The busy mom lifestyle is definitely not incompatible with looking chic and put-together at all times. But if you prefer to limit your clothing choices to versatile, basic staples, then the best way to upgrade any look on-the-go is with the help of a few statement accessories. From the perfect jewelry pieces without an expiration date to the staple handbag and watch, here is the modern mom’s guide on the must-have accessories for an instant outfit upgrade.
- A Great Structured Handbag

Chic, comfortable, sturdy yet not too heavy, casual but streamlined at the same time – the right handbag definitely needs to tick a lot of boxes. Number one: pick a neutral shade you absolutely love and wouldn’t mind committing to day after day. Next, make sure to check the hardware (which should not be on the maximalist side, but rather minimal) for quality, as well as the seams. If you love a polished look and you’re looking forward to getting a lot of use out of your investment, make sure to ditch the boho styles and go for a structured handbag that can retain its original shape for much longer.

There are very few accessories out there that can give your outfit an instantly classy makeover better than a pair of timeless pearl earrings. Regardless if you’re saving them for romantic date nights or wearing them on repeat from day to night, pearl earrings carry the power to transform any look from basic to put-together. Whether you opt for Tahitian pearl earrings or a classic pair of crisp white beauties, any little black dress, pair of skinnies or smart-casual ensemble is sure to get an upgrade with the right pair of bling. And if you’re not one to go for the classic neutrals, then a feminine and romantic pair of pink pearl earrings is definitely a fresh and youthful alternative.

When it comes to picking out the ultimate staple watch, there are a few things you should look for. Firstly, make sure that your selected piece is versatile and easy to match with the widest range of outfits in your wardrobe. The key rule to picking a great watch with style-elevating powers is to aim for a piece that’s a few levels ‘smarter’ than your typical outfit. If you love rocking jeans on repeat, a classic streamlined piece in black, blush or taupe can do wonders for your entire look.
