The rain is over, but we are having a lovely bout of spring weather with highs in the 60's. I love it! The weather bounces all over the place, constantly, but both this outfit and yesterday's are mostly made up of pieces from my "winter" capsule. I haven't put it away yet as the weather has taken this dip and I love getting a bit more wear from these pieces before I store them.
I'm in love with this chambray top from J. Crew. It was new this fall as part of my "Winter 14/15 Capsule." I love it because it is a true chambray fabric, not a denim shirt, which I find to be harder to wear. This fabric is soft and lightweight and even has some drape to it.
The grey jeans are the only item I kept from my one and only Stitch Fix box (last fall). They are Level 99 jeans and they are pretty good but I constantly have to pull them up. I need a jean that is more cinched in at the waist. (BTW the reason I didn't continue with Stitch Fix is because I didn't feel like they really read my profile or responded to my requests. And the timing was not right for me since I was just about to get into capsule wardrobes.) I'd love to hear about your experience with Stitch Fix if you've tried it.
Outfit details:
chambray shirt: J. Crew
grey jeans: Level 99 via Stitch Fix
shoes: Clarks
watch: Michael Kors
Nice outfit. Can you post more about your capsule wardrobe? I am seeing this all over the internet. I like the shirt and jeans. I didn't try Stitch Fix as I am petite and they at the time (they do now) have petite items like pants, skirts, etc. They recently sent me an email saying they now have petite items but I don't think it's worth it to me to do it.

Hi Molly. From my experience, I wouldn't really recommend it. I'm finding it's better (for me anyway) to try to shop on my own. Best wishes in finding what works for you! And I do plan to write more about capsule wardrobes eventually.
