I'm super excited to be linking up with Franziska and Whitney this week for
These two are a couple of my favorite style bloggers because they have such a similar sense of style, shop on a budget, and are about the same age. (And, even better, Whitney is also a teacher!)
Today's theme was tops... Since I don't have a very good way to take outfit photos, I've decided to go the Polyvore route, but I tried to use mostly items that I actually own (or very similar).
I decided to go with my J.Crew colorblock tee for today for several reasons... I love this shirt and own a few variations of it. Plus, I feel like if you don't have this one yourself there are a lot of "knock offs" of it popping up in stores all over now. I missed out on getting it at the retail J.Crew store last year, so I was quick to snatch it up when I arrived at the J.Crew Factory a couple months ago.
This shirt is super versatile, which is why I wanted it so much. I saw a lot of cute styling ideas online and knew it would get a lot of good use! My 5 ways include 2 dressier options, 1 in the middle, and 2 casual ideas. (I've also paired mine with my black blazer and denim jacket for additional layering.)
I am hoping to snag one of these striped/color-blocked shirts soon! They are just so fun and versatile!
ReplyDeleteI'm kind of obsessed with them! I have this one from the J.Crew Factory, a blue and orange one from the regular J.Crew store, and a yellow and navy one from JCP! I totally regretted not getting one last year, so I was super happy they came back this year!
DeleteLove the looks you put together! This is such a great and versatile top that never looks boring!

Oh, She Dabbles
Thanks! It's been a great top and I'm excited to continue styling in some new ways as the weather warms up!
DeleteI have a similar top that I got at JCP a while back. I haven't worn it very much--but I am glad that I have some fantastic inspiration! Thanks for joining in on our link-up! :)

I have the navy and yellow JCP version... It hasn't gotten as much wear as this pink one, but I'm trying to style it in some new ways based on the ways I've worn this one!
DeleteI'm so glad you choose to join in - I was tempted to make a polyvore set for the pants challenge too because I think it really allows you to think out of the box, ya know? I really like all of the combinations you come up with - I hope you wear all of them in real life soon! and maybe tweet them :)
ReplyDeleteI've worn the middle 3 looks, plus once a couple times with my black blazer and denim jacket. I'm even wearing my orange and blue version of this shirt right now! (And posted a pic to Instagram!) :)
