A Joyous and Jolly Holiday with JCrew

Come on, let’s get JOLLY + JOYOUS this J. Crew holiday season… and that starts with one of my go-to retailers for everything cozy, festive and fun also known as J. Crew. Not only do they stock their shelves with incredible finds for us ladies [casual styles, workwear, dressy occasion finds and the best in accessories], but it’s long been a shopping destination of mine for the entire family–hubbies and daughters included!

Today I am here to share THREE stellar ensembles worth noting… cozy winter finds that are classically designed for those of us who want to look put together, but practical enough for all of life’s crazy days ahead, especially those throughout the holiday season. Not only is JCrew known for their cozy sweaters–perfect for hibernating–but be sure to check out their festive tartan for celebrating–you had me at plaid!! However you want to holiday this season, they are here to make it happen, and ready to make you look good all along the way… and of course at the end I’ll leave you with a festive little JCrew Gift Guide for added good measure and easy shopping for everyone on your shopping list, too!

Demi Boot Dark Jeans | Striped Poplin Shirt | Pink Lady Wool Coat | Saturday Sneakers with Leopard Detail

Let’s start things off with all the goodness of PRETTY IN PINK. You know I just had to score this Pink Lady Italian Boiled Wool Coat [wearing size 00] because of the colorway… talk about a statement piece! Stunning and stylish, it’s the epitome of feminine chic with an oversized collar, large front patch pockets and tortoise buttons for added flair. It runs TTS and is exceptional in person and also comes in baby blue, heather grey, caramel and black as well. I paired it with this Ruffle Collar Cotton Poplin Shirt [wearing size XS] in red and white stripe. The staple style anyone can wear, but updated with ruffles for a little contemporary flair for good measure. For the bottoms, it’ll come as no surprise that I opted for my pair of go-to cropped jeans… the Demi Boot Denim[ wearing size 24]–they literally go with everything, have plenty of stretch, offer a figure flattering button up front and I love the uncut hem. In proper fashion, I opted to grab accessories to finish off this OOTD with these Leopard Detail Saturday Sneakers [run TTS] as well as the colorful Devon Camera Bag… JCrew makes sure you’re ready to tackle the town, all the way from your head to your toes!

Moving right along, let’s talk workwear… those staple pieces that you can bring out at anytime to look office chic, but still ready for a fun date night when the time is right as well! For this snazzy ensemble, let’s start from the bottom and work out way up: the Hayden Kick Out Crop Pant in Wool [wearing size 00] is a classic pair of tailored pants but made for winter wear in a versatile wool material. I love the fit of these with slight wide leg design, a winning way to show off some super fab shoes, like my Green Embossed Leather Pumps. The perfect holiday green with details that will make these a favorite for seasons to come in this evergreen colorway that makes a POP. For the top layering, I started with this Ruffle Sleeve Top Satin Top in Crepe [wearing XS] which is a blouse every woman needs in their wardrobe. The slight ruffle makes it a bit fancy and fab, but the styling ensure it’ll last! I then wrapped up in my new Double Sided Scarf in Houndstooth Dot [a total two-in-one] which will keep you warm this winter and makes a great gift option for a fashionable friend, too!

Finally, we can’t move on from this ensemble without sharing the goodness that is my #1 coat recommendation year after year… so good I have this Chateau Parka in 4 colorways, yep, that’s how amazing it is! It’s a versatile, dress you up or dress you down outerwear that features gold zipper detail, a refined a-line silhouette, and a removable faux fur trim hood. You won’t find a better winter coat, I promise you that!

Finally, let’s get COZY with all things made for running around town and tackling that to-do list. Navy is ALWAYS my favorite netrual so I have a feeling many of you out there will go GAGA over this soft and sweet OOTD, too. I started things off with this Ivory Mockneck Sweater in Supersoft Yarn [wearing XS]– the coziest sweater you’ll want to snuggle in all season long. I then paired it with this Polartec Sherpa Fleece Jacket [wearing XS], which is something you need to add to your Christmas list like NOW. I then got a little creative and paired these Dreamy Jogger Striped Pants [wearing XS] and I am good to go! The icing on top?? A toasty warm Faux Fur Ribbed Beaniethat makes day two and day three hair totally appropriate and stylish = thank heavens!
