Frills for Fall: Part I
August 23, 2011 § 2 Comments
The J. Crew Fall Collection is all caps AMAZING. Due to this, we are experiencing an extreme love-hate relationship. I guess they didn’t get the memo about my BUDGET. We’re working on it…mass clothing giveaways would really help your case, Crew (cough, hint, wink).
Giving a girl who loves shopping a budget is like throwing a boy scout out into the wilderness with limited supplies. We become resourceful and start to think of different ways to get where we want to be. Keeping your wardrobe current and escaping the wrath of a grizzly bear are essentially the same thing, by the way.
So maybe you can’t afford a whole new wardrobe for the new season, but there are ways you can transition what you already have to stay current and not look like your heading to the beach in October. One word: accessories. I’m drooling over the Crew accessories like the bear is drooling over that boy scout we threw in the woods a few sentences back. Let’s take a peak at some faves:
Stone Storm Necklace $78
This reminds me of something you would pick up at a vintage shop. And the pop of color is great to brighten up a autumn closet.
Flapper Fringe Necklace $58.
I pretty much love all of the pendents Crew has, but am especially obsessed with this one because of its versatility.
Deco Bow Bangle $58
It’s a bow. It’s sparkly. If you need any other reason to buy it, we’re not friends.
Mini Link Bracelet $58
This is the perfect bracelet to bring some glamour to any outfit. BAM!
Stay tuned for more ways to spice up fall outfits without breaking the bank! Spice…makes me think of cider. Delisis.
I love that first necklace! And I agree, fall offerings are out of this world!
I’m not sure if I like the “Flapper Fringe” from J Crew or the similar style from Madewell (that I don’t see online anymore!).
