Seriously, who doesn't want to be a stylish mom after seeing this inspiration photo? I loved this spread in a J.Crew catalog about a year ago, and decided to give it my own spin this week. Shorts and wedges make the look more comfy casual (and no longer work appropriate), but ultimately I love the classic preppiness of both versions. Below, I'm showing you my latest Stella & Dot acquisitions. I've been wearing S&D jewelry for close to two years now and I've found it to be the only costume jewelry that doesn't tarnish, so in my opinion they are totally worth the investment. I focused on bracelets and rings this order since I wear those daily (and those pieces tend to turn green the fastest). How would you wear today's look and which S&D piece is your favorite?
