Back to Basics



If you don't know it, I'm a mom.  But before I was a mom I was a single working woman, married without children, pregnant (with twins), a stay-at-home mom, and now a mom back to work + a fashion blogger (you can read more about my story HERE).  What does all that mean?  I've probably been in almost any fashionable situation you're in.

I recently had a reader email me about getting back her wardrobe mojo.  She had been a stay-at-home-mom for 15 years and was getting back into the workforce.  I'll admit, after the nuggets were born, it was sweatpants and sneakers (or slippers) for about a year.  It was all I could manage between all the diapers, bottles, and pacies.  After I felt more like myself, I vowed not to lose myself or my love of fashion.  But it can be overwhelming, especially if you're not a shopper or particularly like fashion.

My look today?  Classic style pieces to build your wardrobe.  Especially if you're starting from scratch.  Think dark denim (style can vary depending on body type), blazers, well made tees, basic black handbags and shoes, and go-to accessories.  You can add pops of color with your lip color or scarves.  Stick with neutral colors in the beginning and add color when your classic pieces are set.  Need more help?  Utilize a stylist, Nordstrom and J.Crew offer free services!

Start today and get back your wardrobe mojo.  I plan to share more tips over the next few months so I hope you'll come back, ask questions, and be inspired.
