J. Crew February Catalog
February 5th, 2010 by Sara
I squeal with glee once a month when I open my mailbox to find the newest J. Crew catalog – that happy day came earlier this week, just in time to lift my spirits amidst all this rain. These catalogs are more than your average cheesy “catalog posed” happy couple, with cheesy twinsets and cheesy backdrops. Much more.
To me, the J. Crew catalogs are always like a mini fashion magazine without the endorsed articles. The styling is right up Charleston’s alley, and I end up dog-earring every other page, causing my clothing wish list to grow exponentially. This month was no different, as the modern preppy pages took us to the streets of Portugal in the spring. Sensational colors, cuts and classics fill every page. Ruffled skirts in rose, chicly bedazzled tees, perfectly cut to flatter ankle pants in staple as well as fun colors, amazing jewelry combinations, and of course cardigans galore.
Speaking of cardigans: they don’t need to look “grandma” or dated. Choose vibrant colors and patterns, layer it over a feminine blouse or dress, and you have an easy look for any occasion. J. Crew’s Jackie cardigans are without a doubt office staples at least twice a week at Southern Protocol. Especially for the late winter weather here in Charleston, hovering somewhere between coat and thin top temperatures, a cardigan is a necessity in every woman’s wardrobe.
Trot on over to Charleston’s own boutique J. Crew (at 264 King Street) to check out all the latest fashions – if nothing else, the incredibly aesthetically pleasing clothing and displays will lift your mood this weekend!
