J Crew is my New Obsession

...sigh.  Oh, Gap and Banana Republic...how I have loved thee.  It has been a great few years, I assure you, you have run my family up some big bucks that we have finally paid off, but I think those days are over.  I have found a new love.

I have a wedding coming up at the end of the month and desperately needed a dress.  I HATE dress shopping, usually more than bathing suit shopping.  Well, that is, besides when I shopped for my wedding dress.  I have tried on too many dresses in the past week.  Finally, I gave J Crew a shot.  I know they aren't going to have any crazy party dresses but I figured I would give it a try.  It took a few tries, but once I put this winner on, I knew it.  It is not something that I would normally pick for a wedding, but it is an afternoon wedding so I wanted to pick something a) not black, b) not over the top cocktail and c) something I could wear a sweater over if it got too cold, since it will still be March.

So, drum roll please....

That's it ladies, I love it.  They didn't have this color so I got a tan and white design instead.  On top of that, I am obsessed with the spring/summer collection at J Crew.  I am going to wait another month or two, but I think I may need a few more clothes for this summer...hm, yup, I'm pretty sure.  So J Crew, I'll be back

  1. My sister is a J Crew nut. I guess I'll have to go check that out.

  2. I am a HUGE J.Crew fan. I probably own more of their label than any other. To save my budget I resist the urge to actually "shop" the store but instead head directly to their sale area. I have found some amazing and expensive pieces for pennys on the dollar. The trick is to stop in often because the good stuff goes fast. Great dress choice too!
