Busy moms know all too well that fashion often takes a backseat to their kids. After all, making sure the children are dressed, fed, functional, and out the door by a certain time every morning is a feat in and of itself. Now add on time to do hair, makeup, and throwing together a trendy outfit for themselves and it's practically mission impossible.
It's not like moms "don't care." In fact they do care, a lot, but being the selfless goddesses they are, they often shirk self-care in order to have their other family members settled. And while it is impossible to help moms reclaim every moment they once had to get themselves ready, there are small things they can do to feel more put together and stylish.
One unsuspecting way to do it? Investing in some statement earrings. Predicted to be a huge 2018 trend, statement earrings have taken an interesting turn. Once thought of as "gaudy," these bold pieces are taking on a geometric and minimalist style to help create sophisticated looks out of casual clothing.
White T-shirt and jeans kind of day? Just slip on a pair of signature statement earrings and an everyday mom go-to outfit is totally transformed. And all one has to do to elevate her look is simply slip them on and go. We rounded up 30 super trendy styles that can appeal to any personality. Who said going glam had to be time-consuming?
