Windowpane & Chains

When I saw this (now sold-out) windowpane J.Crew shirt on Julia of Lemon Stripes, I fell in love. The windowpane is like a more sophisticated take on plaid, especially on silk shirts like Julia’s. Unfortunately, as much as I love pretty much everything J.Crew has to offer, it’s usually not in my budget. Enter the magic of Forever 21, and an eerily similar version in black and white!

    • Thanks so much, Alyson! I was really excited to find this blouse. Forever 21 is amazing if you have the patience for it! I bought the pink flats from Ann Taylor on a whim when they were on sale, and I’m so glad I did. Thanks for stopping by!

  2. You’re so right, J Crew is pretty but hard on the wallet. I actually love that top from Forever21 better!
