J.Crew's latest Unmatchy-Matchy line

Followers of this brand are referred to as the cult of J. Crew.  Marissa Webb, head of women's design, and Jenna Lyons, president and executive director are on a winning streak! They've continued to capture a vintage flair that gives the wearer of these clothes a distinctive effortless look, well put together, with smashing color combinations, patterns and textures. We're sInGIng...lala..loVe...iT!!! Going against the grain J. Crew has set themselves to burst into the fall scene with a palette of tangerine, lilac, chartreuse, baby blue, etc. Skirts are hitting mid-calf or longer, puddling on the ground.



Jenna Lyons, J. Crew President and Executive Director.
Did you see her interview when she was on Oprah? We got to peek into Jenna's world~this woman has that extra something, the "it" factor. She interprets fashion in a different light, she is a genius! Many can design, but to execute the cut, and wearability of a garment in a fresh way takes another level of talent. 



 Clean lines and unexpected  color combinations that surprisingly work well together.


Wouldn't heads turn if you showed up in this?


 There's something for everyone...a little more understated...


New skirt length for fall...


What a great travel look! (except we'd need to replace the heels with J. Crew's new leopard driving moccasin-remember our article on "The Well Travelled Woman"?)


Wow~love it!


The pops of color~details~perfection. 


This screams Kelly Wearstler.

It's good to stop in regularly at J. Crew. They always have interesting jewelry and accessories too. Kudos on this recent showing.
