Summer Trends I’m Loving As A Mom
Summer’s here and you know what that means! It’s time to trade in those heavy layers and boots for breezy and comfortable looks. As a mom, I know there’s not a whole lot of sitting back and unwinding this time of year, but that’s ok! Mom life isn’t slowing down and I’m trying to embrace this season. My son is starting hockey for the first time this week and I’m so excited for this next chapter, even though it’s only the start of it. Hockey moms, give me all your tips! As life just keeps getting busier, I still like to keep up on my fashion trends even when chasing around two toddlers. I have to say I love what I’m seeing - bright colors, breezy looks, along with comfortability, which who as a mom doesn’t love. I’ve put together some of my favorite trends that are affordable, ideal for any mom, and will make you feel stylish without sacrificing comfort.
My favorite trend of summer is butter yellow clothing, especially dresses. This soft, creamy hue makes it an ideal choice if you’re looking for a subtle pop of color without overwhelming brightness. I also feel like it compliments all skin tones.
SHOP MY FAVORITE BUTTER YELLOW PIECES:
Next, is claw clips. I’m loving this 90’s trend and it’s such an easy way to style your hair. From the morning rush to special occasions, claw clip hairstyles can help you look chic in seconds. It’s also perfect for those days when you know you need a hair wash but don’t have time. A statement claw clip can really do the trick and make you feel put together.
SHOP MY FAVORITE CLAW CLIPS:
A trend I didn’t know if I liked but then fell in love with - bucket hats! I was intimidated at first but then I realized there’s nothing better than hiding a bad hair day under a hat. I’ve been loving the raffia trend so pair that with a bucket hat and I’m in!
SHOP MY FAVORITE BUCKET HATS:
Next up, tote bags. I can’t go anywhere without one now. Tote bags are becoming a staple, offering both practicality and style. Say no more as a mom! I love having a big tote that I can throw all the kid’s toys, snacks, you name it in.
SHOP MY FAVORITE TOTE BAGS:
Another trend I’m here for is athleisure dresses. From running errands to playdates to meeting up with friends, an athleisure dress is a great way to elevate any look. Super comfy and casual but also a great way to feel put together as a mom. Even during a brisk morning, throw a hoodie on over the dress and it’s still practical yet stylish.
SHOP MY FAVORITE ATHLEISURE DRESSES:
Tis the season for linen pants. An elevated look that is beyond comfortable. Whether you’re throwing together a comfortable office- appropriate ensemble, packing for your next tropical getaway, or looking for a timeless staple to wear every weekend, this airy style is an absolute must-have. Let’s not forget that I plan to chase two toddlers around all summer, so I feel like a breezy fit is the way to go!
SHOP MY FAVORTIE LINEN PANTS:
Last but not least, square toed sandals are making a comeback! These sandals are sleek, comfortable and simple - a mom’s dream. I’ll have one in every pair please!
SHOP MY FAVORITE SANDALS:
At the end of the day, style doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes all it takes is one outfit you actually want to wear. As a mom, simplicity is key. These specific trends make me feel most confident and comfortable as a mom. I always like to say less is more but feeling put together can make all the difference.
Happy summer mamas! XO
