Worry Lines Go Away

Worry Lines Go Away
Remember those care free and worry free days before you were a Mom? If I had to say what the biggest change is from pre-kids to post - it would be the amount I worry. Elizabeth Stone said it best -  “Making the decision to have a child - it is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ”  Lucky for me I have found some great - affordable- skin creams that are really working in minimizing my worry lines and even fading my age and sun spots. If you can't tolerate retinol without irritation, try the Olay Regenerist. it contains Niacinimide which works like retinol but more gently. Also, FYI, did read that you should avoid retinol if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. What are your fave worry away wonders?

Step Up to the Bauble Bar

Friendship bracelet with studs, very cute!

Hermes inspired for under $30.00

Like the J. crew one ALL the bloggers wear for almost half off!

Need I say anything, love this piece!



Custom - they make your name for under $100.00
Over the years, I have come to love costume jewelery. I love that if I lose it, or my child rips it off my neck, I am not going to have to report it to my homeowners insurance.  A burglar would be sorely disappointed after breaking into my jewelery box. Plus, looks change so often, costume allows you to update without feeling guilty. I would never begrudge anyone spending thousands on a classic piece (like your engagement ring or Mikimoto pearls) - but who REALLY knows the difference? Nothing can jazz up a plain white tee shirt better than a statement necklace.  Found this site after searching for pyramid cuff bracelets after drooling over the Hermes cuffs seen on the celebs. Check out www.baublebar.com for some amazing pieces.  Where do you get your costume jewels? Share!

Running Errands

Shirt: J Crew ; Jeans: Blank NYC (old); Sweater:  J Crew factory(sold out); Sunglasses: Number One from ebay; Bag: Michael Kors (old) similar here. Boots:  Franco Sarto (on sale now!). Vest: Patagonia (very old!)

Time to run some errands Moms! Must be comfy and not overdone. Love denim leggings tucked into riding boots. Also, still need a bag that can hold some wipes, an iPhone, stickers and coloring books. After all, must keep little one(s) occupied while you are waiting in line! What do you wear running errands? Want to share your super chic look? E-mail me at superchicmom@comcast.net and I will post your pic with as little or as much info as you want.
