Good Morning readers!  I know what you’re thinking, “Wait, she’s already posted this same outfit in Mother Knows Best Part 1!”  Well, the first time I photographed this outfit I didn’t like the way I styled my hair.  I felt like it didn’t fit well with the overall look  plus I forgot to show a few different angles of these jeans, and these jeans need to be seen! I tried not to change too much about the outfit because I really did love the original look of it, but I didn’t have everything from the original.  Thats is why I am wearing a slightly different blouse, a few other accessories and carrying a different purse.  I just love the pop of color from the Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mac bag!  To me, this outfit screams the 70s, but I’m not the only one who feels this way about Mother Denim.  According to writer, Esther Adams from the Vogue Daily, “this is your go-to brand for seventies styles with irresistible stroke-worthy appeal.”  If you’re interested in learning more about Mother Denim, check out this awesome interview on Denimology.

Mother Knows Best Part 1

Outfit: The Curfew Bell-Bottom jeans (Mother Denim from The Mix), White blouse (Joie from The Mix),  Aqua bandeaux (Frock Candy), Platform shoes (Charles by Charles David, Thank you to Park Lane), Fringe purse (LuLu’s)

Jewelry: Arrow necklace (Thank you to the Cuckoo’ Nest), Suede Penny Lariat Necklace (Thank to Samanca), Rings (Banana Republic) Ivory beaded bracelet (Thank you to Femme Fatale),  Michael Kors watch (old similar here), Pyramid Studded Cuff (Style Tryst from The Mix)

Good Morning readers! Let me start off by saying that when it comes to denim, Mother knows best.  No, I’m not talking about my own mother I’m talking about designers Tim Kaeding, former designer for 7 for All Mankind, and Lela Tillem, former president of sales and marketing at Citizens for Humanity who collaborated together to create this killer brand.  These are the most amazingly comfortable, yet flattering pair of jeans I have ever worn!  That is probably because Tim Kaeding has been experimenting with materials that feel like cashmere, but look like denim for the past two years.  What a genius! Right? I don’t know about you all, but some mornings I wake up and want to wear nothing more than a pair of comfy yoga pants.  Kaeding has acknowledged this and says that in order “for jeans to make a comeback, technology has to step in” (http://www.vogue.com).  That explains why it doesn’t even feel like I’m wearing real jeans.  However, Mother doesn’t just pride on texture, the designer duo continually develop new fits.  I am going to stop here because I have a Mother Knows Best Part 2 coming soon and will finish telling you all about this to-die-for brand.
