Classic Mom Style for the Weekend Warrior in you: this cozy, cable knit sweater is a style that will last for years and the red-orange shade makes it a modern edition, perfect for early fall. High-waisted, slightly distressed denim adds comfort, and neutral accessories help to make the look polished for that brunch-date or in-law dinner.
I have been post-baby, post-pregnancy long enough now that I feel comfortable doing a full closet clean-out, and boy did I need to do one. I have several classic, solid-colored, shift dresses that I purchased during my first job out-of-college. They are quality dresses that fit well and can be worn to work, a wedding, a funeral and everything in between. But I found myself not wearing them because my current office environment is a little more casual, a little less business. I decided that if I am going to keep items like this in my closet, I need to wear them. Here is a great and easy way to make a classic shift dress more casual and less business, using things you probably already have in your wardrobe.
Jean jacket + Booties = Perfect for Fall.
Booties are everywhere in all seasons it seems, but being six feet tall has put me on the hunt for a versatile pair that is flat and can be worn in a casual setting but also in a relaxed business casual/office setting. These Rocket Dog Booties are the perfect compromise and are budget friendly to boot (punny, Heather). And you can't go wrong with a chambray shirt dress or my favorite light as a feather, leather earrings from mom-entrepreneur: Nickel and Suede.
Everyday I find myself trying to look cute and put together without being uncomfortable or feeling too fussy. This look would be great for a family day out or even a trip to the park! Plenty of room for snacks in the backpack and pockets for all the little things your mini-me wants to bring along.
