I did not realize that I was wearing all J.Crew until I was typing out the outfit details, ha! It’s funny when that happens, isn’t it? It makes sense that the items from one brand would go together well. I find that happening a lot when I wear Madewell, too.

I’ve wanted to wear this sweater and these flats together for well over a year. I actually did wear them last June and we got outfit photos, but the lighting was so terrible that I never posted them. It was then that I realized shooting in direct sunlight is a baaad idea. Anyway, the grey in the sweater matches the flats perfectly, so it was clearly meant to be. You may have noticed that I’m wearing yet another pair of the J.Crew ‘Cece’ ballet flats. I own five pairs because they are just that wonderful (and I’ve featured all five pairs in outfit posts this spring!). All of mine are the discontinued “Made in Italy” version. I haven’t tried the newer version because I’ve heard bad things about them. I’m already dreading the day that mine wear out. :(
