badgley mischka pink dress Paillette Mini by it offers a smooth Badgley Mischka Two Tone Sequin

While the official start of autumn is still weeks away, September engenders a back-to-school mentality that leaves most of us reassessing our current wardrobes, looking to the autumn/winter trends for the pieces to help us through the new season

Two of my favorite dresses this spring are a major investment, but they're both so easy to wear for days at home and abroad

The block heel and platform give height with stability and ease the pitch on the big toe joint, while the EEE forefoot gives the bunion room

Other modern spring trends we're loving for moms right now are solid metallics in soft hues, fashion-forward cape dresses, sheer sleeves for a touch of elegance and super feminine, romantic details like ruffles, ruching, tiers, tie straps (think bows!) and lace
