it’s a girl thing

Last week’s Wedding Wednesday was for the boys and now it’s all girl talk.

Keeping with the navy and gold colour palette, I rounded up my favourite J.Crew items from their girls line. Girl Thing

Today’s Wedding Wednesday is for the boys!

It is no secret, I love J.Crew, and their wedding section is full of eye candy perfect for our Navy by the Sea wedding. Lets explore.

First up, the little dudes. It is rare to find a large collection of adorable boy clothing – usually the girls get all of the attention – but at our wedding, it will be a boys club with plenty of them running around who’ll look handsome in one of these outfits.

bundle up

Autumn is here and we are holding off on turning on the thermostat. I bet we are not the only ones who treat this annual ritual as a game… how long can you bear it? To participate, you need to be strong and you must bundle up. With this in mind, I gathered up some fall-inspired fashion (aka my current wish list) that makes it almost okay to accept the brisk temperatures.

But before I fill up my fictional online baskets, have you heard about a capsule wardrobe? I landed on this site and the idea intrigues me. Should I? Could I? I know there are clothes in my ‘closet’ that I’ve hung on to but do no wear and since I don’t actually have a real closet, it has become more evident that I am waisting valuable real estate. I think a capsule wardrobe would be a great way to minimize what I own and then decide what I really need. Here is Unfancy’s fall capsule wardrobe. Nice, right? If I decide to give this a go, I will be sure to let you know. In all honesty, I think I need to focus more on purging … not purchasing.
