J. Crew Summer Kickoff Event (ends Tues. 5/28)
Why anyone would want to wear only clothes mainly from one store, I don’t know. BUT. It does make for a fun experiment, especially when it comes to showing the versatility of some classic (or even trendy-ish) pieces. Here’s five clickable outfits we mined MOSTLY from J. Crew’s quickly expiring Summer Kickoff sale event. Full original picks can be found here if you’re interested.
