Fashion Mission Statement

The transition from a full time working wardrobe to that of a full time mum can be a little confusing to say the least. We instinctively knew the fashion rules of an office:

Successfully navigating what was and wasn’t acceptable, working with ‘the do’s’ and avoiding the don’ts, tweaking the dress code to our stylish advantage. We knew that those great tailored trousers looked fabulous with heels but would do nothing for us with flats so heels it was. In the same way we know most  jeans would also work so much better with a heel…but times have changed …we now have children in tow and adventure playgrounds to explore.

Add to that those lovely, irreversible changes (unless you have Tracy Anderson on speed dial) that happen to your body after childbirth and those cheap skinny jeans designed for young, flat stomached, hipless teenagers don’t really work  anymore either. But aren’t they the easiest thing to throw on every day? So what do we do, do we try to fit in and adopt the “mum uniform” with its dowdy subtext or do we buy a wardrobe full of one hit fashion wonders trying to pick up where we left off pre-kids?

Neither.

Here at Earth, Wit and Style we are going to guide you through building a successful, wearable, workable wardrobe of essential basics that you can add the odd fashion item to or update with accessories, which will see you through the day from school drop off  to after school activities. Let’s re-write the Mum style rulebook together.
