MOMMA WANTS… fabulous shoes

That’s right, my birthday is just a week away and as a consolation prize (a prize to console me about getting a year older) I’m hoping for some fabulous shoes to lift my spirits! Its not every day I turn 27 (wink wink – I’d also like to lose a decade for my birthday) and it’s good to want things – so I wanted to share with you some of the fabulous shoes that are new, fresh, and might one day be mine… These are the aspirational shoes – the, are these shoes or are they art? shoes. These are the fabulous shoes that people will be talking about around the water cooler tomorrow (well, if you work at Conde Nast anyway). Yes they’re insanely expensive and beyond impractical, but these are collectors items, these are show stoppers, these are the type of shoes that made me fall in love with fashion… Check out some of the amazingly fabulous shoes that would make Carrie Bradshaw sweat (and your kids might think they’re pretty cool too)!

They’re crazy and e and special and shoe lovers can’t help but be amazed…

MOMMA LOVES… heart prints – lets get ready for Valentines Day!

Valentines Day is once again upon us – it seems like the Christmas dust has only begun to settle and yet when I look around there are heart prints everywhere. A holiday based on expressing your love for one another can’t be the worst thing and, to be fair, I really love heart prints. I know I did a post a few months back on the love motif but I guess we could always use more love! Children’s clothes will always feature plenty of love messages and heart prints because our children are the ultimate symbol of love but make no mistake there are lots of options for us as well! Everything from jewelry to bags, shoes, tops and dresses feature the widely popular symbol of love and its will always be an iconic, wearable and feminine print. I know this week I have been heavily focused on prints – but it just seems that women are looking for a way to wear their heart on their sleeves (ha ha ha – I couldn’t help myself). But seriously, if what we wear can put a bit more love into the world why not celebrate it. Heart prints will always be a popular, feel good trend. Whether you’re looking for an understated heart shaped earring, or a sweater emblazoned with the L word there is something for everyone. Nowhere are there more adorable heart prints than in baby and kids clothes – so get them ready for Valentines Day and share the love for the upcoming holiday!

MOMMA LOVES… Orange crush – great orange options for us and them

As you may have noticed, I like orange. I always like a pop of color – but orange is so special because its a statement but it doesn’t have the girly-ness of pink or the look at me of red – its a unisex color with a bit of an edge. Its vibrant and modern and it just makes me smile. Its just great contrasting color to pair with shades of white, denim, or even color blocked with colors like pink and purple. I’m not talking about an orange overhaul – it might be a pop of orange print, and orange bag or just an orange lipstick… It brings light to the face because it has such warm undertones and I absolutely love dressing Max in orange. The beauty of orange is its also unisex – so when we were decorating his nursery and even when I’m shopping for his clothes I know orange will go a lot further (if we happened to ever have a girl). I also like it because its easy to keep an eye on Max when he’s wearing a bright pop of color. So, here it is – some of my favorite orange options for women and children!

MOMMA LOVES… shades of white accessories for us and them

Last week I did a post on shades of white clothing and I was SO amazed by what I saw I had to do a follow up post on all the amazing light colored accessories out there. There crisp and fresh and brand new! They are a must have for spring and give every look an elegant polish. It doesn’t matter what you put these white accessories with – color, black, more white – they will alway be the perfect final touch. The abundance of white that’s now coming into stock indicates a huge trend approaching. Most of the country has seen a lot of the white stuff due to the polar vortex and with spring approaching, get ready to see a lot more of it in our wardrobes! White accessories are always a risk so make sure to scotch guard and leather protect to help keep them looking fresh. Of course, I couldn’t forget our little ones – so there are plenty of white accessories to keep them looking their best… Until they find that mud puddle!

MOMMA LOVES… leopard print accessories

One of the most iconic prints of all time is the leopard print. Its feminine yet cool, its lady like yet bohemian and leopard print accessories can add that extra pop of style into even the most ordinary outfit. Adding a bag, shoe even a belt in this animal print adds an extra polish that can turn your walk in the park jeans and t-shirt into brunch with the ladies. It is as wearable for the office as it is for a night out on the town. The leopard print never goes out of style and is always a great investment as its the easiest way to add a splash of something special to your overall look. For those who might feel intimidated by the look – leopard print accessories are the easiest way to wear it! Your go-to little black dress or jeans and a t-shirt look instantly transform into an effortlessly stylish look with a shoe or bag in this fabulous print. Check out some of my favorite leopard print accessories for us and our little ones – and I may have thrown in some extra accessories for the little ones that they can’t really wear but they’ll enjoy all the same!
