Obsessed with Safari Cat

Don't tell anyone, but I bought almost every piece of clothing in the Safari Cat pattern.  I honestly have never done that with any J. Crew pattern before.  I bought the Cafe Capris, the Tessa, the Cardigan, and the Skirt.  I must be the only one who loved the pattern, because I was able to get every item for 30-40% off.  The only piece I didn't get was the shorts, but boy did I try.  I must have tried those suckers on 10 times!  They were just too high waisted and too short (only 3 inches) even for less than $20. 

I know most will think I'm crazy, but I think this pattern will take me well into Fall here in South Florida.  I liked it with the green I wore today, but also plan on pairing with navy, pink, and orange.

Another suprise in my recent 40% FS order were the Caribbean Tweed Cafe Capris in Mango.  I grabbed them last minute because they were only $23 with the discounts.  Love. These. Pants.  The fabric is gorgeous!!  If you get a chance, I highly recommend. 

What do you think of the Safari Cat fabric?  Did you get anything 40% FS that you love?

    Great outfit! That's a good tip on getting the petite version of the skirt as it runs longer. I don't have this skirt myself, but I have the leopard abstract skirt (also was on sale) and it runs a little longer than I would have liked. Next time I will look into the petite size as I am "short and sweet." LOL

      Thanks, TC! When ordering the Petite size skirts, just remember to order up one size. I'm usually a 2 in J. Crew pencil skirts and this is a 4 Petite.

    I keep hemming and hawwing over this skirt - it has literally been in my basket at least 10 times. I think it will probably end up with me. You look so chic in this outfit! Skirt or capris? which do you recommend?

    You look stunning, I LOVE this green with the safari cat and the petite skirts!
    Which color is this green? I have the cafe capri in safari, maybe I can wear it in the same way as you did here!
