What’s in Every Mom’s Closet This Season
Getting dressed as a mom can feel like solving a puzzle while juggling. It’s not always easy to strike that balance between feeling good in what you’re wearing and, you know, being practical for the chaos of mom life.
So, what are mom's wearing that looks nice but practical? Let's avoid super fast fashion that just stops looking nice after a few months and steer towards wearing the basics since you can get a lot of use out of them.
Don't stop wearing what you love
Let go of the "wear the crappy clothes so the good ones don't get dirty" mindset, and shift towards "I can wear my nice clothes and I just have to wash/care for them more". This way you'll get a lot more use out of your closet, you'll feel better in the things you wear, and you'll be able to feel and look stylish while being a mom.
Being a mom, it is a transformative time where your wardrobe can evolve with you to fit you and your lifestyle, while still allowing you to look and feel your best.
Mom Fashion Tips
Sometimes nursing moms don't feel like they can dress nice and have to wear nursing specific pieces which aren't always the most fashionable.
Bauble's fashion experts recommend that if you want to wear dresses while nursing, you can wear black high-waisted biker shorts underneath so that when you can pull up your dress and still be covered.
Check out Bauble's Ophelia Dress for a fun and light dress option you can definitely rock on a family day out.
If you want something a little more reserved, you can get Bauble's Nichola Dress. It works perfectly for nursing moms since it's a button down knitted dress
If you want to up for flowy and/or button down shirts, you can layer a camisole underneath so that you can nurse without showing off your while midsection.
One of Bauble's latest release is the Lotus Blouse, a button down polo that's definitely equally stylish and practical for busy moms.
You can also try to look for pieces that button/tie up in front if they aren’t specifically nursing friendly. Choose at least midi length dresses that fit a bit loose so it's easy for you to follow them around and get down to their level without showing off too much.
This Astral Harmony Set from Bauble Buy can actually be the perfect stylish way to rock a nursing tank underneath and have no trouble taking your top off since it's a robe type blouse.
Accessories are your friends
The reality is you almost always never have time to fully sit down and style an outfit. You're always on the go, and might not even have even a second to remember what works with what in your closet.
If possible, try to keep a couple of staple jewelry and accessories on hand to help you complete any look. You can start with simple studs in a color you really like. Some moms keep them on if they're durable and comfortable enough so that they don't have to think about it anymore.
Bauble's Retro Hoop Earrings can be a fun way to stay stylish with beads and crystals in multiple tonal shades.
Another pair worth having is Bauble's Heart Pearl Earring.

Final Thoughts
As a mom, things are constantly changing. Not only your environment and responsibilities, but your body as well. Remember that what matters the most if to wear whatever you're comfortable in. Whatever outfit makes you look and feel good if what matters the most and it's totally normal to have "on" and "off" days when it comes to styling and it never hurt anyone to just throw on whatever you can grab on those "off' days.
