JCA "Help Style Me!" Weekly Post

This is the weekly "Help Style Me!" post, where we can share items we are having trouble putting outfits together with. Elaine (in this post) says it best, "You know, that thing you bought because you love it and you keep pulling it out and then putting it away without wearing it?"

Please share your J.Crew item (either that you own or are thinking about getting) that you would love help creating an outfit with.

Also, please help out by offering your styling advice. Feel free to include links to your blog (where you incorporated that piece) or to Polyvore (where you showcased an outfit with that piece). Thanks in advance! :)

  1. I just got the girls leopard macalister boots - and I'm in love! (I wear a 6.5 in real life, a 7 in most J. Crew shoes, and the K4 fits fine.) I need some help styling, though...mostly with regard to the shoe shape: pants? what kind? skirts? Help! (I'm totally on board with leopard as a neutral, and will pattern mix & match anything.) Thanks!

    1. Very cute outfit! I don't like the Pixie pants because of the high waist, constricting waistband and zipper, but I wonder if the maternity version could work. Thanks for the idea!

    2. you're so pretty! i esp love your shoes.

      how tall are you and what are your recommendations for sizing? the pixies look great and your reasons for liking them over the regular are now making me consider them!

  5. Any advice on packing tips for Palm Springs at this time of year? Never been but the weather looks good during the day and cool at night. Any advice would be appreciated!

    1. Love Palm Springs! Evenings can be very cool because it is the desert so take a cardigan or a wrap. Maxi dresses are usually excellent during the day. Some of the restaurants are fancy smancie so take some bling with you. Have a great time!
