Look Of The Week: Gwen Stefani's Maternity Look

Good Monday Morning!!! I am back with a Edgy & Preppy Holiday look. Get away from those tragic Christmas sweaters and do red and green like inspiration Gwen Stefani!! 

This look starts with a great pair of jeans, like the Size 32 Citizens of Humanity jeans available in our store. Throw on a easy tee shirt and a plaid jacket. Gwen's shoes are great but may not be the most versatile option, so we opted for either Aldo sneaker wedges or a suede pointy toe wedge. 

Don't be afraid of the men's section! I was in Urban Outfitters yesterday and found a WEALTH of great merchandise in the men's section. Likewise, this great bomber is plucked right from the Men's section of Forever 21. 

Finish the look off with a wine manicure, and aviator sunglasses. Done. and done. Check out all the details below!

Congratulations Halle!!!!

In case you haven't heard, the lovely Halle Berry is pregnant with her second child!!! In celebration, this blog is all about her! Ms. Berry always radiated and had phenomenal style during her first pregnancy and I'm sure that she will not disappoint during her second.



Halle during her first pregnancy with Nahla

In the look above, Halle keeps it simple with jeans, a sexy (yet appropriate) sheer tee, boots, leather jacket and a zebra print tote.  Obviously, it's a little too warm for boots and leather jackets, but that doesn't mean that this look can't be recreated.  Instead of the traditional blue denim jeans, I opted for green skinny jeans paired with a black rib tank top.  Simple right? What brings the look together are the accessories of baroque print wedges, a leopard print necklace intertwined with a rope chain and a orange Michael Kors bag. 

Green Skinny Jeans, $12.50, Edgy, Meet Preppy
Black Rib Tank, $16.95, Gap
Michael Kors Tote, $298, Macy's

Look Of The Week - Bey Perfect

By Kandron

I watched Beyonce's documentary over the weekend and was inspired to create a Bey worthy maternity look from our store. Here's the look I'm using for inspiration (from our EMP Mommies Pinterest Board).

I love that there isn't anything fussy about this look. Its pretty straight forward. Leggings, a shirt, a jacket and some heels. Pretty simple, but also chic and edgy. So I started with our mauve tunic, to add in a prep factor. Paired it with sequined leggings, for the edge. And added a few more accessories for interest and here's the look.

Mauve Tunic - $25 Edgy, Meet Preppy
Moto Jacket - $39 Urban Outfitters
Tapestry Wedges - $80 Aldo
Floral Studded Flats - $80 Aldo
Sequin Leggings - $25 Asos
Bangles - $9 Forever 21

By Valerie

Welcome to our Edgy Meet Preppy blog! Each week we will style looks from our retail site. This week, we are jazzing up our black blazer and medium wash maternity jeans.  

To add a little spice to the ever versatile blazer, I paired it with a cognac and black leopard print scarf. Additional accessories include basic patent coral pumps (or flats if you are not able to wear heels), gold, black and white bangles and button pearl earrings.  To finish off the look, an additional color was mixed in by incorporating a royal blue purse. To keep this look chic, wear a plain white cami under the blazer.

Look Of the Week: Pink & Plaid

Welcome to our Edgy Meet Preppy blog! Each week we will style looks from our retail site. This week, we are starting with our great pink coat and plaid dress. 

To make the look interesting, I opted for another pattern in the tights that will compliment the plaid but would add some character to the look. And to keep this from going TOO girly, pretty, pink, I added blue moccasins. 

Pink Genuine Kids Coat (18Mo) - $10 Edgy, Meet Preppy

Brown Plaid Izod Dress (18Mo) - $12.50 Edgy, Meet Preppy

Pink & White Polka Dotted Tights -  $6 Old Navy

Throw a white long sleeved tee or turtleneck under the dress and this kid is ready to go.
