Spring time will be here soon and we should all prepare for it… somewhat fashionably. The funny thing is that Valentines Day seems to kick off Spring out of no where. With trends and seasons changing keeping your own Mom style simple may seem hard.

We have all gone through the “frumpy phase” in Motherhood at one point in time. Not knowing what to buy or how to dress may be a contributor towards that problem as well. It sure was one for myself. My lack of wardrobe additions started after I stopped losing weight after childbirth.

Not knowing what to choose from may seem frustrating. Think of it as a Spring purge or Spring cleaning. That is why I created these simple tips to follow when shopping for Spring.

Here are 3 fool-proof tips to follow when looking for a new Spring Look:

  1. Try universal items that can be worn in Winter/ Spring or Fall/ Summer is a good place to start. I have always been known to be a plain Jane… meaning I wear plain or graphic tees year round!
  2. Letting go of chunky sweaters, and double layers can help transition into seasons.
  3. Some trends seem to squeeze their way in more than others for a season. Here are a couple to look out for this season: belle sleeves and slip on sneakers. Both are Mom friendly and in style. Another is 80’s wear, so fun!

It’s odd how one day you think “I would never catch myself wearing that”, and then years later that trend is in style. Spring is a GREAT season for your Mom style. Always casual and comfy but stylish.

What will you be wearing this season? I’d love to hear in the comments below! ❤
