Luncheon wears

Obviously I was having too much fun
blazer - zara m, sweater - zara s
skirt - ann taylor 00p, tights - loft, shoes - shoemint 5.5

(I actually wore my black loft wedges instead of my booties to the luncheon today, but I left them at work. The booties are my commuter shoes)

When I first started to going to work luncheons, I had no idea what to wear. My first time, I wore a black suit just to be safe, which was fine but also quite boring. I hoped to take fashion cues from other women in my industry, but their tastes were a bit mature for me. As I go to more of these functions, I am slowly learning how to style an outfit that is age appropriate, fashionable, but yet professional.

Review: J. Crew snowcap puffer, tipped hacking jacket, schoolboy blazer in wool flannel

These past few months, a majority of my credit card charges were due to online purchases from J. Crew. I have been on the quest to find my perfect winter coat (and I'm pretty sure I'll have a winner by Monday when I get a package), which has resulted in a bunch of returns due to sizing issues. In addition, the 30%/40% online and in store sales have proven dangerous for me, as I check the website each morning before work and often just make the impulse buy before sizes are gone. Though these items are on sale now and will be gone soon, I figured a review could be handy as similar styles may appear next year. At the very least it would be good for future reference, right?

Snowcap Quilted Jacket in Dark Olive, xxs, xs

The difference between the xs and xxs. The xs is wider by just a little, probably 1/2 an inch or less total. The sleeves of the xs also seem a tad longer and wider, but by a negligible amount.
