Something worth knowing about me: If I could, I would live in the J. Crew catalog, with its fun matching/clashing prints, bright colors, and carefree European vacays. I anticipate its arrival in my mailbox every, well, week (seriously, they come way too often) and page through the offerings, saliva threatening to spill from my lips. I have a policy, though—I never buy anything from J. Crew full price, as they are rather outrageous and everything goes on sale. Quickly. Seriously, if you love it, wait three weeks and it’ll be on sale. Love it, but still think the sale price is too steep? Wait another two weeks and it’ll be on final sale, with another 20 percent off. Trust me. I am an expert at this. Anyway, J. Crew just came out with their first shoe/accessories catalog and it is so pretty to look at that I am tempted to start keeping them for style inspiration down the line, much like the dusty copies of, sniff, Domino that I have on my bookshelf. Keep clicking to see some of the gorgeousness, along with obsessive gushing.

I have some beef with J. Crew this season though. Not the socks and pumps combo, though it’s not a look I foresee myself wearing. But the shorts and jackets! I’m all for mixing seasons when it’s a summery dress that you’ve layered and accessorized appropiately, but this one just doesn’t work for me. Shorts even in winter materials like tweed, or worn over stockings still look awkward when paired with heavy wool pea-coats.
