There once was a time when I’d attend events that necessitated eating high protein snacks all day in order to fit into a sexy dress over warding off pregnancy queries. Since the glamour of a life lived once children are asleep is suspended, styles have shifted to fit today’s lifestyle. Clothing and decor not only have to be beautiful but comfortable.
September’s been a month of pivots from the return to school, office and crisp autumn air. Summer clothes and linens are being folded into their air-sealed bags, which opens up the possibilities of a new image. Designs are looser and seasonal to match the deeper jewel tones of fall. The textures are soft with a slightly boho feel that’s modern with iconic appeal.

Fashion
Since the biggest morning commute may be from your coffee maker to the laptop, stiff work clothes need to hold up to a day that includes an impromptu dog walk and dealing with the yard guy. Clothes are slightly slouchier yet still chic. Comfortable dresses, sweaters and accessories show a couture quality from their autumnal tones and patterns, practical pieces that are sturdy and stylish complete the look.
