Now and Then — Daughters are like gold!
This is a Fashionista Event Opportunity, and is hosted by Still Blonde after all these YEARS and Modly Chic.

Mother Daughter Outfits
My daughter and I have always loved clothes. We have bonded over clothes shopping many times (she’s like a life-size Barbie! I love to dress her up!) She adores vintage clothes and bargains, just like I do. We excitedly call one another when obtaining a killer deal or superb clothing find.
These gorgeous pieces from Monroe and Main make it easy for both of us to show off our individual style, yet still look great together.
Monroe and Main Pieces chosen for our Mother’s Day Outfit shoot: Kelly is wearing the Gypsy Ankle Strap Sandal by Fergalicious ($80), Shelley is wearing the Artist Dream Dress ($80-90)
SHOES! SHOES! SHOES!
Now, I wear the same size shoes as my beautiful daughter but there is NO WAY I could have got her to give these blue wedge sandals by Fergalicious to me. She put them on the second she got home from college and wore them back to college after we did this shoot. Her boyfriend loved them which made these fantastic Fergalicious shoes from Monroe and Main an extra big hit!
You can’t go wrong with Monroe and Main shoe selections for spring, they literally have 100s of pairs. Just look at some of these beautiful choices for spring and summer.
I had no problem choosing a beautiful dress for myself. The Artist’s Dream Dress from Monroe and Main will undoubtedly be my go to dress for Spring. It has every color of the rainbow in it! I can dress it down with a jean jacket as I did here or I can wear it with a cashmere vintage sweater as I did on Easter! Both looked great! Make sure to look at all of Monroe and Main’s spring selections.

This is a great post and fun topic. When young, girls and moms often dress alike. I like the idea of bringing that to older girls/women, too. I would enjoy seeing another post, maybe where you both wear the same shirt but play it two different way or shoes or the same blue color. A way of dressing alike but still putting your own spin on it.
Great suggestion Sherry. Shelley
I love that you two are so close. Clearly you’ve helped her develop a great personal style. It’s nice that you have so much to bond over.
It’s true Mary. We are very close. It’s wonderful to have such a vivacious child. Shelley
Love all the beautiful shoes! Those blue Fergalicious wedge sandals are gorgeous! So nice you and your daughter can have Mother-Daughter bonding on clothes!
I too lo those blue shoes from Fergalicious. It is great that your daughter and you can share your love of clothes.
I am loving the mother and daughter look
OMGosh! besides the hair you both look identical in the face! Both very pretty!
Thanks Minta. The Chief Blonde
