partridge familyBecause we are such TV junkies, we are happy to present the second in three-part series on our favorite TV moms through the ages, and the fab

1970s: Shirley Partridge

In this, the decade of the Feminist mom, it was hard to pick a favorite. While we loved Maude and Ann Romano and Edith Bunker, when it comes to fashion we have to go with Shirley Partridge. Come on, she was a band mom! She rocked the pantsuit. And she had that super cool bus which we imagine she’d still be driving, minivans be damned.

1980s: Claire Huxtable
By
the mid-80s, it was clear that Claire Huxtable of The Cosby Show was
America’s mom. She managed to raise all those kids, hold down a job as a
successful attorney, and still put up with her husband’s sweaters. Plus?
Her accessories are so very back in right now. Honorable mention to
Murphy Brown, Elyse Keaton, and of course, Peg Bundy.
