Verybusymama
Very Busy Mamá {life, beauty & style} is my space to share things that we as mothers and women love such as fashion, beauty, fitness but often put aside when the children come along. I no longer have the disposable income I had BLM (Before Little M) or the same body. I talk about working with what you got, how to shop your own closet and staying stylish on a MAJOR budget. Looking good doesn't' have to cost a fortune.

Very Busy Mamá {life, beauty & style} is my space to share things that we as mothers and women love such as fashion, beauty, fitness but often put aside when the children come along. I no longer have the disposable income I had BLM (Before Little M) or the same body. I talk about working with what you got, how to shop your own closet and staying stylish on a MAJOR budget. Looking good doesn't' have to cost a fortune. Oh and I talk about some other topics too, such as my work, my travels, my family and my son, of course!
