Hello friends! It’s been quite the weekend as we celebrated Adrian’s birthday on Friday and had ourselves a mini date night on Saturday night! I surprised Adrian with tickets to see Hamilton but unfortunately came home to a super sick Mei. Sunday was mostly laying low as Mei had some sort of stomach bug and hasn’t been able to keep any sort of food down. I’m at home today with the little one and fingers crossed that we’ll be back to normal around here tomorrow!
I made a semi-large purchase from J.Crew a couple of weeks ago in preparation for my Hawaii trip and while I haven’t had a chance yet to finish my trip posts yet, I wanted to go ahead and share a try-on so you can take advantage of their current 40% off site-wide sale (use code SALEUPGRADE)!! J.Crew has always been one of my go-tos when it comes to chic style that’s classic yet has a few accents of current trends mixed in! Read on for my April haul picks.
April J.Crew Sale:
J.Crew A-Line Polka Dot Dress
Dress: J.Crew A-Line Polka Dot Dress (00P)
Earrings: Rachel Parcell x Nordstrom Chandelier Earrings
Shoes: Steve Madden ‘Jelly’ (5 / TTS) – on sale! (also here)
I love everything about this dress from the polka dots to the slimming A-line profile to the flirty fluted hem. The neutral colors make it a great spring option that can be styled for work or play in my opinion! The material is a medium-weight thickness and actually does an impressive job of holding everything in (I didn’t need any Spanx!). Perfect for graduation, Mother’s Day, wedding, or even just brunch — snag it now as sizes are running out! I’m wearing 00P and would say it runs slightly small in the torso area — size up if you’re a C-cup or bigger!
J.Crew Lady Jacket
Jacket: J.Crew Lady Jacket (00P / size down) – (also in blue, black) (rainbow tweed also in dress and skirt options)
Top: J.Crew Factory Scallop Cami (0P / size up)
Bottom: Express High Waisted Sash Ankle Pant (00 short) – (similar, similar)
Earrings: Rachel Parcell x Nordstrom Chandelier Earrings
Shoes: old (similar, similar)
For the last few years, J.Crew has released a tweed “lady” jacket and it’s ended up always being one of my favorite purchases of the season (see previous year’s jackets on me here, here, and here). I was so excited to see this year’s as I’ve been wanting a lighter colored one for some time now! The fit on this style is slim although personally, I size down for an even more fitted look. This is another one that will definitely sell out soon so snag it if you see your size!
J.Crew Point Sur Midi Dress
Dress: J.Crew Point Sur Midi Dress (00) – (similar)
Earrings: Rachel Parcell x Nordstrom Chandelier Earrings
Shoes: Steve Madden ‘Jelly’ (5 / TTS) – on sale! (also here)
I hope you’re not tired of this dress as I’ve posted it no less than 3 different instances (see my sunset beach post here) — I’ve just worn it to death and can’t get enough! I am in love with the print, the flattering fit-and-flare fit, and of course those pom poms and tassels!
J.Crew Gelato Graphic Tee
Top: J.Crew Gelato Tee (XS) – (similar)
Bottom: Express High Waisted Sash Tie Skirt (XS) – 40% off! (similar)
Shoes: Steve Madden ‘Survive’ (similar under $50, love these)
Earrings: Baublebar ‘Vitina’ Heart Drops (also in ivory)
J.Crew is my favorite place to shop to cute graphic tees and I seriously wear them all. the. time! Layer it under a blazer (shown here), pair it with a cute skirt (love this paperbag style for a casual option!), or wear it with jeans for the weekend! I wore this tee on my Hawaii trip and actually got so many people complimenting me and / or asking what the words meant — they all had a laugh when I explained they were gelato flavors! 😂
J.Crew Perfect Rain Jacket
Jacket: J.Crew Perfect Rain Jacket in sundrenched peony (XXSP / size down)
Top: J.Crew Gelato Tee (XS)
Bottom: Express High Waisted Sash Tie Skirt (XS)
Shoes: Steve Madden ‘Survive’ (similar under $50, love these)
Earrings: Baublebar ‘Vitina’ Heart Drops (also in ivory)
If your weather is anything like what we have here in Texas, April is unpredictable at best! One day we’ll have sunny 80-degree temperatures, and next day it’ll be in the 40s with thunderstorms and even hail! Rain jackets are a must and I couldn’t resist this cute pink one from the J.Crew sale! I actually took this one on my Hawaii trip and it was a must-have! Perfectly lightweight, cinched at the waist to give a little shape, and washes very well (I’ve already washed mine twice and still looks like new!). This one comes in 7 different colors too in case pink isn’t for you!
J.Crew Leopard Sweater
Top: J.Crew Leopard Sweater (XS) – (similar)
Bottom: Abercrombie Ripped High Rise Super Skinny Jeans (24 short/TTS)
Belt: Gucci Double G (size 75) (amazon dupe)
Shoes: Steve Madden ‘Feather’ Loafers (5.5 / TTS)
Earrings: Baublebar ‘Vitina’ Heart Drops (also in ivory)
I love everything leopard right now so had to order this leopard sweater to try out! The wool fabric is super soft and nothing like sweatshirt material — definitely dressy enough for the office and slightly fitted too! This sweater is another versatile option that would be great styled with jeans for the weekend or even black slacks and a blazer for the office!
A few other styles that caught my eye (all on sale!):
Hope you have a happy Monday!
