What to Wear this Fall (& Winter)

November 11 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

What to wear for fall- essential pieces for your regular or capsule fall wardrobe.

Lately I have found myself somewhat obsessed with the concept of a capsule wardrobe. Have you guys heard of, or do you even subscribe to, this practice?  Basically you buy a certain number of items (37 seems to be the number I come across most), and mix-and-match them over and over to create an entire wardrobe. The idea being that you get only pieces you love and then don't have to think too much about what to wear in the morning once you're capsule is complete. Whether you think this sounds … [Read more...]

Finding My Style on Pinterest

October 2 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

I'm debuting a big idea soon (very soon) and am currently hard at work on it. Also, we're currently tinkering with the feed a bit, mainly trying to get the top feature image here to show up there. While I work on all that, I wanted to share with you something else I've been working on - finding my style on Pinterest. Inspired by all the great remixable wardrobe info. Audrey shared here and here, I'm finally starting to pull myself together.  So far I've accumulated some colored pants, a few … [Read more...]

DIY Autumn Arrangements

September 27 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

Lot of pretty looks to try at home this fall.

Is it cooling down where you live yet?  Fall is definitely in the air here and with the crisp weather, comes a desire to fully immerse myself in Autumn.  Despite my penchant for DIY projects, I've never been much of a floral arrangement kind of girl (I actually just got my first wreath last Christmas). However, the web has been teeming with bold and beautiful autumn foliage lately.  So much so that I'm inspired to try out a DIY arrangement at home.  In no particluar order, here are my top six … [Read more...]

How to Style a White Tee

September 13 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

How to Style a White T-Shirt: Tons of looks and tips on how to get the most out of this basic - Love her easy style!

Have you guys ever seen those "Closet Must Haves" or "10 Pieces Every Woman Must Own" lists in style magazines?  Usually, a white tee would make it onto those lists, but I never understood why.  I bought a white tee, only to have it sit in my closet because I never knew how to wear it.  It was always just a plain white tee to me, which then translated to me as a plain outfit. … [Read more...]

What to Wear: Simple Summer Style

July 19 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

Don't you guys love how much easier it is to dress for summer?  My sister and I were just discussing how summer dresses are our new favorite thing. There's absolutely no coordinating necessary, your whole outfit is just waiting on the hanger for you in the morning ready to be slipped on.  And they're super comfy too.  What's not to love? I'm also totally diggin' two of this summer's biggest trends, neon and stripes.  So here's my formula for the perfect summer look:  comfy striped dress + neon … [Read more...]

What to Wear: Building Your Modern Mom Wardrobe

May 22 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

I have a confession to make, I've sort of (OK I've really) let myself go in the fashion department since having kids.  At first it was because of the post-baby bod... then it was because of my need for everything to be breastfeeding-friendly... when that was done I was pregnant again and the cycle started all over.   But no more, I'm finally excited about getting my cute back!  The problem is I still don't know exactly what to wear.  So I've enlisted the help of MPMK's newest contributor … [Read more...]

Chevron (Again)

May 15 by Steph (MPMK Founder)

photo via ada & darcy   I admit I jumped on the chevron bandwagon with the rest of 'em.  There was a time, in fact, when I could have easily gone for a whole room of chevron if I'd only had the means to do so.  But like so many wildly popular trends, this one seemed to be dying down again.  Or so I thought... From home decor to accessories, lately I've been spotting a whole new crop of chevron fare.  Or maybe not chevron exactly but definitely derivative of chevron.  I'm … [Read more...]
