I find myself wearing yoga pants more for daycare then I do for yoga these days!

Just curious what you all wear? And do you stay in those clothes all day?

Today I had to change my shirt by 9am and was covered in spit up.

I wear the same or I wear cute jogger suits.
Yesterday I was doing back handsprings trying to show off to the kids. Lol. So I always wear comfortable clothing.

LOL I would be in traction if I attempted back hand springs! There I would be on the lawn telling the oldest "Call 911! Call 911!"

Winter I wear jeans/capris with sweaters, long sleeve tees, yoga/exercise pants. Sometimes I wear boots. Sometimes flats or sneakers.

Summer is shorts and tees.

We are in in-between weather right now and I haven't unpacked winter clothes yet so I am layering. Shorts with a tee and a sweatshirt or a zip up hoodie over top. Cold in the mornings and nice in the afternoons so far.

I wear scrubs. Usually the whole outfit but sometimes I wear a scrub top with a pair of jeans. I figure at least this way I won't ruin my good clothes

Yoga pants and tshirts here, too. I've tried wearing jeans and scrubs and I was sooooo uncomfortable.

I wear yoga pants and a t-shirt. I have some scrub pants that I will wear with a t-shirt too.

I have tried wearing my good clothes, but I don't like having to be cautious when we are painting or getting messy. I also like being able to get down on the floor and bend over and reach with ease.

I know some members on the forum are very against wearing sweats/yoga pants - but I don't mind. I always look neat and nice, and am not sloppy. My clients all know I am on the floor all day and want to be comfortable.

Me too- I used to wear t-shirts with our daycare logo but scrubs stay looking nice longer. I wear shorts in the summer and scrub bottoms or slacks in the winter.

Yoga pants or jeans, VS sweat suits or track suits, sometimes I will wear my ****, but usually converse when out.

Today is jeans and a hoodie. Me and dcg are dressed the same. (color of sweatshirt and dark wash jeans. She came in and got all excited because we matched!

Jeans or denim capris. Short sleeve or long sleeve tees. Never dressy/fancy, but nice enough. Same thing I would wear to go to an appointment/store/class...

same here

@Blandino..... I AM one of those who has an issue with Yoga pants.

I HATE the trend and am praying it ends quickly....

I 100% understand how comfy they are but in my mind, they have a specific purpose and although some of the movements we make during the day do compare to yoga, it isn't.

To me, they are akin to p.j.'s and I would be mortified wearing p.j.'s in public or in the presence of anyone other than my kids and hubby.

To each his/her own though. That is just MY personal opinion.

I mostly wear jeans and a tee shirt. I do have a pair of gouchos (sp?) that I love. They look like dress pants but are stretchy and comfy. We had PJ day here a few weeks ago and half way through the day I had to change clothes. It felt to weird lol

Now that it's cooloing down, I wear my NY & Co yoga pants and matching jackets with a tee shirt. I love my velour ones, but have several in knit too. They are comfy and easy care.

I also wear jeans and knit tops with sweaters too. I always want to look nice, but don't want my expensive clothes stained or ruined, so I shop for tops on sale. If I find something I like, I usually buy it in several colors!

In the summer, I wear skorts, capris or shorts with tank tops or a sundress. Once again, it's all about comfort, but looking nice!

I seldom get through a day without paint or spit up on me! I never wear anything that has become faded or stained, so I'm constantly replacing my tops and black knit yoga pants!

denim with pockets for my cell phone, shorts in summer, pants in winter. t-shirts in summer, long sleeves in winter. Nothing too nice, nothing I LOVE, nothing with dangly sleeves, or that is too showy in the chest. Nothing that needs special washing care. Today it is jeans, Halloween t-shirt topped with a somewhat nice sweater jacket/cardigan.

Jeans and a uniform shirt. We have a dress code (center). No holes in our pants, no hoods, etc.

Yoga pants and a fitted t-shirt. Slipper socks or flip flops. Occasionally jeans but I find them uncomfortable since I am up and down off the floor all day.

Either yoga pants or jeans and a tshirt, a hoodie depending on weather. Today it's jeans, a fitted tshirt and a hoodie, yesterday was yoga pants and a fitted tshirt.

I am "plus size"...the thought of yoga pants scares me.

But I found some nice looking knit bootcut pants that I really like. I have a pair in black and a pair in dark grey. They look like nice and they're super comfy. I usually wear them with a tunic length top, or a cami and cardigan. Well, now that it's getting cooler, anyway.

I do capris, also, but the bootcut pants are way more comfortable.

I also love wearing skirts, so I have a few casual skirts I don't mind wearing for painting in digging in the dirt.

I have only been wearing yoga pants for the past couple weeks now because my jeans aren't fitting me anymore right now

Usually it's jeans or yoga pants and a t-shirt (lately with a hoodie in the morning too since it has ben so cold).

I wear yoga pants and tank tops all the time. I am very upfront with parents and say that it will probably look like I'm always in pajamas. For me, it's a matter of comfort and being able to move easier. I have lower back problems and my surgeon said that jeans are one of the worst things to wear for problems like that. I do wear jeans out in public just not for 10+ hours a day while trying to chase kids around.

This is what I wear over my sweats and t-shirt. I never wear any of my good clothing unless we're going out on a field trip, and that's still limited to switching out my sweats for jeans.
