#WEARINGWHILDEN MOTHER'S DAY FEATURING: PIPPA + GILLIAN ENGLERT

For Mother’s Day this year, we wanted to celebrate all the wonderful mother daughter combos that shop at Whilden! At Whilden, we pride ourselves on having a collection of clothing that’ll appeal to every member of the family. So, we spoke to mother daughter pairs to learn more about their personal style, their “go-to” outfits and how they’d spend the perfect Mother’s Day in Chapel Hill! Today, we're chatting with Pippa and Gillian Englert!
