J. Crew Spring Collection

Ever since J. Crew debuted their spring collection on January 31st, I've pretty much been drooling over everything. I've complied a collage of my favorite items and am sad to report the total cost is $950. Obviously I'm going to have to par down (by a lot!) and choose a couple must-have items, and wait for others to go on sale. And let's not even discuss all the gorgeous shoes I can't afford.

cabochon necklace / plaid shirt / pink tipped blouse / denim shorts / colorblock cashmere / ribbon necklace / mint tee / striped & floral sweater / mint gingham shirt

The only thing I know I will purchase is the cabochon necklace. At $45, it's affordable, I don't have many short necklaces, and hello? It's mint! I'll also probably get the tee, because it's a perfect basic, and only $30. I am trying to layer more often so one of these button-downs are a must! I feel like the strawberry mint plaid will be most versatile with my existing wardrobe. I love how the shorts are slouchy and not too short, it may be a little too premature to purchase them now for full-price. And as much as I love the colorblock cashmere sweater, it is just too expensive at $248. I'll have to wait for the sale on that one.
