written by Karly Wood

There are many things to love about having a daughter, but one of our faves is being able to re-live our hair accessory glory days! Headbands, snap clips and huge bows, oh my! If you’re in the market for some fresh and fancy hair accessories, then you need to check out the blinged-out snap clips made from leather and glitter that are super popular right now. We’ve rounded up our fave shops on Etsy so you can shop small and find adorable clips at the same time.

1. Ryan and Wren

If you’re looking for stylish and classy clips, then Ryan and Wren is your shop. The creators specialize in leather and glitter snap clips, and if you’re lucky, some seasonal velvet options! The narrow focus allows them to make super high-quality clips in gorgeous matte and metallic leathers, in addition to super sparkly glitter. You can choose from regular and extra long sizes (ahem, would totally work for mom hair) and they have a great bundle where you can pick 5 clips for $20. Normally, they run $5 a piece ($5.50 for extra long sizes) so it’s buy 4 get one free!

2. Alice and Josie

Alice and Josie is a full service hair accessory shop, where their snap clips are just one of tons of options. They craft headbands, lace, suede and seasonal bows and our fave––snap clips! The options at Alice and Josie come in at just $3 a clip, which is big savings when you add them up. We also love that they offer more than just solid leather choices, like gold cork, stripes and basket weaved colors. Even better? The shop curates their own holiday collections where you can snag 5 for $12.50 and excuse us while we add tons of clips to our shopping cart.

3. Kaylee Bands

Looking for snap clips that are fun and only $1––then shop Kaylee Bands’ Etsy shop! While snap clips aren’t the main focus of this account, the creator offers tons of unique patterns you can’t find anywhere else (oh, hello there coffee-themed clips!). Many of her clips are marked down to just $.50 each and with kids who tend to lose hair accessories fast, this deal can’t be beat.

4. Bugga Bee Bows

When you shop the choice from Bugga Bee Bows, you’re getting vegan leather clips! Coming in tons of beautiful colors, with glitter options as well, the clips from this shop measure 1.5″x2″ which means a chunkier clip then the ones we’ve featured so far. A 3-pack of these curated sets is only $10!

5. The Floral Pumpkin

It’s actually pretty difficult to find velvet snap clips on Etsy, but we love the options at The Floral Pumpkin. Since velvet tends to be a warm fabric, most of the clips seem to be made for fall and winter months, with coordinating color palettes. Expect to find lots of earth tones and pretty burgundies when shopping for your velvet clips!

6. A Little Delight

One word: Disney. A Little Delight is one of the only shops on Etsy that has quality snap clips with adorable Mickey and Minnie prints in glitter! The duos only run $6 for a set of 2––and you can’t go to Disneyland without them!

Maternity Style: Trends, Tips & Money-Saving Tricks For Every Trimester

by Guest Post
written by Guest Post

From the moment you see that pink plus sign, you become obsessed with your belly and examine it carefully in the mirror each morning… don’t worry, we all do it! But as the days pass, your excitement is tinged with anxiety and you worry that you will start showing too early or that you will look fat or clumsy, you’re not alone in this either. You’re a gorgeous pregnant woman; it’s time to own it!

What To Wear And When To Wear It

You’re pregnant––not camping outdoors, so lose that tent! Modern maternity wear is as chic as it is comfortable and moms to be are now spoilt for choice. Of course this can make maternity shopping quite confusing so here are some ideas to help you get started.

Source: Pink Blush Maternity

First Trimester

The first trimester is generally the “secret” phase of pregnancy where you’re not yet ready to share the news with the world at large. Some women develop that unmistakable bump early on, which makes it a lot tougher to keep the secret under wraps. Speaking of wraps, wraparounds work wonders to hide an itty bitty baby bump!

When shopping for maternity clothes to hide your bump, look for outfits that have ruching, as this creates an illusion of a smaller waist. When it comes to jeans, you want to go with mid waist ones because high waist jeans accentuate your belly, while low rise jeans will make your tummy pooch out. For an evening out, pair a floral print blouse with a draped cardigan, as the print distracts from your baby bump while the cardigan provides a little extra mid-section camouflage.

Second Trimester

The second trimester is the sweet spot where your nausea has disappeared and all that extra estrogen gives you an honest-to-goodness natural glow. Your motto should be, “if you’ve got it, flaunt it!”

