MATERNITY MONDAY… stylish pregnancy goals

I am always so impressed with woman who pull of a stylish pregnancy. And I’m not talking about those celebrities who pay stylists, such as myself, to keep them looking chic and effortless throughout their 9 months. I’m talking about those women who inspire me with their stylish pregnancy – who give me the ideas for how to dress women in that perfect combination of fashionable, classy, comfort. Look, once you’re in the third trimester, loose the heals – it’s a noble effort, but I’ve been there – it’s miserable and nobody is going to judge you – in fact we would all feel more comfortable seeing you put those legs up for a bit. So the key to a stylish pregnancy is less about the fashion torture we might ordinarily inflict upon ourselves and just about giving into your inner glow and celebrating the bump. So check out my new favorite maternity options for a super stylish pregnancy.

MOMMA NEEDS… slide sandals

While summer is winding down slide sandals are still hot hot hot. While, I’ve never been a big fan of the Birkenstock look, it is, undoubtably a thing. Fortunately, these slide sandals aren’t strictly for the inner hippies – there are many reinventions of these comfy shoes to satisfy those of us who prefer a more modern, slick approach to footwear. All of that said, the truth is, these shoes are fantastic – they are perfect for being on your feet all day and now that they’re officially stylish they tick that box too! Check out my favorite slide sandals and get them while they’re hot and wear them till it’s cold!

MOMMA LOVES.. printed pants please

I do love a great pair of printed pants to pop my look whilst still feel effortlessly cool.

I am all about some printed pants to reinvigorate my look. I think a lot of people can bit a bit nervous about patterns – particularly on the bottom but they are such a great alternative to basic bottoms and easily styled with a simple solid top, tee, tank or sweater. These printed pants are a pop of the unexpected – they add a bit of whimsy to your look and are instantly a style stand out. Yes, they’re a bit wild but why not have a bit of fun with your style? Check out my favorite printed pants and add something new to your wardrobe that will certainly add life to your look!
