This week, I was in JCrew (my current muse) and these were the first two looks as you walk in the door. I must say, I was a little shocked to see a jean jacket, with jeans, and a chambray top. It seemed a little over the top to me and at the same time absolutely amazing. They have a way of doing that. What do you think about this look? Do you think you could (or would) pull it off? I think I may give it a go. I already have most (though I am buying this top tomorrow) of these items in my closet, so it wouldn’t be difficult to pull off without spending a dime. Let me know what you think!

I’m also totally in love with this dress right next to it. Isn’t it so beautiful! I am a huge fan of dresses with sleeves. I usually get a little chilly and this is perfect for that little bit of chill to keep you a bit warmer. Or, it allows for a fur vest or something else over it. So beautiful.

And while we’re talking about JCrew, I’m obsessed with this bag. Yes. I want another bag. Lord help me!

I hope you know I’m only posting photos like these so you can live vicariously through me. One of my friends suggested I do it, but if it’s bumming you out too much, tell me. But I remember one year, the first week of February, when I was not working for myself, that I was in the office freezing my num-nums off and realized half the office was on vacation. And that was it. I went home and told Bob that we were going to get out of dodge the first week of Feb from here on out because in my opinion, it’s the worst. And while it didn’t happen right away, for the past 3 years, I’ve made quite sure of it. So, make your plans now!
