If you haven't checked out the latest J.Crew collection, you are missing out. It is a massive hit among Who What Wear editors and fashion people alike, especially due to the styling this season. One look, in particular, caught my eye last month when checking out the new fall arrivals, and I immediately felt compelled to re-create the look. It's spot-on for a busy working mom of two who swears by outfit ideas that are incredibly easy to pull off, plus it keeps you comfortable without sacrificing style.
Fast forward to early this month, when I wore the outfit while running errands in Boston. I entered a coffee shop to grab some snacks for the kids and noticed a group of women in line staring and giving me a once-over. I was self-conscious at first, but I was quickly put at ease when they then proceeded to compliment my outfit and ask me for all the details. Below, I break down the three-piece outfit formula from J.Crew and share four other looks that are worthy of your consideration for fall and beyond. Here's to confidence-boosting ensembles!
The Outfit
Blue Button-Down Shirt + Brown Cropped Knit Pants + Black Ballet Flats
As I mentioned, this outfit is chic, effortless, and comfortable. I love pairing blue tones with brown, so it's a win in the color department as well. I completed my own look with a large black Madewell tote to match the black flats.
