I love you, I love you not...

I have always had a bit of a love/hate relationship with J. Crew. I am always so pumped to get their catalogs in the mail and as I flip the pages my wish list grows as I oooh and aahhh over every look. But then when I actually go to the store I am always disappointed by how few things I actually want to buy. Their styling is fantastic and the brand has gained major fashion cred in the past few years thanks to the genius creative direction of Jenna Lyons. But their fits...eh not usually so hot. As per usual I am loving everything in their Spring look book (in particular the bright candy colors, the side ponytails and red hot lips, and the fabulous accessories) so hopefully this is the season of turning this relationship  into a love/love situation!

  3. i'm obsessed with jcrew, but you're so right on the fit. i usually pair their pretty (but loose) blouses with skinny jeans or wear them with a work suit. love the cardis and shorts and the pencil skirts fit me pretty well. everything else is a toss-up.

  8. I completely agree with you. I love J.Crew clothes, but it's so stressful trying to find the right fit. I once tried on the same pant size in the same style but in two different colors and one was significantly larger than the other!
