We are back with another edition of our Reader Style Series. I am thrilled to introduce you all to super working mom, Meghan! Meg is one of those people who glows from within – you’ll never see her without a smile or her contagious laugh (her best accessory, in my opinion). She is one of those women who always looks effortlessly put-together and polished, yet COMFORTABLE! And while chasing two little boys, comfort is totally key. She rocks the corporate scene by day, but I asked Meg to wear something to our little photoshoot that she would wear to a party…. on a weekend…. WITH kids! And yes, she nailed it. Meg has a real mom style worth a double take.
