Meems Monday Interview with Kalyn Letizia
Meet Kalyn Letizia, the effortlessly stylish mom behind @styleherstrong! Balancing motherhood with a timeless fashion sense, she’s mastered the art of dressing her little ones in pieces that are as practical as they are polished. From beach days to backyard BBQs, she shares her go to Meems favorites, styling tips, and how she keeps her kids cool, comfy, and camera-ready all summer long.
As a stylish, busy mom of two, how does your personal style influence how you dress your children? My style is classic yet comfortable, with a bit of flair. As a busy mom, my goal is to look pulled together while still keeping up with my kids. That same balance of classic and comfort is reflected in my kids’ outfits. I want them to be able to play hard, at the park, while riding bikes, or at the pool/beach, while still looking well dressed. I also always keep in mind their favorite colors, prints, and silhouettes when shopping for them, so they love what they're wearing!
What’s one must have clothing item every child needs in their summer wardrobe? A swimsuit and some great active pieces
How do you keep outfits festive but still comfy and practical for a day full of BBQs, holiday fun, and summer parties? I dress my kids in soft pieces like linen, cotton, and activewear materials to keep them comfortable, while focusing on classic prints and summer colorways like red, white, and blue, or more playful palettes like bright blue, yellow, coral, and a pop of pink! I want my kids to be able to keep up with their friends, eat ice cream, and play in the dirt without worrying about their clothes feeling itchy or uncomfortable, or whether they’re staining their outfit with a big bite of a watermelon wedge.
With summer approaching, which Meems swim styles would you choose for days spent by the water? I love anything by Kenny Flowers, and I especially love that my whole family can match in their styles. I also always adore Pink Chicken’s beautiful prints!
What’s your favorite summer family activity? It’s so hard to pick just one! We love long days spent at the pool, playing golf, tennis, or pickleball together, and simply enjoying each other’s company in our backyard with a good patio dinner on the weekends.
