better to choose something light, simple cut. Elegant, but not pretentious. Or you can wear a summer dress - straight, a-line, sheath - of your choice. Floral print is welcome.
And here lace is best left for another celebration. Pay attention to the length of the skirt or dress. And it’s not even about the fact that it’s a children’s holiday. Most likely, parents will have to sit in the improvised auditorium on the children's benches! They are lower than regular chairs, and everyone will have cameras, phones, video cameras. Should I explain further?
And the main task for mothers at this event is make sure that the graduate or alumna correctly recites the assigned rhyme, dances the waltz well and captures all this on the appropriate medium. You need to dress a certain way, first of all, for a group photo. So Mom's outfit should be appropriate for the occasion and comfortable at the same time.
Many moms will opt for capri pants, a blouse, and something like a jacket on top (it was cool). This casual look looks much more appropriate than the “outfits” described above by some parents.
Advice! Always keep two weather options in mind - hot and not so hot.In June, when graduations take place, the weather can be completely unpredictable.
Shoes, accessories, details
Just like clothes, shoes should be comfortable.. When choosing the height of the heel, calculate your strength correctly. Are you sure that the restless parent committee together with the teachers haven’t come up with some kind of sack running competition for the graduates’ parents? And one more thumbs up for high heels, especially if you prefer a dress - remember about that very low children's bench on which you will have to sit.
Don't forget that this graduation, by and large, just a children's party. Bright accessories, like jewelry, will not be entirely appropriate. But you shouldn’t wear sundresses with bare shoulders - for such a celebration the outfit should be more restrained.
Should mother and daughter dress alike?
This choice should be taken with caution. Even if both you and your daughter really want it. Family-look will undoubtedly attract attention. But this is an outfit for a family celebration. My daughter’s graduation is her holiday. Only she should be the center of attention. Well, and a dozen more boys and girls from her group, but not mom! It’s better to leave this outfit for your joint outing - it will be more appropriate.
