My Posh Story

My #momdrabtomomfab transformation started with Poshmark and a haircut. For too long, I embraced the S@HM stereotype: I went everywhere in yoga pants (ok I admit...they were sweatpants!) and sneakers, with my hair in a sloppy ponytail. Maybe jeans for a change of pace. I didn't feel badly about the way I looked, but I didn't feel good either. I cut my hair short (no more lazy hair days), joined Poshmark, and found my style again! It feels great to "look good", especially when my husband notices!

Hello my name is Nahla. Welcome to our BIG POSH nationwide family! You will love it just as much as I do. These people are best people you'll ever find so far away yet so close to home. Anyone of them at anytime can help you with any question that you might have and if they can't help you they either will find out for you or lead you in the right direction. If not just ask me I will try to help you any way I can! We are all just a tag away!❤️ They will have your back with thieves and scammers or as I call them "Scummers" and yes they're out there. But these Poshers almost always find them and help shut them down. Also any one of us are a tag away! So follow Posh rules and have fun and always remember POSH FAMILY LOVE!😍💕😘💞👏💐Thanks @katz2 for the tag!

Your closet is so neat and beautiful!

Love this!💕 one mustn't forget our inner mom-shionista! Even if she's got babies tugging at her hair, her clothes, wiping boogies on her shirt--that hair and that shirt must still be fabulous!

Super cute :)

Shannon! This sounds SO similar to MY story, but I guess I just never really thought about it before! Pleasure to meet you! I sure love being able to be "my style" for less...LOL I have found EVERYTHING that my little heart desires on Posh and I rarely even shop retail anymore...heehee I have also been very fortunate to have met some very fabulous women on this site, that I now call friends. I never even imagined I would meet "friends" online...heehee Quite a community here :) WELCOME!!!
mands13
Love! And I am 100% that stereotype! When I put yoga pants on that is my "dressing up" days haha.
chrissie_marie
You're so cute! I love your honesty and adore your fabulous closet!!! 💕
shamalban
@chrissie_marie Thanks for your kind words and shares Chrissie!
shamalban
@mands13 Being cozy is a really bad habit, and very hard to break! Especially in the winter. I admit, this endless winter we are having is killing me softly and I'm falling back into sweatpants more and more. Springtime will release me 😊
mands13
Well you look great! Love your style 💕. Omg I hate the winter. I'm in NH. Where are you located? I just want summer 😩😋
shamalban
@mands13 YES! You know what I'm talking about. I start out winter being all "Yay! Scarves and boots and sweaters and coats!" And now I'm like, "If I have to wear a coat today I'm going to stab someone". I definitely suffer from late-season Seasonal Affective Disorder and I've been in a real funk. LOL, hang in there! Our skin will see sunlight soon!

@rmzambrano Thanks Regina!
laskinr
@shamalban Great story Shannon and your hair looks fantastic😊😊😊
shamalban
@laskinr Aw, thank you! I just had another baby (our third) on Friday, so I'm sure being stylish will take the back burner again for a few months. Ah, the glamorous life...😊
laskinr
@shamalban Shannon, Congrats to you and your hubby😍😍. What are the ages of your kids? Boys/girls?? I am sure you will be back to your slim beautiful self, with your short tousled "do" in a few months😜😜. You do have your hands full for a while though😳😳
shamalban
@laskinr We have a 7 yr old boy and a 3.5 yr old girl. Yes, hands (and heart) are completely overflowing!
laskinr
@shamalban Best wishes to you and your family Shannon!! I wish you continued good health and happiness and lots of sales on PM😃😃😃
heydolly83
@shamalban Just had to tell you that I LOVE the way you style your pictures!!! You have a great eye for style! :)
shamalban
@heydolly83 Thank you so much for the kind words Jessica! 😘
ball_mom
Ahhhhh! My story is so similar, especially after taking an amazing job working from home. I found Posh, and I started slowly pulling myself out of a sloppy slump. We have 3, too! 11, 10, and 2. Love this post!
shamalban
@ball_mom I think most moms can relate. It's just so easy to wear sweatpants all day, right? I just had our third (she's 5 weeks). I'm in that weird place where I don't need maternity anymore, but my pre-baby stuff doesn't fit right either. I usually have spit up on me and it's getting colder. Sooooo...I'm back in my sloppy slump. I just want to hibernate and snuggle my baby all winter! I'll be back to my former, more posh, self soon!
ball_mom
You DEFINITELY get a pass to relax and snuggle a baby all winter. I truly couldn't get back into my clothes until about 6 months post-baby. Ever. No matter what I did. We have three as well. Our youngest is 2. Our other two are 11 and 10. It's amazing to have a baby in the house, although I am quickly running out of "baby" time. He's our last, so I'm soaking up every minute without a moment's guilt. I love your story! Hope you get lots of snuggles today! 💕
yassic
@shamalban Congrats on your baby! What great news. I was a working mom until 2 years ago. So I went from fabulous (at least in my opinion) to frumpy when I became a SAHM, simply because I had no idea how to dress casual but nice. I lived in yoga pants and a pony tail. I too chopped off my locks. Posh has been a blessing bc I get so many good ideas! I'm getting the hang of casual style now :) Love your story! Oh and yes, I am a best freak as well :)
yassic
Best freak = neat freak

@shamalban You have a great closet! Love it!

Ever try GAP? I swear by their jeans for quality and styles. I have a smaller waist, but my hip bones are enormous. I love their long and lean, but they have a curvy line you may like. I have a lot of Banana jeans & cords, but not a fan of their pants. For me at least...
lilmerricat
Cute! This made me smile. :D
believebig
I relate to this story all the way around. Fellow mom of little ones who struggled a bit to put a little of myself into my new mom identity and found a great outlet in Posh. Share the faith too, which inspired my closet name. Nice to meet you!
kristenvanness
Great story!! I have been there. Thank you for sharing!!
shamalban
@believebig Thank you! Since posting this, I've had another baby and I'm back in my all-day yoga attire, and getting dressed less often. That's ok though, I know the stylish momma is in there somewhere, and she will rise again for date nights, and more permanently when poopy diapers and spit up subside 😊
shamalban
@believebig Unrelated, but your Posh name reminds me of another wonderful momma I know. She fought (and beat) Stage 4 colon cancer using alternative medicine and huge doses of faith. She has a foundation named Believe Big, and through it she is working with her doctors at Johns Hopkins to conduct clinical trials using mistletoe to treat colon (and other) cancers. It's pretty huge; an incredible story. Google her and read about the woman who shares your "Believe Big" philosophy! 😘
jamieandbrannon
Love this! I am definitely in your "before" stage (but I do yoga in my yoga pants... That's my excuse lol). I keep saying I need to get out of this rut.... However I don't!
