Browsing through the sale section on the j.crew website today I came across these a-dorable items:

I have always loved this little “Frenchie Slicker”. Just couldn’t get any cuter!

How precious is this clutch? LOVE!!

This shirt is simple, but the flower on the collar just adds a little touch that is so classic. I can just picture it with my dark trouser jeans. A-mazing.

Today I purchased my first one-piece swim-suit since the 8th grade. It’s super adorable and from j.crew: 2 things I require for most of my wardrobe. I decided to get the suit because it was on super-sale on the j.crew website. Awesome! Now, I have been wanting to get a one-piece for some time now, I could just never find the right one. I went last year with Hannah and Ali to try some on at L.L.Bean and boy was that a disaster. To put things simply I looked like I was twelve and wearing my old ballet leotard. I thought black would be slimming and flattering, right? Wrong. So after that experience I gave up on the whole one-piece idea for awhile, until my mom offered to buy me and my sister each a suit for the summer. I looked on the website for one I liked, but could not make up my mind. Plus this was pre-summer and all of the suits were close to one-hundo dollars. For serious. I could not bring myself to buy something I will only wear 3 months out of the year (only on the weekends plus that one luscious week in CC) for such a steep price. So up until now I have been making do with my last years suit, which is fantastic by the way (also j.crew), but I’ve still been yearning for that cute one-piece I’ve had in the back of my mind ever since they came back into style. Well, today I was randomly browsing jcrew.com when I came across this suit:

Who loves wearing headbands? I DO! I just think a headband adds a little pop to any outfit, inevitably making the wearer look adorable. And who doesn’t love to look adorable? The headband is such a classic look too. So timeless.

This headband, worn by Gossip Girl’s Blair Waldorf, is particularly stunning (I’m obsessed with the dress too!). The beautiful pink orchard headband by Jennifer Behr unfortunately costs $225… so I think it’s a little out of my price range. Boo.

The J.Crew headband to the right is more realistic for me as far as price goes. It’s from crewcuts (and it fits!) and is super fun! I wonder though, can I pull it off? It is pretty extravagant, which kind of makes me nervous. But it’s just so… adorable. I want it.

This tortoise shell headband is almost a daily staple for me, although it’s not exactly the most exciting of the bunch. It’s just so classic you absolutely cannot go wrong. My only complaint with headbands would be the headache I sometimes get when I wear them all day. I’ve found that the thinner ones are less uncomfortable, but some of the thick headbands are the cutest. I’ve recently become a huge fan of the “scarf” look,which is essentially a headband made to look like you wrapped a pretty scarf around your head. So fun and great for a day at the beach when you want to keep all the wispy’s out of your face! Hooray for the headband!