High waist pencil skirts are a comfortable yet elegant choice for work but switch to a frame sweater with party pants or a Caftan for your evening out with friends. Swap your first trimester jeans for maternity denims that you can continue to use even in your third trimester. Another must-have in any preggers wardrobe is an empire waist dress, which is super flattering during pregnancy (think Queen Beyonce’s earthy goddess dress last year). You probably won’t want to go shopping in your third trimester, so invest in extra-long tanks and tees to stay comfortable during the final lap of your journey.

Third Trimester

The third trimester is when belts and sashes come into their own. You can glam up your old belts with chiffon flowers and satin rosettes or use ribbon and lace to make your own sashes. Wear a thin belt on dresses to accentuate your curves, but wear it beneath your hips if you’re wearing a long top – this will prevent that dreaded ‘parachute’ look. Maxi dresses and roomy tunics are adorable and can be paired with maternity jeans or leggings in the winter or a pair of chic shorts during the summer.

By this point in your pregnancy, just getting out of bed is exhausting, so date nights are ancient history, but it’s important to make the most of the time you have with DH – just the two of you. Take a page from Miranda Kerr’s book, and flaunt your baby bump in a figure-hugging tank dress – the perfect attire for a romantic night out.

Maternity Shopping: How to Nail it on the First Try

1. Raid your wardrobe before you start shopping

You probably think that you need a whole new wardrobe but that’s far from true. Your blousy shirts, wrap-style tops, tunics, and fold-down waistbands are sufficient for your first trimester and maybe even part of your second. Before you start your shopping spree, go through your existing wardrobe and pack up all the clothes that you will not be able to use in the coming months. It’s always better to get these clothes out of sight so that you don’t get frustrated later on when you’re digging through your wardrobe for stuff that fits.

2. Borrow or Rent

Sisters and friends can be a goldmine for maternity outfits. Most women buy plenty of maternity clothes, which they pack away after their delivery. So, if you are offered maternity wear, don’t think twice before you take them up on their offer. If you’re a fashion forward mama and don’t want to spend money on clothes you may only wear a few times, you may want to consider renting. Companies like Le Tote, La Belle Bump, and Rent The Runway offer great monthly or one time deals for special events that keep you stylish but also prevent your closet from being bogged down with maternity clothes.

3. Don’t Fall for Sales Gimmicks

Many maternity stores have “buy two get one free” offers and similar deals to induce people to buy more than they actually require. Before you make these purchases, ask yourself if you really need three or if you can make do with one. Basics like undershirts and T-shirts are usually a good buy, especially if you can get some nursing or post-pregnancy use out of them––just shop wisely!

4. Get Crafty

Instead of shelling out big bucks for maternity clothes, you can also make your own. There are plenty of videos and instructables that can help you turn your regular clothes into maternity outfits. For instance, you can simply cut out the zipper area of a comfortable pair of jeans and replace it with a large piece of stretchy fabric. You will have a pair of jeans that are identical to the ones sold in stores for a fraction of the cost. Of course, this option isn’t for everyone, but you’d be surprised how easy it is to convert some super comfy regular clothes into the perfect maternity pieces. Check out Pinterest for some awesome ideas!

5. Shop Smart

When you’re out maternity shopping, don’t forget to pick up comfortable kicks. Your feet have to bear the brunt of the additional weight, so don’t wait until your third trimester to go shoe shopping. Swap out your pumps and wedges for ballet flats and sketchers right away, your feet will thank you. The most important thing to keep in mind while shopping for maternity stuff is that comfort is a priority but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your personal style. Shopping smart means keeping your own preferences in mind, and buying higher quality pieces that will last for future pregnancies if this is your first baby.

There are always ways to cut costs and stay on budget when it comes to maternity shopping. If you’re stuck on where to get started, check out What to Expect where you’ll find plenty of articles that address shopping for maternity clothes, along with links to some great deals!

All the 2018 Fall Styles You Need This Season

by Karly Wood
written by Karly Wood

While most moms don’t have the time or luxury to overhaul their wardrobe with the change of the seasons, it’s completely possible to incorporate the latest fall fashions with just a few pieces. This year, the 2018 fall styles are super mom-friendly, with bright colors, comfy fabrics and looser fitting garments. Get ready to embrace the fall with this trends!

https://www.instagram.com/p/BmgrRC6H2GC/

1. Paper Bag Pants

Paper bag pants sound a lot worse than they really are. When you pick up a pair, you’re actually snagging an elegant take on trousers. This style has a gathered or “scrunchy” waist that is reminiscent of a paper bag, but is paired with a bow or ribbon that ties. They are great for a night out, and come in tons of materials. Did we mention they look SO comfortable?

