J. Crew New Arrival Favorites



I love summer but I also love fall clothing! So you can imagine my excitement when the fall catalogs roll in, especially the J. Crew catalog. Here are some of the new arrivals I have circled for Fall

1. Black Lace Top 2. Cream Quilted Vest (These are some of my favorite vests)  3. Link Necklace (Love this color!) 4. Cap Toe Flats 5. Leopard Skirt (I'm obsessed with the entire collection in this pattern) 6. Ruffled Top (Great transition piece) 7.  Suede Tassel Pumps (I'd wear the heck out of these and the other color option is hot this fall!) 8. Mini Rider Bag (I love the hunter green color but the leopard is fun too) 9. Wool felt hat 10. Striped Button Down (good staple)  11. Blush Sunglasses 12. Tortoise Link Necklace (Yes, Please!) 13. Monkey Print Top (such a fun top, price tag not so fun) 14. Camel Wool Coat (Investment Piece)  15. Tassel Earrings 16. Blazer (If you know me, you know I love my blazers. I own one this color and have worn it non stop for a couple of years! I also really like the hot pink one too!)

COLLEGE DORM DECORATING

Seeing all these amazing dorm room makeovers is making me feel old and giving me anxiety that one of mine is closer to college age then I want to admit (not even going there). But putting that aside these makeovers are pretty freaking amazing. Considering you usually have a concrete 9 x 9 cell with one window, these dorms went from drab to fab quickly!  I don't know about you but mine looked nothing like this. Although I would have killed for one of these rooms and all their monogramed goodness!  Add a couple Ben Affleck posters, a tapestry (which I used for curtains instead), some leopard print bedding and a papasan chair and that's more what mine looked like. These rooms don't have any Ben posters but they sure have some pretty headboards and decor.

Why didn't these places exist back in the day? These sites are great for making a dorm room look so un-prison like.  Dorm Decor has custom headboards, storage cubbies and all sorts of other good finds to make your dorm room homier.
