Thoughts? My favorite things in the Style Guide were the black and cream photo print Collection items. I'm pretty sure I won't be buying them even on FS with 40% off :)!
Very interesting post! I like finding similar looking J. Crew items for much less. The only thing I'm loyal to J. Crew are the pencil skirts. I want to check out the Old Navy boatneck sweaters this weekend. I like your pattern play and the splashes of pink in your outfit. Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeletelove your post! Yes, they do look so familiar, actually more alike than I thought. I got the Old Navy boatneck sweater(with the heart) a couple of days ago. Now, I regret not getting the polka dots one.
ReplyDeleteLove these looks for less! Old Navy always has some great similar jems. I find Joe Fresh is a great place too for cheaper alternatives with very similar designs :)

Just found your blog and love this post. OMG, I must have the Franco Sarto pumps you found at TJ Maxx! I've been trying to find cap toe pumps with a solid heel for ages! Were they a recent purchase, and do you remember the name of the style? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHere is a listing on Ebay for the pumps: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Franco-Sarto-Leather-Pump-8-5-nude-with-black-cap-toe-and-heel/261074235880?ssPageName=WDVW&rd=1&ih=016&category=55793&cmd=ViewItem#ht_500wt_1156
DeleteThat is definitely something to think about... When I see such similarities and look at the quality, I always think about the business side of creating clothes and that many times we are paying three or four times more for a garment just because of the brand. Its still hard to miss a high quality silk blouse or a fierce pair of pumps!