 

https://www.instagram.com/p/BqHuZzyFrCP/

2. Belt Bags

A belt bag is pretty much what is sounds like: a bag worn like a belt. And no, it’s not the same as a fanny pack! Belt bags can actually be worn over the shoulder or a variety of ways that don’t involve your waist, but it’s a super stylish purse that surpasses its fanny pack predecessor. Choose from leather, velvet or more luxurious options––there’s no wrong way to own a belt bag. And for moms who never have enough hands, this is a go-to accessory this year!

 

https://www.instagram.com/p/BqFfM7klZ3i/

3. Sock Boots

The sock boot is the perfect combo of a bootie and mid-calf boot! It has a higher shaft that’s usually made with softer material, hence the name “sock boot” that is uber comfortable and perfect for busy moms. There is no limit to the color and styles, with some manufactured to actually look like an athletic sock.

 

https://www.instagram.com/p/BqGvIcPHI88/

4. Teddy Bear Jackets

Finally, a jacket that is just like wearing your fave blanket! The teddy bear jacket gets its name because it basically reminds of us our fave bear friend––warm, cozy and a neutral brown color that pretty much goes with everything.

 

https://www.instagram.com/p/BqFPt95FcUF/

5. Plaid

Plaid is perfectly fit for fall. Whether you’re rocking a flannel or dressing up an outfit with a gorgeous coat, this pattern gives all the fall feels. With endless colors and plaid patterns, there’s something out there for everyone.

 

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp9xx5TAlSc/

6. Colorful Tights

Here’s your chance to whip out those marigold tights! Fall is the perfect time to dress up your outfit with fun, colorful tights that add a pop of color to an otherwise earth-toned outfit, and to keep warm, too!

 

https://www.instagram.com/p/6GDE1YA5gP/

7. Ankle Grazing Skirts

You don’t need to pick between braving the weather and fashion when it comes to wearing a skirt this fall. Ankle grazing skirts are very on trend, offering a nice break from wearing pants, but also providing some weather protection. Because they’re ankle length, they also pair great with flats or booties. Win win!

6 Personal Stylist Secrets For Getting A Functional And Stylish Wardrobe

by Guest Post
written by Guest Post

A legend exists that somewhere there is a woman who wakes up every morning and knows exactly what to wear. Is it you? Not quite? I know, I have been there too.

It all began with frustration

I am a fashionista and former shopaholic who had an overflowing closet and always ‘nothing to wear’. About a year and a half ago, I became so frustrated with the whole situation. I kept asking myself, “What is wrong with me?” Then I decided enough was enough and I banned shopping completely until I found an answer.

I spent hours researching; reading recommendations, guidelines and others’ experiences. Eventually, I enrolled in a course for personal stylists. And it was the best thing I have ever done! Not only did I find answers to my questions and filled in the gaps, but I also changed my career completely to become a personal stylist and an image consultant!

This post will help you to create a list actions to take to build the most functional and stylish wardrobe you have ever owned. And the advice is suitable for every woman – whether you are a stay-at-home-mom, working mom, mom who is looking to resume her career after staying home with the kids, a businesswoman, freelancer, traveler, or retired; whether you want to downsize your closet or just make it more versatile and rational, take the guesswork out of dressing and shopping, and eliminate this common ‘nothing to wear’ problem.

stylish wardrobe

1. Know Your Colors and Season

When I start working with a client, the VERY FIRST thing I do is define her seasonal color type – Spring, Summer, Autumn, or Winter.

If you are not familiar with this concept, in short, we all have natural colors in our bodies. When we wear clothes, the colors interfere with our body colors. You will be surprised how quickly the right color can make your skin fresher and smoother, your eyes light up, and you look and feel younger and rejuvenated. The ‘wrong’ colors can have the exact opposite effect.

Look at the pictures above and notice how pale and tired the model’s skin is in first three pictures – left to right. And how smooth and even it is in the fourth one, when she is wearing ‘her’ colors. Take your time to learn what colors look best on you.

And here is one personal stylist’s secret: regardless of your color type, you can always use the color of your eyes in your clothes. This color will always look great on you, guaranteed.

2. Learn How to Use Colors in Outfits

Take your time and learn the rules on how to mix and match the colors in an outfit with confidence. Yes, you read it right. Rules. You don’t need to have artistic talent or an eye for colors. All successful color combinations are created by following rules!

