My MOM Uniform - An Update

Summer is my favourite time of year, I love the sun and the heat, swimming and barbecues. Kids help you start your day early and lead you to a certain uniform that I've spoken about in my earlier posts. The uniform is easy and uninspiring, but it's easy. So when I dropped my husband off at the subway one morning and saw a young woman in khaki shorts and chambray shirt I knew that I could incorporate that into my summer mom uniform. I had all the pieces, why hadn't I thought of it? Then the kids started fighting and the youngest started crying...inspiration can come from a girl walking to the subway.







Chambray Shirt - Banana Republic
Shorts - Ann Taylor
Belt - Cassis
Sandals - Michael Kors
Watch - Michael Kors
Hat - Henschel Hat Co.
