Ladies, Mother’s Day is in two weeks, but fear not because I’ve got the perfect solution if you’re doubting what to get that special mom in your life, and as an added bonus, for yourself as well. A few days ago, I shared via my InstaStories that I have partnered with JCPenney and took you along with me while I picked out a few items.

This must-have maxi stripe dress was one of the pieces for me, and I loved it as soon as I saw it. The fabric is so soft, lightweight and its vertical pattern is one of the most flattering there is. I used a belt for a more fitted look and to accentuate my waist a bit, but I plan to share a few more looks with it. In fact, I packed it for the second part of my trip, which is Greece. Appropriate right?! I thought so 🙂

There are a few ways it can be styled and that’s what I also took in consideration when purchasing it. Another look I am picturing is with a blazer for a more office-appropriate look. As a matter of fact, this dress is not maternity, which is something I am trying to avoid buying the least possible. Because I won’t be able to wear maternity clothes after my pregnancy, I am looking for items that are versatile and could fit afterwards.

Chicas, el Día de las Madres es en dos fines de semanas, pero no teman porque tengo la solución perfecta si tienen dudas sobre qué regalar a esas mamás en sus vidas, e incluso, para ustedes también. Hace unos días, compartí a través de mis InstaStories que me había unido con JCPenney y las llevé conmigo mientras elegí algunos artículos.

Este vestido de rayas fue una de las piezas para mí, y me encantó tan pronto cuando lo vi. La tela es tan suave, liviana y su diseño vertical es uno de los más favorecedores que hay. Utilicé un cinturón para una apariencia más ajustada y para acentuar un poco mi cintura, pero ya tengo planeado compartir algunos looks más con el. De hecho, lo empaqué para la segunda parte de mi viaje, que es Grecia. ¿No piensan que es perfecto para ese clima? Eso mismo pensé 🙂

Hay algunas maneras en que se puede combinar y eso es lo que también tomé en consideración al comprarlo. Puedo imaginarlo con una chaqueta para una apariencia más adecuada para la oficina. Al igual que no es de maternidad, y eso es lo que estoy tratando de evitar comprar lo menos posible. Solo porque no podré usar ropa de maternidad después de mi embarazo, y por eso estoy buscando artículos que sean versátiles y puedan quedar después.

As for those mommies in our lives, I picked out these stripe espadrilles (they are also available in black, tan and pink). They have the perfect heel (not too high and not too low) to wear all day long during spring and summer outings. I also picked out this dress which I can see my mother-in-law styling with a denim jacket or a chambray top tied at the waist. And this top also made it as a gift. It’s matching maxi ruffle and pencil skirt is also available. I love buying separates for myself and as gifts because the outfit combinations are endless with and without its matching piece.

And ladies, if your mommies like jewelry as much as mine, #JCPenney has a large array of good-quality pieces at affordable prices. I purchased this personalized necklace with her initial and birthstone which I know my mom will love. If, however, your gift recipient prefers fashion jewelry, oh boy! You will have a hard time picking from the many trendy and chic accessories you will find.

Which of these pieces would those mommies in your life like? Jewelry, matching set, dress or espadrilles? Let me know and share your thoughts in the comment section below. And don’t forget you can head to your local JCPenney store or JCPenney.com to get the latest styles.

Happy shopping!

En cuanto a esas mamás en nuestras vidas, elegí estas alpargatas de rayas (también están disponibles en negro, rosa y beige). Tienen el talón perfecto (no tan alto ni bajo) para usar durante todo el día durante las salidas de primavera y verano. También elegí este vestido, en el cual puedo ver a mi suegra vestir con una chaqueta de mezclilla o un top de denim atado a la cintura. Y esta blusa también lo compre como regalo. Como conjunto pueden adquirir la falda ajustada y maxi con el mismo estampado de flores. Me encanta comprar estos tipos de conjuntos para mí y como regalos porque las combinaciones son infinitas con y sin su pieza correspondiente.

Y chicas, si a sus mamás les fascinan las joyas tanto como a la mía, #JCPenney tiene una gran variedad de piezas de buena calidad a precios asequibles. Compré este collar con su inicial y piedra natal que sé que a mi mamá le encantará. Sin embargo, si a la persona que le vas a regalar prefiere piezas más temporales, les resultará difícil elegir entre los muchos accesorios modernos y de moda que encontrarán.

¿Cuáles de estas piezas serían perfectas para esas mamás en sus vidas? ¿Joyas, conjunto de flores, vestido de rayas o alpargatas? Déjenme saber y compartan sus ideas en la sección de comentarios a continuación. Y no olviden que pueden dirigirse a su tienda local JCPenney o JCPenney.com para obtener los últimos estilos.

¡Felices compras!