3. Dress your shape

Once you know what colors make you beautiful, the next step is to learn your figure type and the right way to dress it. The ideal, or balanced, shape is considered to be a neat hourglass. And it doesn’t mean you have to have size 0 to 4. It can be any size. What it means is this type of figure has the same width shoulders and hips, and a well-defined waist. Don’t worry if this isn’t you; this type of figure is pretty rare.

Other shapes like pear, inverted triangle, lean column, rectangle, full hourglass, and oval can be dressed in a way to make the figure look balanced through clothes and colors. Figure out your shape, learn everything about it, what looks great on it, and what doesn’t.

Another benefit you gain from knowing your colors and shape, is that your shopping will become four times easier, as you will now scan the garments in the store for color and then have an idea of whether it will look great on you before even heading to the fitting room.

4. Find a personal style

Do you know your/have a personal style? Can you describe it? Many women struggle with finding their personal style. When I was at the beginning of this fashion journey, I read dozens of articles on how to find personal style. Most of them left me more confused than when I started. One piece of advice I came across in pretty much every post was useless and maybe even harmful: go to Pinterest or Instagram and find outfits that you like, and try to copy them. Or think what celebrity style inspires you the most and dress same way.

When we look at someone’s picture, we are not only looking at a unique person with their own personality, body shape, color type, and lifestyle, we also looking at the picture vibe in general. Even if you try to duplicate an entire outfit, there is no guarantee it will look as great on you, it simply might not match your features, because YOU are DIFFERENT!

Personal style is not something artificially chosen. It is built around YOU: your personality, your lifestyle, your hobbies, your color type, and your shape. It might change over your lifetime as YOU change.

Learn about styles and how to pull clothes into styles. Each style has its distinctive elements. For example, nautical style is made of mostly white and navy colors plus little bit of red and nautical stripes. What about safari style? Choose beige, khaki, and white colors with army uniform elements – patched pockets, belts, hats. A romantic style will have flowing fabrics, floral patterns, ruffles, etc.

Any woman can have at least three different fashion styles that all go into making up her PERSONAL style.

stylish wardrobe

5. Build your wardrobe

After you learn those three basics, you will be able to purge your closet effectively to remove anything that doesn’t make you feel gorgeous. When purging and then buying replacement garments, keep these two rules in mind to help you make your closet functional:

1. Michael Khors’ 70/30 rule:

“If 70% of your wardrobe is meat and potatoes aka basics, the other 30% is the dessert—full-on sparkle and shine, indulgent glamour.” – M.K.

Up to 70% of your garments should be core items – classy, timeless pieces with few details and substantial colors. Those items will be very different for each particular person. So, don’t fall into the ‘everyone must have this and that’ trap. The other 30% of your wardrobe are garments with interesting details, colors, accessories, trendy pieces. You can put outfits together using just core items or mix and match them with accent/trendy garments

2. 4 per 1 rule

When building your wardrobe, pay attention to this top/bottom ratio. You should have at least 4 times more tops than bottoms. Here is why: a different top gives you the impression of a new outfit. The bottom doesn’t. A rule of thumb – tops should differ in these three elements: color, details, texture. If you have the same top in four colors, it only counts as one. Just because it is a different color, doesn’t mean it is a different outfit.

6. Accessorize

Accessories are as important as clothes. If not more so. Beautiful, eye-catching earrings can dress up the most plain t-shirt. So, when shopping for accessories, think of them as an investment!

A Final Note

Dressing well and building a rational closet doesn’t require any special talent. Dressing well is a science. It takes a little bit of time to learn, but once you learn, you can use this knowledge forever. Fashion changes constantly, but your style stays with you.

1. Ray-Ban Photochromic Aviator Sunglasses

You can never go wrong with a pair of aviators and that’s especially true when they come in a trendy color like orange.

Designer melt is regarded as a fashion forward brand that mimics street fashion and bold statements. These cat eye shades pack all of that and a whole lot more. Orange-colored lenses are surrounded by a bold, which orange plastic frame that is sturdy and goes perfectly with all that style you’re wrangling in.

3. Classic Wayfarer

If you aren’t sure about this whole orange sunglass thing, then just go cheap with a pair of these knockoffs from Amazon. They look so close to the Ray-Ban originals, but come in at  $6.50. They’re perfect for those of us who tend to lose our sunnies, step or sit on them, have kids who like to break them or just get over styles quickly.

4. Rose Gold & Orange Round Sunglasses

John Lennon would gladly sport these round shades in a bright orange so you know you’re on trend when you buy these frames that are less than $15. Rose gold frames make these all the more dazzling, and the fact that they offer UV400 protection is just icing on the cake.

