Wedge

JCrew is easily one of my favorite stores. It wasn’t until I sat down to work this post together that I realized most of my outfit (top, jeans, shoes) are all from JCrew. I suppose that only reinforces the fact that’s it’s ranked toward the top of my list. I grabbed these wedges on sale last year and I don’t turn to them often enough because I keep them tucked safely away in their box in order to keep them clean. Not the best tactic, I realize. Talking wedges for a minute though, aren’t they the best? You get the extra height without sacrificing any comfort. Win/win in my book! Finally, this top. I recently got it during JCrew’s super sale (my reference to a sale on sale). I loved the feminine take on a classic men’s shirt. I can also see pairing it with a blazer to change the look up a bit and carry it into fall.

Hi! I am new to your site. It is lovely. I like the distressed jeans and the tank is so cute with the thin stripes. I too like the wedges, I have to be picky about shoes as I have an illness that is muscular in nature, so no high heels. The jewerly dresses is up and is the perfect bit of sprarkle. from the link up please stop by, jess http://www.elegantlydressedandstylish.com

Love those shoes! I too am a fan of the wedge, but sometimes like a mid-height option. I've found two wedge/wedge-like lower heel alternatives that may be of interest...
