I'm a Tired Mom Juggling Childcare and WFH—These Outfit Formulas Are Helping
Pre-quarantine, I was a new-ish mom with my family's schedule down pat, and I was damn proud of it. I could balance my career and childcare thanks to my incredible support system (aka my mom and mother-in-law) and felt like I was on a roll. I'll be honest: It's been really difficult letting go of that. As many working moms can understand, finding the fine line between me time, childcare time, and work time (without mom-guilt seeping in) has been a challenge. One thing I've been prioritizing is feeling my best every day, and for me, that always starts with my outfits.
I'm generally a big neutrals girl, so naturally, my quarantine wardrobe reflects that. As the months roll on, I'm refining my looks to be classic and comfortable so that I can continue my balancing act. These are the four outfits I plan to keep on rotation for the foreseeable future.
It's my opinion that no one should be without a matching loungewear set to get them through Mondays during these times. I'm inspired by Aimee Song's neutral set that can be worn together or separately. Plus, this outfit is perfect for lounging in the living room and watching Winnie the Pooh with my daughter.Now that the weather is getting warmer in L.A., I need an outfit that can take me from a day full of Zoom meetings to an evening walk outside. I'm lusting after a crew-neck beige sweater with a pair of classic white shorts similar to this look.There are, of course, days when even the busiest moms need to take a break from knitwear, so I plan on going for a classic outfit like Pam Arias did. High-waist jeans instantly make me feel like myself, so on days when I'm feeling a little run down, I encourage myself to pull it together with this easy-but-stylish outfit. Fashion influencer Marianne is also a mom to two young children, so I always look to her for inspiration on dressing properly for the job. I love that this outfit incorporates spring trends, like a cozy cardigan and flat sandals, but also is perfect for running after a toddler.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
