My 63-Year-Old Mom Knows What’s Cool—34 Items She’s Eyeing for Summer

They say, “Mom knows best.” Although I am sometimes hesitant to acknowledge that claim, I generally find it to be true. My mom somehow always knows if I’m going to regret any of my choices, but she still lets me make my own decisions so I can learn from them. More specifically, she knows how to put together a chic outfit and can predict what will be considered cool in fashion—sometimes before I even do.

Being in the know about the top fashion trends comes naturally to my mom. Not only did both her parents work in the fashion industry (my grandfather at Macy’s and my grandmother running her own accessories company), but my mom also worked in the field as an e-commerce stylist. You could say she loves fashion and has inspired me to feel the same.
