I bought the Selvedge Chambray Shirt right before the holidays, hoping it kept with the longer shirt trend J Crew has been promoting. Turns out it just covers my booty which is longer than my other denim and chambray shirts. I have worn it several times already and love it under the Abstract Fair Isle Sweater. I took my normal size 8 in this shirt and it fits TTS.


I have had the Cashmere Shawl-Collar Sweater since Holiday 2009. It looks great over ruffled blouses like Silk Frances Cami from a few years ago. The Pixie Pants in Tuxedo Stripe are last year’s version but you can still get this year’s version. Though they need it, I haven’t had the chance to get them hemmed. Every time I wear them I am wearing boots so I just fold them up. I did wash them in the machine and not dry clean them. I put them on delicate in cold water. (I have a front-load machine.) The leather stripe came out all wrinkled and crumpled and I thought I had ruined them. After they dried I pulled on that part to see what would happen and they went back to normal. Especially after I put them on. I do wear them quite a few times before washing and I don’t know how many times I’ll be able to get away with it before something happens to the leather. Hopefully, I’ll get my fill of them by then. 

The Anonymous Ism socks are from last year’s men’s collection but there are new offerings this year {here, here, here}. Mine have deer on them and since they are for men, they are a little bigger but much cozier too! I am finally wearing my Tortoise Crystal Pendant and paired it with an older J Crew necklace, maybe the Pearl & Box Chain. {Que Bella} I forgot how much I liked the necklace. I’ll have to be sure to wear it so it’s more noticeable next time.
I hope you are all staying warm this weekend! I am hoping to make my niece’s basketball tournament tomorrow, with maybe a stop at the outlet. I haven’t been there in a while. Kate Spade and J Crew are calling to me.
Have a Great Day!

I ordered a few jewelry pieces as some last minute Christmas gifts. I’ve really been into the pendant and layered necklaces and the Tortoise Crystal Pendant Necklace looked like it would rotate well with my other pieces. The tortoise piece is actually very subtle. I also like the small hints of pink in the stone and accent. This ones a keeper…for me.

The other two items were a matching set – the Glacier Necklace and the Glacier Bracelet. I like the sparkle of both but didn’t realize the necklace is more of a choker at 15 inches in length. I have it on the last jump ring as well. I don’t like anything that close to my neck so it definitely won’t do as a gift either. If it had been two to three inches longer it would have been perfect.

With the necklace being returned, I am now on the fence to keep the Glacier Bracelet. Like I said above, I like the sparkle. I also don’t have a bracelet like this. It’s not too tight around my wrist either. I don’t really have any complaints about it. I think it will be a good addition to my jewelry box. I am always looking for a sparkley bracelet for parties and weddings. 

I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas. I am hosting Christmas Day and have just a few more things to do today. Luckily, I already went to the grocery store so everything else I need is minor.
Merry Christmas!
