I knew the moment I saw This J.Crew Striped Popover, I would have to have it--but then again, I knew everyone else would, too! Classic & fresh, it's a staple that will stay in your closet for ages. With that being said, I wanted to spruce it up a bit & make it stand out. Solution--the monogram! What better way to add a unique touch than slapping on a "Laverne & Shirley-esque" Initial on it? I have to say, I've worn the hell outta this sucker and plan to do so through the duration of the spring/summer. Alright, gang, make it a good one & make sure to check out The Shelf Giveaway from yesterday--I added a few additional items & will continue to do so!
How fab would it be if there was a site that archived items you found on the internet, but more than that, would allow you to set alerts for the price you are willing to pay for those pieces? Take it a step further--Once your gems go on sale & are within your set price range, you would receive an alert so you can get your items on sale ---sounds perfect, right? Welcome to The Shelf.
Similar to the Pin It button, The Shelf makes it terribly easy to add items to your "shelf" while browsing online. You can then filter the items by store or category. The Shelf also gives you stats on the item's current price, savings, and associated promo codes. Come gift season, you can share your "shelves" with fam & friends--I can't think of a better shopping & saving system!
I'm excited to be teaming up with The Shelf today--one lucky s + s reader will win an item from
My Shelf (less than $100) or a $75 gift card to any of the stores supported by the site. Entry rules are as follows:
3. Leave a comment below letting me know what you like best about the site or which item from My Shelf you'd choose if you win. PLEASE make sure to leave your email address so I can contact you if you're the lucky winner! Giveaway ends next Tuesday evening at midnight (5/21/13). Make it a good one!
A little variation on my go to button down & pants look. I wore this look out to dinner with some friends a few weeks ago and I have to say--I am totally into its laid back yet polished vibe. The silky fabric of this Blouse & Pants (not to mention the elastic waistband) allow for some breathing room & are seasonally appropriate. You know I love a good print mix so this stripe & paisley pairing are a match made in heaven in my book! Alright gang, you all make it a good start to your week!

I wore this look to work the other day and I have to say, it is my ideal 9 to 5 ensemble. I find it comfy yet polished while still maintaining some personality & professionalism. The Loft Dalmatian Blouse is a current fave with its light, airy feel & fun dotted print. Toss on some Baubles and roll the sleeves of your vibrant blazer (with a side of popped collar if you so choose) and you are all set to tackle your day! PS: if you love THIS NECKLACE as much as I do, INPINK is offering s + s readers 30% off all jewelry with code SEERSUCKER30 (code valid thru 6/10/13). Make it a good weekend, gang!
The weather got pretty warm here in Lex last week so it was the perfect time to bring out the shorts & accompanying silk top. Huge fan of stripes, no big shocker there, so this idea of pairing a bold vibrant stripe with a more classic pattern is right up my alley. And the Anchor Belt from Crewcuts--I believe it is a perfect addition to everyone's summer wardrobe--what better way to add a little nautical flair to your rigs! Make sure to take a peek at some other anchors below. Make it a good one!
