Before we move on from the Styleathon, I just wanted to look back and highlight some of my favorite moments from the last couple of months of mama-baby style and adventure. There were so many gems from each participant, but these are the ones that I just can't stop thinking about:
I think this is probably one of my favorite babywearing images of all time. I just adore Henry's awesomely cute RAWR as he and Danielle explore a breathtaking natural landscape. From Danielle's Round 2 post.
I don't know how you could watch Aura's Round 3 video without shedding tears of joy and love. To me, this entry encapsulated the most beautiful aspects of motherhood and left me feeling inspired to live life to the fullest.
I really can't get over "Miss" James and her major fashion chops. I think the super-fly, wide-legged jumpsuit she rocked in her Round 1 post was my favorite outfit of the Styleathon.
I think my heart skipped a beat when I first saw Toby hanging out with his mom, Joanna, on their first fishing trip together. Photo from her Round 2 entry.
I adore the moving narration that accompanied this wonderful video from Jen, as part of her Round 3 entry. Clearly, I'm a sucker for tearjerkers!
Even though Sharmadean (like Joanna) had to drop out of the Styleathon for personal reasons, I still look back on her Round 1 entry with a smile. I loved the candid, photobooth-style pics of her and cute Roman and the down-to-earth tips for staying chic as a mom.
Another one of my favorite outfits of the Styleathon, I loved Melisa's Round 1 post. I thought this photo was especially sweet. And it made me really really want to smoosh Blake's cheeks.
I loved Elizabeth's Round 1 post, Storytelling, for the way she articulated her new approach to collecting beautiful pieces, and the way having a daughter has influenced her style.
Natalie's Round 2 post was chock-full of New York City glam and goodness. Equal parts meditation on living the life of your dreams and picturesque postcard of the Big Apple, I got goosebumps reading this entry.
What were your favorite Styleathon moments?
Elizabeth's video was a highlight for me! I, too, loved James's wide leg jumpsuit AND Joanna's fishing trip. Great series all around! xo.

Thanks for the revisit with these highlights. Wonderful to follow these mamas & their precious babes throughout the styleathon. Also super sweet to see what particularly captured your imagination & got your tears flowing!!
ReplyDeleteI loved it ALL!!!
my favorite Sakura Bloom Styleathon moments were-
ReplyDelete1. Joanna Goddard -has your style changed since motherhood (round one of the styleathon). I loved what she wrote and that her photos actually looked like pictures of a normal every day mom running errands.
&
2 Aura Joon-to Be near you - (round three of the Styleathon). I loved what she wrote. I feel like it best describes what most moms really dress and feel like on any given day.
This is an awesome idea. Never heard of it until reading your post. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI just recently got the Ergo Baby carrier and love how comfortable it is for both myself and my daughter but I will admit I have eyed off these wraps on other women for some time but have been hesitant to purchase. Your post has inspired me to look into them...
ReplyDeleteAlso, beautiful photos.
