I’m sharing how I wear my Hanes bras and underwear: the boy briefs, hipsters, and comfy bras without wires – from getting ready to going out. The second installment in the series with Hanes #becomfydent.  Let’s get started, below are my 4 tips:

1. Say goodbye to discomfort. Let’s be real, most mornings, I want to stay in bed and not get into that uncomfortable ____. What is it for you? Tight jeans? Misfitting bra? A bra with an itchy tag? Take it out of your closet and bag it up. Donate the whole bag or place it in the corner of your room till you get sick of looking at it. Believe me, this works. You eventually can’t stand to look at it and then out the door it goes. Check out Hanes Ultimate Perfect Coverage ComfortFlex Fit Wire-Free Bra and Cool Comfort Hipster Panties

2. Don’t feel badly about lack of color. I own a ton of black and white. I invest and stock up on good pieces like white tops and black jeans. See them as the backbone of your wardrobe. Check out Hanes Cotton Jersey Scoop Tank (I have in white)

3. Keep it minimal. Those who follow me know that my jewelry is simple and minimal at best. Let’s be real, I’m a mom, so things get caught when I’m doing the laundry or holding a child. I like to keep it simple and not have to worry about one more thing. 

4. Take a selfie. It helps to do this before you leave the house for a last minute check of your outfit. After I take a selfie of my outfit, I sometimes eliminate an accessory, change my bag, or take off earrings. Comfort is king! Join me by sharing your comfy (and chic) look by using the hashtag: #becomfydent.                              

As a heads up, I’m partnering with Hanes for a couple months sharing how I, as a busy mom, wear comfy undergarments and tees.

2016_07_23_ShaliceNoel9-557-Edit Express has stepped it up and I’m a big fan. I usually look for items I can wear over (and over) like this striped blouse (never enough stripes) and these flare pants. Since Los Angeles doesn’t have seasons, I will still manage to find a reason to don these flare pants and layer to my hearts content.Gotta love versatile and easy-to-style pieces! I’m loving this tank from Express’ One Eleven line with super soft modal blend and a built-in choker. So on trend and under $25. Virtually a no-brainer.

Thank you so much for reading, and thank you to EXPRESS for partnering on this post!

Life is too short not to know about ASOS under $50 scores. I mean, SO GOOD. Tip: If you’re unsure about sizing, order both. You can easily return the one that doesn’t fit since there is free shipping both ways. My mailman is sweet enough to take my returns or I pack the kids in the car and drive to our post office a couple blocks away. Either way, it’s pretty easy!

2016_07_03_ShaliceNoel6-632-Edit If I were to give you any styling advice, I’d say: style an outfit around one piece. be it a stripe tee, a polka dot skirt, a blue bag, or a wrap heel. And then add in the following quality basics: denim, crisp white blouses, a statement bag and designer shoes. Even though I’m the last person to live by less is more (just look at my mess of a shoe closet), less really is more. And I hope to pass down the AGL shoes, the Chloé satchel and MCM bag to my daughters who have already put dibs on them. Just maybe I can train them to help me organize my shoe closet first.2016_07_03_ShaliceNoel6-884-Edit

Anyone who knows me well knows that I stay away from too many ruffles and neon pink, the latter of which makes me gag. However, Chloè’s new line is convincing me otherwise.  That said, I do feel more like myself when I pair these white ruffles with an edgy leather jacket and versatile tan boots. This look also works with wide leg pants and Chanel flats to dress it up.

 Sporting these white ruffles, I can’t help but feel more feminine and girly.  It’s all about options and using the same pieces multiple ways. And should you (or your pint sized loved one) spill salsa on your romantic ruffles, there’s always a tide stick.
