Designers such as Rag & Bone, Marc by Marc Jacobs and Phillip Lim showed sporty, active styles that are ideal for moms.

Geometric color blocking

Gometric color blocking

Inspired by last season’s color-blocking trend, designers are taking it to the next level this year by making this spring’s fashion trend bolder and more interesting. BCBG, Narciso Rodriguez and Victoria Beckham all have color blocking in major geometric shapes and patterns. These styles are great for moms because of their bright colors and fun shapes — and kids will love it, too! Just be sure to choose styles that are chic and not inspired by the Hot Dog on a Stick uniform.
