SHOP THE LOOK SUNDAY… how to wear boho trends

This week’s shop the look Sunday is all about showing you hot to wear boho trends in a modern and practical way.  Over the week I covered tie dye and harem pants which references the 60′s era hippie  but in a totally modern way.  The key to how to wear boho trends is to not to go all in with the hippie references and pair the pieces with more structured, feminine and simple options.  Taking these bohemian trends and translating them from desk to date and from the park to brunch means making them wearable.  Never go head to toe boho as this can look costume-y and dated always opt for clean lines and find a balance in your overall look.  Tone down the hippie with feminine, modern even a bit of edge or glam in order to keep the look contemporary and current.  I’ve also included some suggestions for how to wear boho trends from desk to date and the park to brunch where everything in the look costs less than $100.  Dressing well is easy – keeping a look chic and on budget can be a challenge.  Check out some of my suggestions and having (guilt-free) fun shopping this Sunday!

how to look great with out breaking the bank.

Life is expensive but your wardrobe doesn’t have to be with my bi-monthly under $100 style deals.  Everyone has different definitions for what it means to splurge and what constitutes a deal but nobody can deny a great fashion find that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.  Style deals are all about great clothes and accessories that are less than $100 but will have you looking like a million.  Just because we’re on a budget doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice our appearance.  Now, more than ever, retailers are meeting our demands for trend driven fashion that looks expensive without the break the budget price tags.  High end designers from Isabel Marant to Peter Pilotto are teaming up with store like H&M and Target to create capsule collections that will give you their fashion sensibility for attainable price points.  Most recently, Peter Som has teamed up with Kohls  (Which actually launched yesterday, April 10th) to once again make high fashion accessible.  PS – style tip – don’t be afraid to shop in the junior departments – especially if you’re petit – there are often great finds for a fraction of the price!  So, check out the style deals I have found for you this week and enjoy some guilt free shopping!

MOMMA LOVES… harem pants (that’s right -harem pants)

BIML2117

Max and I rocking out harem pants – me in Free People and him in Nununu

BIML2080

Relaxed, comfortable and stylish – these aren’t MC Hammer’s pants.

BIML2123

Although they are MG HAMMERson’s pants (Max Gerald)…

BIML2165

Max and I having a snuggle…

You might think I’m talking crazy but I have totally jumped on the harem pants band wagon.  At first I bought them for my son thinking how cute they were – a little drop crotch gave his droopy diaper butt a bit of style but then I kept on seeing them…  I started styling them in my head…. And then I bought them.  Harem pants are a fantastic alternative to skinny jeans – casual and relaxed yet easy to dress up.  Now, I’m not talking about the old Hammer pants of yore with a crotch below the knee – I’m saying a classy slouchy harem pant that is the perfect partner to your favorite tee and flats for a trip to the park which can just as easily pair with a camisole and some fabulous heels for a night out (throw on a blazer and you’re ready for the office)!   Ultimately, these pants are incredibly comfortable but the silhouette gives it enough of something special to make a stylish statement.  I still love harem pants on my little guy cute and easy to get on and off and now I love them for me too!  Check out some of my favorites that you’ll want to wear all spring!

MOMMA LOVES… tie dyed clothes for a modern boho look

BIML2028

Spring has sprung and the rose garden is in bloom – time to break out some color and some boho inspired style.

BIML1987

Whether tonal or contrasting colors tie dye brings a pop of freshness and light to your look…

Spring is here and summer is just around the corner which means its time to put a bit of vibrance back into your wardrobe and a great way to do this is with some beautiful tie dyed clothes.  Music festival time is upon us, and while I have no desire to go out into the desert to check out cool music and use port potties in the baking sun – I do love some of the boho chic fashion…  Some of you may be thinking that sounds a bit 80′s/early 90′s but the trend is a little bit ombre a little bit tie dye and far more boho than hippie.  There’s a freshness to these tie dyed clothes that gives a very relaxed yet stylish look that allows you to just throw it on and you are effortlessly chic.  Whether its a maxi dress or slouchy tee a wash of color into your look gives it just the pop of spring time you need.  Always pretty, tie dyed clothes will always give you that vacation feel which is still wearable for your every day life.  Check out some of my favorite tie dyed clothes to get your excited for spring time, sandals and sunshine!

MOMMA KNOWS… April showers means rain coats and boots

rain coats and boots

Rain rain…

rain coats and boots

go away…

BIML1808 - Version 2

don’t come back…

BIML1782 - Version 2

eh, who am I kidding we live in LA!

Its been a frigid winter for much of the country – but Spring is upon us and as the weather warms up snow will be rain (at least for a little while) and its time for rain coats and boots!  I’m talking waterproof trench coats and wells to keep us and our little ones dry but not being afraid to dance in the rain.  There is nothing my little ones loves more than jumping  in puddles… which is sad considering we live in LA and it’s rained twice in the last year…  But he seeks out a little divot in the driveway where water collects from the sprinkler and he goes for it every day.  So, for all those ladies that are getting ready for April showers (on a bright note – they do bring May flowers!) I wanted to share some super chic rain coats and boots that actually make me long for the days we were living in London (and rain coats and boots were part of my daily uniform).  So, if you’re going to get wet, you may as well look great!  And for the little ones – rain coats and boots are not only adorable but can also protect there lovely clothes from getting drenched and ensure they can splash in as many puddles without fear of catching cold.  Check out some of my favorite rain coats and boots to get you through April and whenever a little rain may come.

MOMMA LOVES… ruffles for women and their mini-me’s

BIML1672

Ruffles for me… ruffles for him…

BIML1689

Sorry, I couldn’t resist the obvious “Ruffles” reference picture… Always chic and feminine for the ladies and yummy too!

Believe it or not – I love ruffles.  I am not a girly girl dresser – you will most certainly see me in jeans about 50 times more than you will see me in a dress, but a little flourish I can’t resist.  Ruffles often insinuate sweetness – which they can be (and there is nothing wrong with that – especially with little girl clothes) – but in actual fact there is so much more to ruffles.  They can be modern, architectural, bohemian, ironic and, of course, feminine.  A ruffled mini with a distressed tee and some great ankle boots or a pair of skinny jeans with a ruffled top give that perfect effortlessly elegant look.  I describe my personal style as classic with a twist – sugar and spice – and a great piece with some well placed ruffles can be the perfect item to give your look that extra something it needs.  Its a fun, flirty look that can be dressed up for all those summer time weddings we have to look forward to or dressed down for a casual afternoon at the park….  For our little ones, nothing could be cuter than ruffles – dresses bloomers, skirts (tutus!) and tops all look that much daintier with a little flourish (plus easter is coming up -ruffles are perfect for your little lady).  Check out some of my favorite ruffles for us and the little ladies (sorry Max – not much of this for little boys – makes me wish you had a sister though)!

I love neon clothes.  This may sound crazy from someone who’s daily uniform usually consists of black, white and grey – but I am a HUGE fan of a pop of unexpected brights.  Not just some smattering of a bland color – but a committed, eye catching highlighter hue.  Neon clothes just capture my attention and they’re so bright they actually shine a bit of light into our lives and can put a smile on my face.  Whenever I’m wearing a fluorescent piece I always get compliments – its something different, unexpected and fun.  It could just be something as subtle as a hot pink tee paired with a blazer and jeans or something a bit more adventurous (but not too serious) like a chartreuse fit and flare dress… Neon clothes give your skin a warm glow and adds a bit more color into the world – added bonus you and your little ones have it that much easier keeping an eye on each other at the playgrounds!  Check out some of my top neon clothes picks to get you out of your drab winter wardrobe rut!
