Monday Mingle: Casual Mom Style
Or what I wear when I'm working from home! I've had a busy few weeks of appointments and meetings--we're pitching and planning lots for 2015. On a rare day where all I have to do is take care of the girls and work from home I love being comfortable. But a girls got her reputation to keep up.
On my comfortable casual days, I pick denim and accessories that are practical. I layered a Lou & Grey sweatshirt over an old RL turtleneck and slipped on my current favorite denim--the CAbi constellation jeans. I live in these on the weekend.
Adding to the mix are a few new accessories. First, my annual purchase of the Ugg boots. Have I told you that I have to walk a nearly a mile to school drop off in all types of weather. Uggs are my saviors. They keep my feet so happy even when it's 18 degrees. I set the tone for the walk to school. If I am grumpy and cold it ruins the whole morning. If I am cozy and upbeat, the girls are too. Meet this year's winner--the Cambridge.
And then there's the new bag. It's the newest from AVON--the Classic Butler Bag. This bag is all about organization. The Butler Bag was created to solve the common problems so many women face with their go-to daily totes--the chaos within.
The Butler Bag was created by serial entrepreneur, Jen Groover. Jen was inspired to create this style because of the common problem of digging through her purse and never being able to locate what she was looking for. She took a dishwasher tray, placed it in her bag and boom, everything had a specific place and the design idea was born.
Take a look at all the nifty compartments inside. You'll never hunt for your keys again. This is a style steal--it's under $40.
