As Instagram followers might have noticed, I spent quite a significant proportion of my time in America seeking out the closest J.Crew store and working my way through the rails therein.
I love the selection of prints that are used in outfits as one would use a neutral and the beautiful costume-esque crystal jewellery. What's more, the service was impeccable, making the whole shopping experience so enjoyable. The staff were so smiley, helpful (whipping out an iPad to convert the cost of my haul into sterling to ensure I hadn't spent ridiculous amounts!) and friendly - you're on first name terms from the off.
I had to be selective due to a rapidly diminishing pile of dollars, but it would have been a breeze to add nearly everything to my wardrobe. In reality, I chose a few classic items that I know will earn their place in no time at all. Or at least tide me over until J.Crew arrives on our shores in November...
I bought:
3" Chino shorts in sea horse print and plain navy
Crystal earrings (similar here)
