Section: Fashion for Her

As always, I am constantly on the search for easy fashion. By easy fashion I mean that I'm a very busy momma and I simply dont have time to iron, press and constantly dry clean tons of various fabrics, so my wardrobe must be expertly chosen by myself. And for the most part I get it right. But it is a stuggle to avoid a jeans and teeshirt combo on sunny days. Introducing the OVERSIZED KAFTAN!!! HORRAY!!!!
The above kaftans are a collection from australian designer Camilla Frank, Catherine Zeta Jones and Khloe Kardashian are huge fans of her oversized wearable styles and bold prints. These styles hide a multitude of lady lumps and bumps and are extreamly forgiving to those over a size 14. Allowing every body type to look and feel glam. See below how Mrs. Kris Jenner wears an identical kaftan to her daughter Kim Kardashian, proving that at any age the Kaftan can be rocked. Nicole Sherzinger looks sooo cool and comfy strolling through NYC wearing this seasons must have. Khloe K looks cute and vintage teaming her Kaftan with a gold head band. And Gwen Stefani puts her Kaftan Collection to great use covering up her massive baby bump!
Just like Gwen Stephani above has adapted the look for "Maternity..Mom on the Run Chic", My hectic social life ensures that I must run the kids to Summer Camp with a bump, meet friends for coffee's, attend daily business meetings and be prepared for glam events at the drop of hat. These are not my problems alone, this is the soundtrack of every modern woman. And during this season it is very difficult to lock down an easy look that allows one to look glam at all times througout the day. But with these oversized kaftan, I can stay cool, comfy, comfident and uber glam all day.

Use simple accessories to transform a plain white kaftan like the queen of vintage/hippy chic Nicole Richie has done or team your kaftan with huge sunglasses, a big hat and chunky jewelery and wedges to ensure this look is fit for a summer B.B.Q or Wedding, just like A List Stylist Rachel Zoe has done below.
