Mama As Muse – Dissecting NYFW From the Safety of the Suburbs (Part 1)
This is the time of year when I live vicariously through the Internet and imagine myself in the tents in New York, skinny latte in one hand, Moleskine notebook in the other, taking in the trends-to-be from atop the perch of my 5-inch power heels.
But then reality brings me back down to flats and I realize that most of the fab finds livestreaming via Style.com won’t work for my harried working mama lifestyle. Or won’t they?
I took a closer look at this year’s Spring 2012 collections and actually found some perfect picks for everything from drop-off to date night. They might be pricier than your usual Anthropologie uniform, but at the very least, they will inject a dose of inspiration into your Spring shopping.
Today, “Drop Off With a Dose of Lovely and No Lululemon”
J Crew - always nailing the nerdy chic look
Kelly Wearstler - lose the jacket for morning duty, pair with flip flops
Lacoste - a cape for chilly winter days in the carpool lane. Pair with beat up boyfriend jeans and flats.
Marc by Marc Jacobs - make it work with a simple cardigan and sandals
J Crew - simple, easy, perfect for the playground
Marc by Marc Jacobs - put some whimsy into your weekday. Pair with flip flops and a ponytail.
