There are several reasons I personally find myself looking up to Joanna Gaines. From the peeks into her life shown in her television series Fixer Upper, to being a follower of her brand, Magnolia, to subscribing to her print publication, Magnolia Journal, and beyond, I’ve learned that she has a lot to offer in the realms of motherhood, work ethic, and approach to life. Yet another way she brings inspiration to me and others can be found hanging in my closet.
Ever since becoming a certified Fixer Upper fanatic back in the day, I’ve admired Joanna’s wardrobe. Her style can be summed up in two words: simple and elegant. While she may be known for the elements she adds to her real estate projects, her style tends to emulate the same effortless functionality, comfort, and class with understated pieces that withstand the test of time—AKA, the ultimate capsule wardrobe.
Often styled around staple pieces, Joanna’s wardrobe is one that’s perfect for all moms. From everyday errands and kid corralling to business meetings and dirty jobs, Joanna’s style works through it all. The best part? She’s a certified clothing repeater—meaning many of the pieces she may inspire us to buy can be styled several ways instead of worn only once. For the ultimate mom uniform style inspiration, check out these nine Joanna Gaines outfits and pieces to recreate the looks yourself.
