Mommy Moments with Sasha Marina is BrownStyle Magazine‘s new column that encourages moms to practice mindfulness and create a soft life that speaks to their souls. From adventurous family trips to products that make parenting a little easier, learn how the mother-of-two is navigating motherhood one day at a time.
Being a mom is a non-stop journey of love, lessons, and lots of multitasking. Although it is a beautiful journey, it can sometimes be a lot, especially when you find yourself having to navigate both diaper duty and a demanding career!
In my opinion, moms deserve everyday essentials that make life smoother. This is why I love products that are both easy to use and highly functional. (It also doesn’t hurt when it’s stylish!)
Whether you’re treating yourself to a little joy or treating a fellow mama, I’ve rounded up three fabulous women-owned brands that bring self-care and ease to the motherhood experience.
Evelyn And Kate Tote: Carry Everything You Need In Style

Let’s talk mom bags. You need one that holds EVERYTHING and looks good doing it. The Westie Original Tote from Evelyn and Kate checks every box! It’s roomy, durable, and has personality for days.
Featuring beautiful artwork of founder Kate’s West Highland Terriers frolicking through a sea of roses, this tote is equal parts playful and practical. Crafted from premium canvas with genuine leather straps, the deep interior pockets can easily handle your laptop, snacks, wipes, lip glosses, kid toys, and more.
Magnetic Me Pajamas: Snuggles Made Simple

Midnight diaper changes? Been there. Fumbling with snaps while half-asleep? No, thank you.
That’s where Magnetic Me makes a much-needed appearance. These ultra-soft pajamas feature SewSafe™ magnetic closures that make dressing your baby quick and quiet.
Bonus? The brand has matching sets for moms, so you and your little one can twin in comfort and cuteness! In my opinion, the prints are next-level adorable. We’re loving the Disney ‘UP’ collection with its dreamy, whimsical vibe.
Belle Aroma Candle Warmer: Your At-Home Escape
After a long day of everything, a mom deserves a vibe reset. Belle Aroma delivers just that with its The ScenTrio Petite Warmer (Buy On Amazon) and no-mess fragrance tarts.
Founded by Monica Hadley, this home fragrance brand offers luxe, mess-free ways to unwind.
I love that the warmer’s ceramic design blends seamlessly with the décor of your home. The tarts also last up to four times longer than regular wax melts and use less heat, making them a safer, greener choice.
It’s giving cozy, spa-like energy without the clean-up.
So go ahead, treat yourself (or another amazing mama) to something that says, “You deserve the best.”
