Mother’s Day is in less than two weeks! As many people hustle to find the perfect gift for mom, all of you fashionistas out there are probably getting a head start on what you will wear for your moms special day. The key to selecting a great Mother’s Day outfit is to know what time of day that you and your family will be congregating. Will you be celebrating early in the day with a lovely brunch at her favorite restaurant? Maybe mom wants to sleep in a little and grab lunch or dinner later in the day. Whatever you’ll be doing, you’ll want to make sure that you are occasion appropriate from head-to-toe.
Out To Brunch: Who doesn’t love brunch? This mid-morning meal not only gives you a head start on your festivities, but it will put you and mom in a great mood to enjoy the rest of your day together. When selecting a brunch appropriate outfit, think spring chic. Enjoying a leisurely morning allows you to pull out the sundress that you’ve been dying to wear along with your favorite jewelry to accompany it. Wearing a sundress with a jean jacket creates a breezy springtime look. The nude coloring of both these wedges and clutch help to bring the outfit together. For a daytime outfit like this, we prefer delicate jewelry. The Seraphina CZ Heart Necklace and the ABS Heart Pyramid Stud Earrings would go well with the other elements in this ensemble allowing for a fun and feminine brunch worthy look!
Lunch With Mom: If you plan on heading out in the afternoon, try throwing on a pop of color. A bright and flowing blouse would go great with a pair of fitted white skinny jeans and a royal blue clutch bag. Combining gold jewelry with a dash of color will really do your lunchtime look justice. We thought this outfit would look fabulous with the Ben-Amun Rectangle Double Snake Chain Necklace, which we proceeded to pair with both the Kanupriya Gold Chalcedony and Aqua Cocktail Ring and the Julie Vos Mondrian Gold and Aqua Chalcedony Earrings. The earrings and the ring, which both contain the precious chalcedony stone, help to make this sunny look even brighter!
Dinner On The Town: When it comes to evening wear, we thought that it would be fun to go with a slightly darker look. A black frock with lace detailing at the top is a good choice for dinner on Mother’s Day. You can accessorize the look with a pair of sleek black heels and add a pop of color with your bag. We chose to work around this coral clutch bag from Tom Ford. We selected the Carolee Coral Cabochon Bib Necklace, which we combined with the Taara Gold Mesh Bangle Bracelet. You can finish the look off with a nice shade of lipstick. We chose “Lipstick in Niagara” by Nars. This look is elegant no matter where you decide to go to dinner on Mother’s Day. Remember, it’s better to be overdressed than under-dressed!
Have a happy Mother’s Day!
