Mama Linda's Picks
Rachel’s mom Linda, has been an inspiration for Whimsy’s since day one. This Mother’s Day, we’re celebrating her, shinning a little light on the style icon herself. Scroll on down, shop Linda’s favorite Whimsy pieces and get to know her a little bit.
Linda in the Eden Crop + Finn Skirt
My favorite whimsy piece (of all time) is really hard to choose. Currently I wear the Stevie two tone cream set everyday. I love to pair the Norah pants with the Lennon Crop Top and the Lena top in Lady Print. BUT if I have to choose the one thing that's most versatile for my life is the Rachel Dress. Please bring her back in more colors! My current favorite style has to be the Eden Top in Mauve Floral, because it’s super flattering and makes me feel feminine.
Well it was actually my idea! In my career I was an entrepreneur, I owned and operated a chain of hair salons called Total Concern. It's always been our family mentality to start our own businesses. So we encouraged Rachel to build her own.
