J.Crew goes to the office

Skirts, skirts and a few dresses - but more importantly colours.

Jeans, jeans and more jeans

ph/JCrew

I have known about JCrew for a couple of years and always found their stuff effortless and timeless. But to be honest, I never really paid that much attention, and how wrong I was not to. I am not a huge fan of getting dressed in the morning and I do like to go to sleep with an outfit in mind. This apprehension is doubled when I started working - in a corporate environment may I add. Personally I really like what J.Crew has to offer in terms of work attire that is youthful and on the other end of the boring spectrum. Another added bonus is that they work with half sizes which means that there is most definitely your perfect size.

Let's face it, there is an increasing number of young ambitious women in the workplace - and so there should be - but there is no reason why we should dress up like the 50 year old male lawyer now is there? Not that there is anything wrong with being a 50 year old lawyer of course, I just don't fancy dressing like them.

Now if only they were present in Europe so that I could try them out before making an order online.

Yvonne Kone Heels

ph/Style by Kling

When I first saw the bracelets, I absolutely loved the mix of hardware and leather. Yvonne Koné managed to create very modern yet feminin jewelry out of such 'hard' material. Now she has done it again and created heels that look just has appealing. These look like the perfect pair of black sandals, with a modern twist to them. However, this are definitely not DIYable and I have to say I am very excited about them - oh and very jealous of Elin that is sporting them here.
