stylish summer mom outfit for playdates

When I posted this instagram, I heard your comments and request to start a more casual ‘Mom Series’ on the blog.  So many of you have requested to see everyday outfits that work while running around with your little ones.  I am excited to bring back a ”Mommy Mondays” that will be everything from sharing pregnancy updates, funny Knoxisms to mom style.  If you have any specific request please leave me a comment on this post.  I am looking forward to sharing more of this side of our life with you!

Knox and I often leave the house matching, on accident.  You would think when you have a boy that this wouldn’t happen.  Honestly, my love for stripes is the problem.  I buy stripes for Knox and myself a little too frequently so we are bound to walk out of the house in matching navy stripes at least once a week.  This outfit is more subtle because he is just wearing seersucker shorts, but last week at the doctor I was wearing this shirt (I wear it weekly.  And sometimes two days in a row.)  and Knox was wearing my favorite stripe polo with a denim collar.  So many people commented on our matching outfits, but I hadn’t even noticed it until the nurse pointed it out!  Oops!

I am still wearing my Guyana tote out!  It is the perfect casual every day tote and it goes with everything!  Knox is to the age now where all I need for his is a diaper and some wipes that I keep in the car.  Gone are the days on packing an overnight bag just to leave the house!

I always keep my jewelry simple when we are out and about.  My favorite everyday jewelry is to layer two or three dainty gold necklaces.  All these have sentimental value so they are always in the rotation.  (My diamond cross my parents gave me on my 30th birthday, the #FrederickKnox necklace Jane Pope gifted me, and my mini letter Maya Brenner necklace.)
