Whether or not I'm a chic mom is up to you to decide, but I am a mom, so that makes me at least 50% qualified to be writing this roundup today. In honor of spring's impending arrival, I thought it would be fun to scan every section of Reformation.com to find the best picks under $250, all of which allude to that elegant aesthetic seemingly everyone (including myself) is into right now.
Below, you'll find 32 pieces—from dresses and matching sets to casual tops, sweaters, and my absolute favorite jeans—for the "Ref girl" but also the "put-together woman" in all of us. Am I speaking your language? Simply keep scrolling to get started shopping. After all, if I know anything, it's that the brand can't ever keep its best new items in stock for long.
For when you want to wear an easy top but still feel a little dressed up.

Dress it up or down.

I live in this exact pair of jeans.
I'm not only obsessed but also inspired.
BRB, I'm planning a fancy lunch.
This sheer cardigan strikes the perfect balance.
The shorts-and-belt combo is perfect.
