Friday's OOTD round up

I didn't do an OOTD post for a while. Here are some outfits I have been wearing recently:

Gallerista Skirt

My Gallerista skirt is one of my favorite J.Crew purchases from last year and I was waiting, not so patiently, for spring to be able to wear it again. I like it with denim top to offset the dressiness of the skirt. It was the stock picture of this skirt that made me purchase my black Valentinas.

Liberty shirt and Italian Boucle pencil

You have seen both pencil skirt and the shirt but not together, I think. These are the last days I could still get away with wearing the wool pencil skirt, but the color definitely helps with transitioning to spring. With the busy print of the shirt, I didn't want to add any accessories but I like the belt with it. Those belts (I have the pink one as well, see below) are great, a little wider than skinnies and very soft. 

Merci Stripe tee & Ann Taylor capris

I am very happy with the Merci stripe tee and I have been wearing it a lot. I like it with white Ann Taylor capris. I added black ballet flats and black accessories to keep it from being too summery though.

Superfine cotton pencil 

This was no nonsense all navy outfit to keep it business like. I had a presentation that day and I did not want any distractions. I did add the pink belt to make it more 'me'.

Raj Paisley pencil

Here I got to wear my Raj Paisley skirt to church. It looked good with red . I saw a picture on Rynetta's blog with pink top, I have to try that combo next time.

Cotton v-neck & Silk Indigo skirt

This cotton v-neck is not the best quality or fit but the main reason I kept it was that I saw that I can wear it with my Silk Indigo skirt. The cobalt blue of this skirt is very hard to match and I've been wearing it with navy and black but the sweater is a perfect shade for it, so for 19.99 I decided to keep it and I am glad I did.

Paintbox cardi

The above was my Friday outfit and I didn't think it was exciting but I got a lot of complements, I think people like colorful, cheerful outfits.

That's all folks!

Do you own any of the clothes I was wearing?

Do you like any of the outfits? What's your favorite?

Please share, it would be no fun without you!!!

J.Crew April Rollout Preview - New Pencil Skirts

Like I mentioned on JCA, I got an email form my PS about the new collection arriving today at Garden State Plaza concept store. These items will probably end up in other stores and online in April.  Of course, I had to go check it out for you!

I took lots of pictures and tried on quite a few things, but it is already late, so I only have time for a quick post, but I will have more soon.

These are the new pencil skirts and schoolboy blazer.

I like the red lining, very cute.

Pockets in the back

Notice that the pattern on the skirt is matched!!! That's the way to go J,Crew, thank you!

Schoolboy in 100% linen

Size 6, TTS

I am guessing the blazer may be coming in other colors, maybe in navy?

 The skirt below is the same price, fit and fabric content as paisley skirt above.

Size 4

Fully lined and TTS

I think this flower print is nice, somewhere between realistic and abstract and will go with many tops.

cute little clutches

This is what I took to the fitting room

That's all folks
