This super-stylish family went on a shopping play date at NORDSTROM

Matt Barnes remembers not just the time and place, but the precise outfit his wife, Shelley “Lady” Hayes, was wearing when his heart first skipped a beat. “It was a teal Betsey Johnson dress,” he recalls dreamily. “And it was pretty cool to meet the designer of that piece when Betsey Johnson became a client.” For Barnes, a photographer who’s snapped the likes of Drake and Buffy Saint-Marie, and Hayes, a designer and musician who creates fairy tale–calibre flower crowns for weddings and artists like Ariana Grande and Lights, style speaks volumes. “A drag queen once said I look like Little Bo Peep meets Janis Joplin,” says Hayes, “which is exactly me: fine bone china and rock and roll.” She’s passed that aesthetic boldness down to their two daughters—three-year-old Goldie and one-and-a-half-year-old Coco Valentine. “I thought I could make Goldie into a mini-me,” Barnes says, “and dress her in vintage jackets.” He smiles. “Turns out she won’t wear anything she doesn’t want to wear. She’s got a vision.”

To celebrate the new NORDSTROM opening at CF Sherway Gardens, we partnered Matt, Shelley and their girls with a NORDSTROM Personal Stylist. Their finds include: AG Graduate jeans ($320) and a deep blue Alpha Industries bomber ($200) for Matt; a Mini Boden rainbow knit frock for Coco; a flowing, bohemian dress from Alice + Olivia ($575) with tall Steve Madden boots ($150) for Shelley; and a cozy pink sweater with an attached tulle skirt ($44) from Pippa & Julie for Goldie.
