J. Crew You





This outfit has a very J. Crew-ish vibe to me, which is ironic since nothing I'm wearing is actually from J. Crew. Oh, life. How you amaze me.

I don't know what else to say about this outfit. It just is. The dress might actually be a skirt. I'm not sure. Apparently, it can be both, which is fine with me. Although I might not be wearing it at all anymore because, on this particular day, it nearly cut off my circulation because the top part is very tight elastic and is too small for the ole girls.

In case you were wondering.

HOUSEKEEPING STUFF:

* A giant thank you (and an extra giant thank you to Ally for hosting the fabulous contest!) to all of those who voted for me for the POTY. Apparently enough of you did, because I won! And I couldn't be more honored.

** Love Your Body Day is October 19, 2011, and I'm not quite sure what I want to do for it. Last year, I did the blogger interviews, but I'd like to change it up this year to keep it fresh. If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them. Otherwise, I was thinking if I could get enough people on-board to publish a "Why I love my body" post on their own blogs that day, I could link them all here. What do you think? Would you be interested in something like that or not? Let me know in the comments!

  18. I have never heard of Love Your Body Day, but I am really excited about it.

    I happen to adore this outfit. I'm sorry that it suffocates your boobies. I probably wouldn't have that problem because I have the chest of a 10-year-old boy.

  20. Beautiful yet simple outfit- I love it and am still gushing over your new hair (plus you look so tanned, maybe because I'm so ghostly but still!) Yes please host a link-up for Love your Body Day- I would definitely be interested in participating!

  21. the chambray shirt totally feels like crew, and i think that is because old navy is always copying everything that crew does. i've seen it with my own eyes. and i'm not complaining.

    Chic on the Cheap

  23. I think it's the chambray shirt that does it. I wore one last week and felt the same. But hey it's J Crew so I'm not complaining!
