Spied: Anthropologie Winona Blazer

There are few things in this world that make me abandon my shopping mission like a striped blazer. I don't own one but every single time I see one I stop and pet it for a few minutes before moving on. That probably says something deep and meaningful about me, or maybe it just says it's time for me to just buy one already.

I was perusing the Anthropologie sale section and was pleasantly surprised to find this little lady, steeply discounted.

Winona Blazer - Anthropologie - $30 (Orig. $168)

Anthropologie has some seriously good finds in their sale section right now.

Inspired: J.Crew First Look at Spring

January is a mighty strange time for fashion inspiration. After the holidays are over, all the retail companies gear up for spring. But seeing as there will be snow on the ground for several months more, it gets tricky. Even in my sub tropical climate, January & February are the chilliest months and are better suited to boots and sweaters than sandals and shorts.

This, in no way, changes my excitement for bright hues & spring styles. Here are the latest inspiration looks over at J.Crew.

That polka dot blouse? Forget about it!
