Spring is somewhat of a misnomer in Colorado.
I'm pretty sure it's April (snow)showers that actually bring May flowers over here. But, the promise of spring, as fickle as it may be, is still magical to me.
And, like my 6-year-old, I truly cannot resist a twirly spring dress.
Pretty Old Navy Dresses...
Let's just jump to the point, shall we? I think I found the perfect travel outfit.
Or at the very least, I found the perfect travel pants. They're easy to wear, extremely light, and even have interesting little details. They're sporty but pretty, and available in three stunning hues fit for dopamine dressing.
But it took a major packing fail...
I'm always on the hunt for a fantastic dress I can wear on repeat during the warm weather months. I specifically search for one that won't have any risk of wardrobe malfunctions, is comfortable enough for a lazy summer day, and is easy to move in.
Bonus points if it can be worn both to a wedding and casually...

I fell in love with these cargo pants by Free People the second I saw them on Backcountry's website. They reminded me of a favorite pair I had back in the early 2000s...somewhat slouchy, a bit baggier, worn lower around the waist and insanely comfortable.
I wore those...
Last year during my epic jean shorts try-on the clear winners were a pair under $60.
Not the designer denim. Not the $150+ pair. A budget-friendly pair well under $100.
I was determined to repeat this experiment in 2022, except this time, all denim shorts are under $100 and most pairs are under $75. I tried high-rise, distressed and even...
I was not expecting the Birkenstock Kyotos to be my favorite when the large box of Birks I ordered arrived at my house.
I already knew I'd adore the Madrids (they would definitely be in the running for my favorite), everyone else loves the Gizehs (the amazing reviews are hard to ignore), and I wore the lined Buckleys this...
Are you still on a quest for the perfect new swimsuit in time for spring break and summer? SAME. I keep seeing a ton of stunning bathing suits, but can't seem to pull the trigger on any of them.
The suits I do keep going back to summer after summer, however, are the ones that come highly recommended by...
When it comes to denim shorts, Agolde has been a long-time favorite brand for a lot of us, with the Parker Vintage Cut Offs as the popular choice. They sit comfortably at the waist, the denim (despite being rigid) already has a broken-in feel, and they ace the washes every time.
The one catch? Agolde shorts are not cheap. While...
The Mom Edit's first ever Bikini Shop is here — brand new for 2022! Each year that we published our Swim Shop (going on at least five years now), we'd get a flurry of emails from readers asking about bikinis. And I get it...I rock a bikini on the regular, too. And while we never meant to ignore the bikinis, the hours of...
One of the things we often get asked, here at The Mom Edit, is what are the best swimsuits for after-baby? Typically, everyone’s looking for postpartum suits that flatten the pooch, feature tummy control, cover stretch marks and fit in a flattering, supportive way. It’s a topic we’ve been discussing for years now.
What we're not interested in? Bathing suits...
