Well, I think I'm going to get this post in just under the wire, still technically Friday. I'm writing this from my mom's house in Maine, Chris and I drove this evening (he's over the border on new Hampshire visiting his family). I'm so happy it's the weekend! I've got a few fun things planned, and in-between I'm hoping to hit up some of the local church thrift stores to see what I can find. Today was so beautiful, I'm seriously so happy it's spring! I loved today's outfit...
Jacket: J.Crew (15.00 outlet)
Button-up: J.Crew thrifted from Savers (6.00)
Shorts: J.Crew (12? 15? outlet)
Tights: We Love Colors (10.00 with coupon)
Shoes: Target (6.99 sale)
Necklaces: Dolly&Boy, H&M, J.Crew
Sunnies: Fred Flare (11.00)
Button-up: J.Crew thrifted from Savers (6.00)

I'll admit, I've woken up so late every day this week, 8:30 this morning! I clearly need to go to bed earlier. Either way, I was very comfortable, this felt like a good, laid back, semi-casual Friday outfit. I'm going to address the amount of J.Crew in my wardrobe: I love J.Crew, the colors and cuts are perfect for me, plus I'm a size smaller in their clothes than any other brand (hey, I take any complement I can get, even if it's from a "Small" tag). The drawback is that I can rarely afford J.Crew. So half of this stuff was bought three years ago when we still lived in New Hampshire and Chris worked at the outlet, and the other half was found a various thrift stores around New England. I still make sure to stop by the outlet when ever I'm home, you know, just to look. Ok, It's now 12:05am and I just broke my rule for not posting on the weekends, happy Saturday.
I hope everyone has a great weekend, and to those of you who celebrate Easter: Happy Easter!

wow 8:30 am is late for you? that's early for me, maybe I need to rethink my priorities
tess, haha I wish 8:30 was early for me, but i have to be at work by 9!
Cute! The top and necklaces are so fun. I really love your sunglasses too.
i like this look a lot! :-) happy easter!
i really love the high bun on top of your head. i think it is awesome and wear my hair like that most days but i also add a plait. this out fit is super cool i love how it is rather relaxed but yet still looks so darn wonderful.

Plus, that necklace with the skull head is pretty rad. :)

Loving this! The shorts are an unexpected touch that really makes the entire ensemble. And the sort of updated, cropped trench-like coat is wonderful, too.
I also have a love of all things J Crew with no real ability to buy from the store. And no amazing thrift stores finds, so you make me very jealous on a near daily basis!
hey there dear!
well here's to another blog I'm keeping my eye on...I looved your blue J Crew skirt with the life-savers pattern I WANT IT, it's pretty awesome.

Such a great look, love how casual yet stylish it is! Happy Easter/Weekend to you too :)
really great outfit!

Love that trench! I have my eye out for one for spring...

JCrew is the best because it lasts forever and they have killer outlet stores! I am completely in love with your elephant necklace.
The hair is what makes this for me. LOVE IT! And isn't that the latest "hair how-to"? Because I've been wearing my longandcrazy hair like that a ton for the past month or so. Thanks for that!
Have a sweet and happy Easter weekend!
Such a great outfit! You pick the most wonderful backdrops for your pictures -- the turquoise is an incredible contrast to your outfit.
I love J Crew too.
The skull necklace you are wearing is awesome!
Have a great weekend :)
I love the print on the shirt and the layered necklaces! A great Friday ensemble. Have a lovely weekend!
Love the color and print combination here! Fabulous- and you got the JCrew at a STEAL.

you look sooo chic!
i love this look for you, and that elephant necklace makes it a million times better! i love how perfect your hair always looks in that effortless bun as well :)
i imagine new england thrift stores are packed with j crew! ;)
Hey, I was just letting you know that I'm tagging you in my little "looks I love" sunday post! Hope it's okay :]
Great outfit! That store is a little pricey for me too so it is always a bonus to find J. Crew (or my fave Banana Republic) at the thrift store. Usually still in prime condition because their clothing is so well made. Thanks for the comment on my blog about the skirt, I need to invest in some versatile undergarments! Hope you are having fun with the fam!
great outfit!
XOXO