5. Mono Block Rimless Color Tone Lens Sunglasses

You go ALL in when you wear these rimless orange sunnies. Made from a single piece of translucent material, these all-lens, block cut sunglasses are truly unique. While they’re technically listed as “sunglasses” they actually don’t offer any UV protection and are more intended for topping off that outfit then they are for shading your eyes against the sun.

Our Top Picks for 2018 Summer Swimsuits

by Karly Wood
written by Karly Wood

Whether you love hitting the water with the kiddos or prefer hanging out in the shade all covered up, summer is here! Even the most anti-water mamas have to strap on the suit to be prepared for water parks, splash pads, pools, lakes and the beach because kids always end up beckoning us in for one reason or the other. This year has tons of fun styles and we are loving all the one-pieces! Keep reading for some stylish summer swimsuits ––there’s something for everyone!

1. Off the Shoulder- $60

Show off a little shoulder in this otherwise modest one-piece suit. The ruffles and stripes instantly dress up this full coverage suit, and while it may require some attention when jumping into the pool (gotta make sure the ladies stay in there!), it’s a cuter, fresher take on a regular one-piece.

2. One-Pieces

You don’t need a trend to tell you that one-piece swimsuits are ok to wear, but it doesn’t hurt that when they are there are so many more to choose from! Solids, stripes and prints galore––you can’t go wrong with a classy one-piece. Take your pick of neckline and splurge on something with back detail. We love this suit from The Pink Desert that is offers full coverage with a whimsical design. Nothing boring here!

3. Plunging Necklines

All you brave moms out there will be happy to know that plunging neckline swimsuits are majorly trending this year. You could buy a $150 suit from Anthropologie with a crochet trim, or you can just hit up Target and get the same thing for $40. You’ll get the same sexy look, for a fraction of the cost. We love the suit pictured above because of the florals, but also the reinforced tie in the middle of the bust to keep things interesting, but tied up nicely.

4. Gingham- $6 top, $10 bottom

If you’ve always enjoyed the iconic summer print of gingham then you’ll love that it’s a trending style this summer. Whether you love the tiny checked version or this oversized print from Asos, you’ll be rocking that picnic vibe all summer with one of these suits.

5. Florals- $39

Forget plain, solid suits this year- go big with florals! A smaller print like the one featured above provides a bold and colorful appeal, without looking gaudy. The ruffled shoulders give this suit a little more character and you can’t beat that $40 price tag.

6. Stripes

We’ve never met a striped print we didn’t like and that includes this large striped bikini set with a tie bottom. Horizontal, vertical or color blocked, there’s a stripe out there for everyone!

I’m not going to lie–– I don’t know how I feel about this new “athletic jumpsuit” trend. As someone who’s on the shorter side, I just don’t see how donning a one piece athletic pantsuit is good for anyone’s eyes, but maybe that’s just me. If you’re in the market for some new athletic wear, maybe a jumpsuit is for you! Check out some popular styles below.

written by Karly Wood

Moms don’t always have a ton of time for a full face of makeup, but most of us can whip on a few coats of mascara to help us feel a little pulled together before heading out the door. As it turns out, we could be doing it all wrong. Keep reading for some super easy mascara tips to get the best lashes.

1. Use a Toothbrush To Remove Clumps

Oh the many uses of a toothbrush: brushing teeth, cleaning soiled car seats and now, removing clumps from your mascara! You don’t need to try and pick out said clumps with your nails anymore (super messy and you end up taking off all the mascara anyways) if you use a clean toothbrush to gently brush them off. BAM!

2. Use Baby Powder for Fuller Lashes

If volumizing mascara only gives you major, clumpy lashes than try dusting some baby powder on in between coats. Don’t put on too much or you’ll have a hard time covering up all that white powder with mascara, but a little should do the trick and give you plump, but natural looking lashes.

3. Use Visine to Thin Out Thickened Mascara

Beauty experts say you should always toss old mascara after 3 months, but I bet most of us hold on to it longer than that. If that’s you, and yours has gotten a bit clumpy, add a few drops of Visine to help thin out your mascara. It will also keep it from drying out if you’re trying to use up that last little bit before opening a new tube.

4. Wipe off Excess Mascara Before Applying

Many times, more mascara than we need comes out on the wand. Instead of trying to work with a brush coated in too much product, wipe some off on a tissue to get a more even application that has fewer clumps.
