I LOVE CREW

I love the J. Crew Fall 2010 collection and found this pic from their fall campaign particularly inspiring. I've already exhausted the pink lipstick, but this babe is seriously making me want to go platinum (even though I vowed I'd NEVER go there again. Disaster?). Moreover, it's the styling I love. Who can make that many pins and brooches look so effortless? I'm up to the test. I need a serious thrifting and vintage date in my near future to stock up on some jeweled animal pins and oversized flower brooches. Who's in?

Edit: Was just directed to Jane's blog, Sea of Shoes, by a lovely reader. She and her mom styled a blazer with their amazing pin and brooch collection after being inspired by the same J. Crew lookbook photo. Check it out here!

  1. I've never been a fan of J. Crew.. I guess it's not so much my style.. but, since last year's collection, a lot of garments caught my eye.. and when I saw this year's fall collection I loved it.. they've totally taking a new fresh approach into younger/hip girls... that jacket in the picture.. with all that brooche war happening on the shoulders... awesome!

  7. Ahh, the decadence is overwhelming in the best way possible! I'm kinda thinking I'll start rockin' this look early this year, considering that LA is far too chilly for summertime, anyway!

  13. This is a lovely campaign. I also liked the Hermes one. It's not like this one, but it's still lovely. I used to blog at FabBlab, but this is my new blog: www.seren-dip-a-tea.blogspot.com

  15. It's not my style and a little bit too much, but it looks great and the colours are beautiful together. I guess it could work if you're the right person wearing that outfit.
