LoveBrownSugar Chic: Sneak Peak

Sneakers, fitted caps and backpacks. Yes, I’m about that Tomboy life this season. As a “girly girl” who normally wouldn’t be caught dead without a flouncy skirt and platform wedges on, this is a true testament to the versatility of personal style.

Although I’ll never give up on my A-line skirts, dresses or my heels, this winter I’m saving room for boyish staples I otherwise wouldn’t be caught dead in.

Why? Because I can. And why the hell not? Our grade school favorites have been given an adult upgrade.

 Trends are all about embracing them with your own personal stamp. So here’s mine.

  1. I keep grade school staples on hand. As a mom, I like to look comfy but stylish. leather keds, lots of rolled up denim, and tanks under printed button up shirts keep me “trendy soccer mom” 🙂
