Things have changed a lot with my body since 2009.
That was the year I gave birth. I was not blessed enough to have a body that “snapped back” quickly not was I lucky enough to have the weight simply fall off. I couldn’t breastfeed due to surgery (trust me, I tried hard) and finding time to workout was nearly impossible.
With all of that said, I now have a body that had gone through two pregnancies and many other surgeries. Although I want to make changes—I am pretty okay with my body type. Is it drastically different from my pre-baby body? absolutely. However, I’ve adjusted and I really purchase clothing that not only compliments my body type but look really good too. (This applies to EVERY body type btw)
Evereve
A few weeks ago I was introduced to Evereve, a brand of clothing specifically geared towards moms. Check out what they are all about below:
Evereve is a contemporary, national fashion retail store and e-commerce site dedicated to empowering moms. Evereve is one of the fastest growing retail companies in the US, with a successful e-commerce site and unique boutique experience where moms with kids of all ages can shop with ease, with one-on-one stylists who understand their body type and lifestyle. There are 74 stores currently, and it is on track to operate 80 stores by the end of the year.
From the moment I stepped in the showroom I was in love. You know the feeling when you find something that you didn’t even know you needed? That. I hadn’t been shopping for myself much since I quit my job, in fact I’ve donated a LOT of my clothes because you can usually find me in my most comfortable pair of jeans and a sweatshirt when I go pick my kids up everyday.
I am woman enough to admit that there are days that I get SO caught up in work that I show up to the school looking all kinds of crazy. Some days I show up looking like a decent human because I had a day event but most days—not so much. The Evereve brand was like a breath of fresh air—super cute comfortable clothing that looked really good too!
Moms trust Evereve’s curated look and in-store stylists to help them find a style that’s modern, on trend, and yet makes them feel confident and sexy. Evereve’s selection is carefully curated each season with the lifestyle of a modern mom in mind. The designers and buyers behind selecting the brands that go in store also create exclusive collections for women with various styles. Evereve curates its assortment from about 100 brands, including Free People, Sanctuary, Bailey 44, Junk Food, AG, Paige, Superga and Sam Edelman. Whether she’s a mom with a rocker glam edge, an urban sophisticate or has a California boho chic style, Evereve meets the demands of every mom’s shopping need.
What I love most about the brand is that they really have gorgeous dresses, skirts and accessories that are perfect for my age group. I find sometimes even when I shop my favorite stores, I find myself wondering if I have gotten too “old” to wear it. The Evereve style is right on point!
Plus when they have a Michael Jackson shirt with my birth year and a leather jacket on a mannequin, they GET me.
Trendsend
Keeping in mind a mom’s busy lifestyle, the team at Evereve also introduced Trendsend, a monthly styling service with six to eight handpicked pieces based on body type, taste, lifestyle and budget. With free shipping and returns, customers only pay for what they keep. Each box has a personalized note from Evereve expert stylists about how to mix and match the pieces to create two to three full outfits.
How perfect is this? I love a good subscription box and this is perfect for me! I’ll admit I’m not the most adventurous dresser but if I get a little direction on a questionable piece I am golden! Plus what is better than having people shop FOR you?!
Evereve has many brick and mortar locations as well as a online store. Go forth and shop mamas!
How often to you shop for yourself? Do you look decent for child pick up? Have you ever tried Evereve?
Hi! I’m Nellie. I am a busy mama of three, wife to my high school sweetheart who loves to cook, workout and stay organized! I love to share helpful printables, the best recipes and fitness tips for the modern mom. I strongly believe that every mom can feed their family well, take proper care of themselves and have fun along the way! Read my story.
Get comfortable and be sure to come hang out with me on social. Don’t grab your free fitness journal before you go!

I think as a mom my clothes cost to much and its cheaper to buy kids clothes at least that's what I tell myself because I never shop for me lol

I don't shop for myself nearly enough. I love the idea of this. Someone once told my friend that I always look perfect at school. This cracked me up because I felt like a hot mess. Then I realized that a good coat and a good hat can hide a lot in cold weather. I want to check this out!

OK, why have I never heard of this store. But yet, all the clothes and accessories you showed, I would totally have tried on and probably bought! Seriously going to have to check them out now. Oh and btw my post kids body is most definitely way different from my pre shape wise. So, totally get that and love that this line is geared towards moms, too ;)

A few of my friends have raved about this store and, there is actually one pretty close to where I live but I have yet to try it out. Now, I HAVE to!! Thanks for the (as always) honest review.
