j to the crew

am loving the latest j.crew catalogue. skinny belts, lush ruffles, chic cardigans and hot pink ankle socks are popping up on every page. tell me this, who among us is about to sport hot pink socks to the company christmas party? although.. i am bold enough to make my to do lists in red sharpie on top of all the pretty pictures just to have an excuse to hang them up.

the olive dress and galleria dress are top on my would-love-to-wear list. i love a classic basic dress to wear forever and ever.




the mens section is dreamy too; boots, flannel shirts and watchbands to dream about.

I'm totally in love with the new J.Crew catalogue too! I love those ruffles everywhere and how they pair Converse with suits. Don't think I'm bold enough for those ankle socks quite yet...

You know, lately I've felt like J. Crew has gotten a little too Emily Gilmore for my taste, but those dresses are totally awesome. Might have to give my catalogue a second look.

That ring in the right hand corner looks like a ring I have of Great grama Bagley's, always thought it was quite ugly, will have to get it out and reexamine it!

I'm with you Marta, I like to keep things a bit more classic. Has more staying power. I'm looking for a new dress to wear to my son's baptism....hmmm, you've given me some ideas!

I am loving the Olive dress. If my belly wasn't growing an inch a minute I'd be very very tempted to pull out my credit card.

I have the hardest time finding dresses and these two are so cute. thanks for the heads up.

now i just need to find the cash that fell out of my wallet that would pay for this.

Love J. Crew's stuff -- too tempting when their emails come through with their favorite pics!

I love JCrew. I just looked there the other day for the first time. My sister is getting married in Dec. and we were trying to find bridesmaid dresses. We couldn't find anyhting that would work, but I loved looking through their stuff anyways. Very cool stuff!

2 gorgeous picks! I would have to go with a no on the socks as well.. but makes for a great visual pop!

i love that all jcrew pieces are classy and that most are timeless (not just what's currently hip and cool)!

to wear forever and ever.
oh yes. that is my idea of a good find too, mart.
these beautiful dresses keep popping into my head! i would so love to wear them or, better yet, a cheaper version of them.

ps. the to-do list in red! so that's what i've been missing! love it. thanks.
