part of the crew

i am often asked to define my personal style, and well,

i find it quite a daunting task.

my style is somewhere where feminine-romantic meets 70s rock meets professional preppy with a few other things mixed in

{like i said.. kind of a daunting task}

i am often a jeans and t-shirt girl, and i like oversize accessories to spice it up.

there is definitely a hint of old school rock to my style...

think more almost famous and less ashlee simpson

and i adore mixing menswear pieces with frills,

especially blazers, vests, and button-down shirts.

as i move forward with my career, i find myself drawn more to structured pieces and less to trendy tees and tanks

{although i do still love the trendy tees and tanks}

i don't think i will ever find one store or brand that is 100% my style,

but the most recent jcrew catalog, east of eden, is definitely part of the fray.

i adore the romantic pieces, the pastel color palette, and the oversized, layered jewelry.

i would pair the pastels with a bright jacket, clutch, or peep toes.

i will definitely be perusing the catalog pages for inspiration come cooler weather.

way to go, jcrew. good show.
