Since I'm building a work wardrobe, I'd love to snag a pair of the Minnie pants (lusting for the hot pink), their epic No. 2 pencil skirt, and some work-appropriate tops, from silk tops to crisp bitton-downs.

Oh, the shoes. And the jewelry! And come on, the BAGS!

Can I buy everything? :)

Final Giveaway Day! CLOSED

Today is the last day to enter to win a $100 J.Crew giftcard!!

I love J.Crew because I am just as likely to walk out of there with some great staples (think comfy tees, flats in every color, pencil skirts and blazers for every day of work and beyond) as I am to leave with something shiny, sparkly and all around fabulous. (And helloooooooooooooooo shiny, sparkly and all around fabulous is my jam duh!). I equal parts think of J.Crew as a simple, classic look as I see it as a fun, quirky look.

(I've been traveling and taking only the most heinous of pictures lately so please excuse the following!)

 

  

Seriously, I know the pictures are legitimately awful but I couldn't miss snapping this head to toe look of all sorts of amazing J.Crew pieces. Is there anything better than a crisp J.Crew button down? Only if you get one with a jeweled collar obvs! And a sequin pencil skirt? Swooon!

Giveaway Day Two: closed

I said I was going to be sharing all my favorite things about J.Crew this week and if you know me at all, or have read through this blog at all... you saw this coming...

I love J.Crew because of Crewcuts! And the fact that it means Gwen and I can match!!!! There is nothing better in Bronwynland than being twinners with my mini me! Nope, I don't think it is cheesy, nor do I think it's too much. I think matching Gwen is fabulous!

J.Crew makes it freakishly easy for us to match. They make so many prints and pieces in both mom and mini mom size and I of course am obligated to buy all of it. #duh.

Get the pineapple pieces for women here and a similar skirt here and kids here, and of course the cutest matching swimsuit for kids here and women here, here and here. Now if only J.Crew sold the confidence to model swimsuits on my blog!

I also love Crewcuts because it is PERFECT for Gwen. Crewcuts happens to fit her pretty darn well, has totally quality construction and is kid proof!

I spent the first few years of Gwen's life on the edge of a nervous breakdown watching her get milk, snacks, poop etc on baby Dior and cashmere blankets and then dying every time she outgrew a Burberry coat ($695) after two wears, or took the toes off her handmade shoes when she crawled around the playground. Having been a child who was raised by a stern, clean, prim and proper mom I know all too well the not funness of not being able to PLAY without fear of getting dirty. We had to figure out a solution that was both adorable - why have a mini me if she isn't adorbs right? (kidding... mostly!) - and yet that was tough enough to withstand a kid jumping, running, eating and rolling in dirt and grass. Ok, ok Gwen isn't a total beast, but she is tomboy. Crewcuts is washable, affordable and Gwen has yet to rip through the knees on a pair of jeans, or stain a top beyond my washing!

Stop. Please. I didn't pose this kid. She just watches me way too much. She did my signature pose and of course I had to laugh and then do it behind her.

So, now for day two of my J.Crew giveaway! I have picked a winner of yesterday's $100 gift card (to be announced Friday) and now it is time for someone to win today's!

To enter: make sure you are a follower of this blog, and then click through to see some of our fav Crewcuts pieces - if you don't have a mini me to dress alike with the grown up pieces are still totally covetable, I just use matching Gwen as an excuse to buy more stuff - then comment below what your fav is!

*for an extra entry you can share a link to this blog on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Pinterest (note in your comment where you shared it). For a third entry you can also follow me on Instagram!

Matching pineapple tops and her Crewcuts shoes of course match my Kate Spade pair!

Giveaway Day One: closed

One of my favorite things is when someone tells me they loved something on my blog so much they went and bought one and that they love it! Aren't all the best things so much more fun when you get to share them with someone?

Sooooooo... let me share one of my not so secret favorite things.

J.Crew.

I absolutely love J.Crew. Every time a new catalog comes it is all "ohhh hello lover" and then a little bit of folding every page and circling every piece and then a little dying over how much it all adds up to. But c'est la vie.

J.Crew looks great on everyone. Seriously now. I am not at all like the J.Crew models - all perfect skin and androgynous cool good looks. Nor am I simple and clean and chic in my styling. Yet, I love J.Crew. My mom loves J. Crew. My daughter loves Crewcuts, and if that isn't the three most polar opposite people all vouching for one company than I don't know what is!

I adore that I can go into J.Crew and walk out with a whole look, a cool piece, any number of basics and wardrobe staples, and some of the best jewelry and shoes. There is truly something for everyone.

So, now here comes the sharing part... I am going to share some of my favorite J.Crew pieces, and I have already shared my J.Crew secret  - I shop there and you should too. AND for the next three days while we talk J.Crew each day I am going to give away $100 gift card!

HURRAY!

One reader will win today's $100 gift card to J.Crew, to enter the giveaway just follow the blog and leave a comment below about what you'd buy at J.Crew if you win! To get a second entry share a link to my blog and in your comment tell me where you've shared the haute mess!

Some examples of my love for J.Crew everyday!

Last week I went to a baseball game and wanted to look casual and stay cool in the hot weather. Everything I wore was from J.Crew, and I'd like to think that even though I am not typically a casual dresser it worked out ok!

I also find myself wearing a lot of J.Crew to work. From basic pencil skirts, button downs and silk tops, to just a fun pop of jewelry on a work dress J.Crew never lets me down!

 

This basic Ted Baker work dress wouldn't have been a complete outfit without the J.Crew necklace and matching bracelet!

J.Crew also jewelry has also gone with some of my fancier outfits as well. Last week for a dinner I wore one of my favorite DVF dresses and my newest J.Crew necklace for a more put together black and white evening ensemble. I told you - J.Crew stuff fits no matter what they occasion!

Now tell me... what J.Crew pieces would fill in the basic gaps in your wardrobe? Or what fun pieces would you pick to add a pop of color or jewels to your everyday outfits?
