tunic crazy.

tunics. I'm kind of obsessed right now. Out of the blue, for no reason I am stocking my closet with tunics.

This one I wore the day we travelled to Napa. Paired with white shorts and brown Tory Burch sandals it looked great and kept me casual but put together.

I took this Tory Burch tunic as a swim suit cover up for over my two piece white Phillip Lim suit.. yup I did it. Went for two piece :)

This tunic arrived while we were away, I had ordered it in white.. I know these are going to be closet staples so they're around for years!

I picked up this non tunic but perfectly light and airy top at J Crew..

and while I was there I tried on this tunic.. I loved it.. but for now it stays at J Crew ;)

fall must haves, with Jenna Lyons, J.Crew and Chatelaine

"a leopard print something"


I'd choose flats..cute!

"a chambray or denim shirt"

I have my eye out for a great denim shirt. This is a boys denim western shirt, maybe the 14 would fit?! It has the right amount of faded, yet substantial 'ness'

"a big oversized soft sweater"

I think this Nili Lotan cable knit fits the bill just perfectly..

"a pair of colored pants"

Oh please..I would adore these cropped wool trousers

This months Chatelaine magazine has a great write up about the beloved president and creative director of J. Crew. Two others on Jenna's must have list are a crisp pressed shirt and a longer skirt. I know I'll be adding the jean shirt, oversized sweater and maybe even a hint of leopard..and the colored cropped trousers are divine!

just so you know

I ordered these batik saunter shorts a while back, and our weather has been terrible, so I'm wearing them for the first time today. Made of silk with pockets that are fabulous, these shorts are pretty awesome. Just so you know :)

sad face

As you know my dear friend is getting married this July. After alot of searching I found myself loving this little Jillian heel from J Crew. I love the tiny heel! To my dismay these cuties cannot be found anywhere in a size 9, I even had a jcrew personal shopper look for me. So sad.. my search continues...

two things for sure

that I am thinking about from the jcrew catalogue that just showed up.

1. the new cafe pants.. so perfect

2. this rather fabulous one piece bathing suit.


It's just the right mix of cover and reveal :)
