The pop star wore five-inch heels for the occasion \u2013 will she be wearing these in 6 months I wonder?\n\nOnce, and I might add it was for a reason (I was late getting back from work). I did do the school run in an outfit worthy of the above. Decked out in heels and a dress that cost more than my mortgage I raced into school feeling like a right twit. Aside from being asked if I was having an affair, most of the mums looked at me in pity as I chased (or should I say scarily tottered after) my 18 month old in the playground.\n\nThe only one who was suitably impressed was my daughter who loudly announced to her friends that \u2018My mum looks like a Bratz Doll (I had stacks of TV make up on)\u2019, which in turn had me reaching for a baby wipe.\n\nSo this obsession the papers have with what mums wear on the school run makes me laugh. Most of us here in the UK don\u2019t care what we wear because we know we\u2019re not walking a catwalk. Am I right, or am I wrong? Let me know your experiences.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Just in case you\u2019re bored this half term and have nothing better to do (fat chance I know), one subject to ponder is your back to school wardrobe.
