Preppy Chic!

Wow! The new J. Crew collection for Spring 2013 makes quite the statement. Loving all the mixtures of colors and patterns. The patterns paired with pastels and brights just blow me away. Something so beautiful and fun to look at but is it practical?

Would you combine a crazy print with pastels and pair it off with bright pumps?

I am not sure I would. But I must admit I do love looking at these J.Crew looks! One thing I can take away from this collection is the idea to combine preppy and chic for a statement look!

J.Crew Colors

One of my favorite places to find inspiration for color combinations is J.Crew! I love the way the designers pair various colors and create masterpieces with the outfits. The color combinations are so vibrant and bold! The funky flats with patterns and colors are perfect for the beautiful, blooming Spring outdoors!

I love flipping though their catalog. They make fashion bright and exciting. Patterns, stripes, checkers!!!

Here are a few of my favorite combinations of mis-matching patterns, bold brights and funky prints!
