“A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.” ~ Coco Chanel<\/em><\/p>\n

It’s no secret that staying chic with a bump is no easy task, possibly even harder once the little bundle arrives.<\/p>\n

That in mind, over the last few months we’ve been focusing on {mama style}<\/strong> from bump, to post-baby and beyond starting with a few style staples<\/strong> and basics to help build a chic, versatile, and EASY to maintain wardrobe<\/strong>. With the right pieces you can look fab in 15 minutes<\/strong> even if you haven’t had time to squeeze in that shower you are so desperately craving!<\/p>\n

Feeding my obsession with shoes<\/strong>, we started from the toes up in our first {mama style} post (yes, we’re talking about the shoes!<\/a>) and followed with some basic wardrobe staples<\/a>. Today we continue the trend with some fabulous accessories<\/strong>. The best thing about accessories is if you pair the right pieces<\/strong> with something as basic as denim and a white tee<\/strong> you can still walk out of the house looking amazing. Later this week we’ll visit Sunnies, Scarves & Statement Jewelry… but for today, it’s all about the belts & the bags<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Every fashionable gal<\/strong> (whether a mama or not) needs these three bags<\/strong> in her arsenal: the chic city bag<\/a> (cross-body straps a HUGE plus!), a fab clutch<\/a> – great to use as a wallet, easy to transfer from one bag to another (especially to throw in a diaper bag), and a versitile tote<\/a> (I love straw or canvas for summer, transition to leather or patent for fall\/winter).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Adding a belt to any outfit adds an instant dose of polish<\/strong> – both to accentuate the waist that you’ve worked for or to cinch above a beautiful bump for a touch of much-needed definition. Three great basics to start with: a classic in rich brown<\/a>, something with a pop of color<\/a>, and a touch of sheen in black patent<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hope you’ve enjoyed the first of our accessory style staples! As promised, tomorrow we’ll explore\u00a0Sunnies, Scarves & Statement Jewelry<\/em>. Later we’ll put together some amazing outfits, head to toe, using the pieces featured in {mama style staples}<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
