Mom Style

I often get asked for my mom wardrobe essentials – the tried and true items that I can wear to chase around our son and dog and still feel presentable for a play date, playground run-in, or lunch meeting. Even though I love shopping, I work in fashion and live for pretty dresses, you might be surprised to know that I actually don’t have that many clothes in my closet. I try to invest in quality basics that I can wear over and over again, especially now that I’m a mom. Frankly, I just don’t have time to think about what I’m going to wear and I need pieces that are versatile, comfy and yet look put-together. These are the wardrobe staples that as a mom I rely on and wear almost every day.

I wanted these overalls the minute I saw them even though they’re from one of my favorite maternity lines, Hatch Collection, I knew they would fit because the line actually designs clothes you can wear at all stages — not pregs, pregnant, and post-partum. As anyone who has had a baby knows, your body changes so much during pregnancy and then post, and having high-quality clothes that you actually love that are comfortable and chic is so hard to find.

By now you guys know I love me a big cozy sweater, and they’re basically all I live in during the winter. Which is why this sweater dress has become one of my favorite pieces.
