3. Must have closet staple?
This is a long list:
The perfect pair of jeans
A White t-shirt. Classic and can always be dressed up.
Black dress pants
LBD (or whatever color. Just something that makes you happy and you could wear for many occassions)
Cardigans
A blazer
A button down blouse
A Suit
Black Pumps
Flats
My Favorite would be a tie between jeans and cardigans.
Hmmm. This is hard since I love shoes but I will go with what you will most likely see me wearing on a daily basis(well not at work)...
Rainbow Flip Flops |
5.Best clothing deal you've ever gotten? (sale or amazing find)
Well, I would probably go with the dresses I have gotten from the J.Crew Warehouse Sales. There were two sales in the Chapel Hill area while I was in college there. One the January of my Junior year and the other the fall of my Senior year. The first year the dresses were $15 a piece and the second sale they were $20 but for the J.Crew Collection of dresses that was an amazing deal(sometimes over $200 a piece). I love to find deals on clothes( FRUGALISTA right HERE) but I think that was probably the best deal. But I also got my suit from Belk's this spring from $300 to $99 so I consider that one a good deal too.
Here are some of my J.Crew Warehouse dresses in action.

6.Style you'd love to try?
I'm not that adventurous in my style. I have always loved classic and simple so I would love to try something a bit more daring like a splash of neon here or there but nothing crazy.

Happy July!! Love all the pictures and the inspiring quotes! :)
ReplyDeleteHi! Found you from the link up. My style is super classic too. I love all the stores you mentioned.
ReplyDeleteI pinned the saying about books the other day. It's absolutely true.
Cute blog. I'm following you. I'm at necklaceslaughterlove.blogspot.com Congrats on graduating!
I am in love with your graduation dress! That is such a pretty color on you and how perfect to match your university's color :) So cool!
ReplyDeleteLove all that you mentioned! I'm a very, VERY frugal shopper too...I (rarely) pay full price for anything ;)
ReplyDeleteThose J.Crew dresses are adorable! That might be one of my best finds too- we got cute little dresses from J.Crew on super, super clearance for bridesmaid dresses for my best friends wedding last year. One of my favorite pieces!
Just like you I love marshalls. I am a bargain shopper to the core! I do love kate spade accessories but have never been able to spend the money for rainbows, in my heart they are just too much for flip flops. BTW I have my own preppy blog and just started following you from gfc. Please take a look at my blog. I always do comment 4 comment and look forward to reading your posts!
ReplyDeleteTj maxx and marshals are my favorites!
ReplyDeletecome over and visit nichollvincent.blogspot.com :)
have a great day!
Love your graduation dress sooo pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love your J Crew dresses and wish they had sales like that around me, but have never heard of any! They are super cute and classic and can definitely last a long time since they aren't a "fad" looking dress! I'm jealous! I'm also frugal though and LOVE Marshalls and TJ MAXX! Designer clothes on a dime, only way to go! :)
