I’m a little drawn to Green and Navy this Spring and have made a few purchases in those colors recently from the J Crew Factory. Most of the new arrivals were in-store and I had received the “Factory First” email as well allowing me to preview and buy. It was perfect timing because I could see what I wanted immediately.
J Crew Factory Exploded Eyelet Mini, Navy, Sz 8 – I have been thinking of a Navy skirt for this Spring/Summer and the Eyelet Mini is perfect. I was looking for something more A-line but not having any luck. For the price, plus and additional 20% off if I spend $125 I decided I could settle for this.

J Crew Factory Sailboat Tee, Sz Medium – How adorable cute is the Sailboat Graphic tee? I see it paired with my Kate Spade White Skirt and some espadrilles or sandals. A different nautical look from the Anchor we’ve been seeing everywhere.

JCF Linen-Cotton Mini Skirt, Festival Green, Sz 8 – I have several of the retail versions of the City Mini but loved the Green immediately. It’s a linen-cotton blend but that makes it feel a little thicker and hopefully it won’t wrinkle as quickly. It’s also lined in Cotton.

JCF Sequin Lemon Tee, Sz Medium – This was too cute to pass up and will look great with the City Mini’s I have along with the Clare Cardigan in Festival Green.

JCF Clare Cardigan, Fesitval Green Sz Medium; Navy, Sz Small – I’ve already worn the green cardigan. I really needed a Navy cardigan and it was either a Small or Large as they were almost sold out in-stores.


I’ve decided this will be my color story for our Family’s trip to NEW YORK CITY this Summer!!! I’m trying to be very practical in my packing list but here’s what I have so far.
My Pinterest Board is just as bad. I can’t seem to pare down anything yet. And June will be here soon enough. My biggest dilemma is walking shoes. I will not be wearing Birkenstock’s this time. I can do well in a flat, like the J Crew Cece Flats as well as Espadrilles. Also, I won’t have much time to shop either. Gasp! Husband will probably give me half a day so I’d like to know the best area that will have what I like. I don’t necessarily need to buy anything at J Crew or Anthropologie but to see those stores in NYC will be different than seeing them here, in SATX.
I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!
