I Ordered 12 Things From J.Crew—These Are the 8 I'm Telling My Friends to Buy

Now that spring is here, it's time for my annual wardrobe refresh. I've been madly scrolling through the websites of every major retailer, but I determined that my first big order of the season was going to have to be from J.Crew. In the winter, I stick to neutrals for the most part, so seeing the fun color themes across the brand's site got me ready to start wearing color again. Pinks, blues, and pastel green won me over.
This time of year, my friends are always asking me for advice while shopping, so I had to report back to them about which items are actually worth buying at J.Crew. Of the 12 items that I ordered, these eight are a must-see finds. Enjoy.
This outfit that I tried on was so good that I'm already wearing it again. A tailored vest with a matching blazer has never ever failed me, and seeing it in pink completely won me over. The quality is, of course, incredible, and the next time I wear it will involve matching pants.
Shop the look:
Thanks to layering, the styling opportunities with this vest are endless, and I plan on taking full advantage.
Pairing this look with a maxi denim skirt made it so 2023.
Since spring is coming up, I am on the lookout for as many statement jackets as I can find. I'm convinced all you need in life is a good collection of outerwear and strong basics. This jacket is a must.
Shop the look:
As I mentioned above, I love a good jacket. This one gives the utilitarian look that we all love a bit of a preppy vibe. The embellished collar is my favorite part.
Shop the look:
This pearl necklace might have been one of my favorite items that I picked up during my exploration of J.Crew's site. It will be so fun to pair with chunky sweaters this spring. And I'm always into a sweater tied around the waist.
Shop the look:
And now, more from J.Crew:
The fact that this shirt is on sale feels like stealing.
