Black and Camel

Blazer: JCrew, similar / Top: Express / Jeans: Flying Monkey / Shoes: Christian Louboutin, similar / Purse: Proenza Schouler / Necklace: Bauble Bar

I hope your week is going well!  This has been a little bit of a crazy week for me.  I have a big series of all-day meetings this week at work and then lots of fun events every night.  I’m not complaining though!  I’m off to see Madonna tonight for a friends birthday and then a dinner mixer tomorrow.  I always complain that I don’t get out enough so I wont’ complain now that I have some fun options.  It always seems to be feast or famine in my social life.  Am I the only one who feels that way?

I’ve been looking for a camel blazer forever, so when I found the JCrew Regent blazer in camel, I knew my search was over.  Well almost over.  JCrew and I had to play a game of chicken while I waited for the blazer to be included in one of their weekly sale codes, while still hoping that it would still be in stock in my size.  Then I ordered the wrong size!  #doh  Anyway, I finally got it in the right size and love it!  I always thought that camel would be a difficult color for me to wear since it is so close to my skin tone, but it works.  I’ve paired the JCrew Regent blazer with my black distressed skinny jeans here, but can’t wait to pair it with all white or grey.  Not surprisingly, I have a lot of ideas on my Pinterest board (which I think told me subconsciously that I needed to buy one, lol!).  Do you have any items that you find yourself pinning over and over that then make it into your closet?

Thanks for reading and have a great day!
