Spring Uniform

April 22nd, 2010

I’d be happy dressing in slight variations of J.Crew’s entire spring line from here on out. A crisp blazer, t-shirt, tangle of chains and you’re out the door. Of course I’ll make sure things don’t ever get too monotonous by throwing on different pants (rolled up khakis one day and boyfriend jeans the next), switching between oxfords and wedges and occasionally doing my hair differently.

    Agreed. I could wear the blazer/t-shirt/necklace combination every day. Not only is the look adorable, it’s just so comfortable. Great necklace finds, too!

    OMG! i wore an outfit just like these yesterday!! whoa! hehe love the blazers!

  • http://heart-of-light.blogspot.com Rachel (heart of light)

    This is one of those looks I just cannot pull off! I always look totally ridiculous in a blazer. Not sure why, as it looks great when I see it on other people.

  • http://heartoffashion-k.blogspot.com/ Katie

    So cute, I have been trying to find ways to incorporate my blazers into my spring/summer wardrobe these are all great ideas!

    Love it! The t-shirt, blazer, tangle of necklaces, and jeans is my casual Friday staple. Works with heels and flats, skinnies and trousers…what’s not to love?

  • http://www.fablesnfashion.com Sirene

    I’m loving that Forever 21 slashed top! Argh, I just wish they would come to Australia :(

  • http://www.fashionweed.blogspot.com fashionweed

    interesting picks! I like the necklaces and the white ruffled top!

  • Tameena

    my two heroes, Keri Russell and Serena Van der Woodsen, would totally give you props for this! so cool!

  • http://stylenuggets.blogspot.com MarchMusings

    Totally agree. Even though J Crew doesn’t ship to NZ I shamelessly copy their looks as often as I can.

  • http://bonbonrose9.blogspot.com/ Kristin

    F21 does it again. I swear, it’s ridiculous how many killer accessories I’ve found there. And that Kaine tank is divine!

  • http://moosette.blogspot.com Moosette

    Agreed! Most of my everyday staples are J Crew – love them!
