Current Wants: J. Crew

I have become a recent lover of all things J.Crew. I didn't really fit their style in the past - I felt it to be too grown up, too proper, too classic, too preppy. But as I have gotten a bit older and my personal style has evolved, I have found that the reasons I stayed away from J. Crew in my twenties are the reasons I am drawing nearer to it in my thirties. I love their simple & colorful crop trousers, their lightweight sweaters & cardigans and all the ladylike touches infused in their inventory. Here the latest items I am crushing on.

 

Collection Cafe Capri in Jade Jacquard

 

 

 

Hothouse Floral Dress

 

 

 

Maddie Ballet Flats

 

 

 

Bow Coat

 

 

 

Crystal Burst Bracelet

 

 

 

Chiffon Dot Top

 

 

 

Collection Sequin Tweed Pencil Skirt

 

 

 

Collection Sasha Snakeskin Pumps

 

 

 

Cafe Capri in Tiny Dots

 

 

 

Fall Floral Crystal Necklace

 

 

 

There are about a million other items that I could have added onto this list - like this, this and especially this....wowza! - but then this wish list would be more like a wish catalog.

 

And I don't have an unlimited stash of cash to make this wish list a reality.

 

 

 

Oh J. Crew, why do you have to be so expensive?

 

 

My Not So Fancy-Schmancy Wish List

So yesterday I shared my wish list for all things fabulous but not so affordable for me or those who wish to spoil me with presents. Today's wish list is a little bit more wallet friendly. Husband, pay close attention! ;)

Farmer's Market Baskets

Clarisonic Cleansing System

iPod Nano

Zumba Fitness for Wii

Monogram Pendant

Navy Striped Blazer

And if you follow me on Instagram (@theprettyfactor), you might have seen these glittery Steve Madden platforms that I am kind of obsessed with!

So there it is...a bit of my wish list this year. More affordable than yesterday's list, no? Of course all girly things like clothes, jewelry, perfume and the like are always welcome!

Let's see what Santa (aka the Hubs) brings me!

My Fancy-Schmancy Wish List

I have two wish lists when it comes to Christmas -

the list that consists of items I can only dream about because no one can or will buy them for me and the list that is much more attainable and realistic.

Today I share with you the fancy-schmany items that I covet the most!

Chanel

Christian Louboutin

Hermes

Tom Ford

Oscar de la Renta

While there are many more luxury items I could place on my wish list, I held back from listing them all because it's no fun to get a girl's hopes up, right?
