How to Pull off a Mommy-Me Look (Without Looking Ridiculous)

I personally wouldn’t be caught dead in a bikini identical to my 4-year old daughter’s suit… I have enough body-images woes without looking like a giant, super-sized kid.  This being said, Mommy and Me looks can actually be fun and chic.  The important thing is that they be either classy and subtle or brash and tongue-in-cheek.  A few super cute examples that won’t make you puke: 





1. Matching bracelets from Princess Pearls. Jewelry is a great way to go if you want to share something matching and unique with your little girl.  This beautiful crystal and pearl Mother Daughter set will make any special occasion even more special.




2. Head to the shore with matching beach totes from FootstepsClothing.  Each stylish tote is sturdy and roomy enough for all your beach essentials.  If you’re in a silly mood, tuck in a pair of these “My Girl is Peachy; My Mom is Bananas” tanks for fun cover-ups.  Also from Footsteps – check out these cute and comfy after-bath wraps - go all out matching in the privacy of your own home. 


3. If it’s good enough for Britney, and you’re feeling extra sassy, pick up a “Don’t you wish your mom was hot like mine” tee for junior and a “Don’t ya?” tee for yourself.  Ms. Spears was spotted buying these tops for her sons at LA swanky-kid hotspot Bel Bambini – you can get yours at tuniandg.com. 


4. This month’s In Style has a great mini-me feature – a couple of faves are the J. Crew patent-leather cutout ballet flats for mom and daughter and these luxurious Ralph Lauren cable cashmere crewneck sweaters for mom and child .
