Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mommas, Grandmas, or ‘Baba/Bubby’ ‘s (as my mom is now called). Swipe👉🏼 to see some old photos of me as a teeny nugget with mom and grandma.
2 shout outs here: 1. my Grandma was Bea Brilliant😉😍 she was a seamstress, and made her own clothes, and us gorgeous princess gowns for Halloween growing up. (Hence, Be Brilliant Styling💕💕)
And, this year I have to give my mom an extra special shout out for being the ‘OG’ stylist in our family. She taught me about color, fit and fabric long before I ever took a fashion class. I still remember some of the epic shopping sprees she took me on whenever I needed new stuff, or when we would hit the sale racks and she got everything for our immediate and extended family and friends. She would always tell me what worked and what didn’t with love and honesty. We still get into way too detailed conversations about things like ‘which shade of navy’ something is...
Today the mommas in our fam were feeling under the weather, so after brunch I took the opportunity to go around my parents house and take snapshots of old photos
Every year my appreciation and awe of my mom (and all moms) grows as I learn more and more how amazing moms are. (I mean, hello, they give us all life, as if that wasn’t enough...)
From our ‘Brilliant’ family to yours - wishing you a Happy, relaxing, warm and fuzzy Mother’s Day. ✨💕
PS thanks to the ladies at for the gorgeous arrangement and card. She loved both! 😍😍 @ Jersey City, New Jersey
