Angela’s Lab | Off-the-Shoulder + Denim = Girls’ Night Out
Like the rest of the fashion-loving free world, I am obsessed with the off-the-shoulder (aka cold-shoulder) top this season. This one I found by Rebecca Taylor is my favorite right now for several reasons: 1. the shoulder can be worn up or down, 2. it doesn't gap in the front when I bend over, 3. it's flowy and doesn't wrinkle like the cotton ones (plus I hate ironing), 4. I love the bow detail in the back, and 5. it's the most gorgeous, vivid shade of pink which is universally flattering and makes for the prettiest pictures. I am wearing it for day with shorts, and night with jeans and heels for my next girls' ...Read more.

Angela’s Lab | What I’m Wearing for Mother’s Day
Mother's Day is one of my favorite holidays since I take time out to celebrate with my family how blessed I am to be a mom! And, how lucky I am to have a wonderful mom and mother-in-law! Not to mention it's fun to be pampered by our kids and husbands, right? It's the one day (other than your birthday) they make an extra effort not to ask you to do too many things for them. That is, if your kids are old enough to grasp the concept. Mother's Day is also one of those heavily photographed times and moms are the star in every photo. Make sure you decide in advance (at least the night before!) what you're wearing, ...Read more.
What Real Moms Want for Mother’s Day
Sunday, May 8th is the big day! Whether you are a mom being honored by your family or you are honoring your own mom, it's a day that touches everyone. If you are planning to go to brunch or dinner, make sure whoever is responsible for making the reservation doesn't procrastinate as restaurants book out weeks in advance. Plus, it's one of the biggest gift buying events of the year. Instead of assembling our own "must-have" gift guide this year, we thought it would be fun to get ideas by finding out what a few of our favorite moms want for Mother's Day, in addition to world peace and a better world for our children of ...Read more.
Angela’s Lab | These Culottes Are Weekend-Ready
Culottes are one of the biggest trends this season, and when I saw this style it was love at first sight. The cutout design makes them dressier and special, while the white denim keeps them more casual and down to earth. Just remember with the wide cropped leg, chunky shoes are a must to maintain balance and proportion. No stilettos here! These rainbow wedges are perfect, or I'm also pairing them with white, thick-soled sneakers. This perfect-fit jersey tee is simple, letting the culottes take center stage, and the pendant ties the wedges back in to increase this look's '70s appeal. ...Read more.
Mom Muse | Danielle McPartlin
There’s nothing like having health issues to force us to make a life change, especially when we have kids. Can you remember when you last took the day off to “lounge” in bed when you were sick or tired? Not an option. When actress Danielle McPartlin, mother to two young boys, was faced with constant fatigue and weight struggles stemming primarily from an underactive thyroid disorder, she set out to find a cure. Her story and success are an inspiration to us all, plus a strong reminder that we need to be responsible for our own health! ...Read more.
