The Look for Less: J.Crew Camo Shirt and Cargo Jacket

J.Crew look-a-likes at Old Navy

Part of my Sunday routine includes strolling around downtown to check out the cute boutiques and my local J.Crew (I live in a college town). So while it's not budget-friendly, I love checking out the trends and scouring the sales racks (which are surprisingly good, possibly because it's a college town!) This past Sunday I spotted a camo shirt and cargo jacket and was instantly reminded of a camo shirt and cargo jacket I saw just a week ago at Old Navy...

Accessory Steal of the Week: Blue Suede Shoes


Old Navy's cobalt blue suede pumps are gorgeous (and a steal!)

In this weekly column, I’m bringing you my favorite budget-friendly accessory that’s available online or in-stores. This week, we’re talking shoes. Make sure to check out my blog SydneStyle.com for more affordable fashion inspiration!

One of my favorite style shoes is a pointy pump. They’re classic, work season to season and lengthen the leg. While I love a good nude, a bold color can really make your wardrobe pop. Normally, I’ll invest a little extra money into my classics. But it’s always a good thing when you can find something on a bargain. Enter Old Navy’s new pumps.

The Look for Less: Rag & Bone 'Harrow' Booties at Old Navy

Rag & Bone's "Harrow" booties were the "it" boot last fall and will continue to be popular this season. Here they are in brown leather for $525 at NEIMANMARCUS.COM.



We've seen the Rag & Bone "Harrow" not only on celebs (like Taylor Swift) and top fashion bloggers, but all over TV, too, on shows like Elementary, Trophy Wife, Friends with Better Lives and Dads (shown below from left to right).

I was just at Old Navy last week and spotted these amazing Rag & Bone "Harrow" lookalikes for $42.94! Available in brown or black. A word of caution: Some reviewers online are saying these boots can be difficult to get on (no zipper) so try before you buy if possible. Other than that, I thought they look great for the price.

Fab Find: French Phrase Graphic Tees at Old Navy


Graphic tees at Old Navy - NEED!

Ladies, run, don't walk, to your nearest Old Navy to scoop up one (or more) of their latest French phrase graphic tees. I bought three yesterday: "You, Me, Oui!", "J'Adore" and "Holy Chic". I would say the tees run true to size but I sized up to a Large for that relaxed, cool vibe. They're super soft cotton/modal so they shouldn't shrink too much. At $14.94 a pop you'll want more than one!

You could wear these with cut-offs and slip on sneaks for a sporty vibe (extra points if you add a quilted crossbody and fashion-forward baseball cap), or go fashion-blogger by pairing with ripped skinny jeans, a white blazer, heels and some statement necklaces layered on for good measure. Really, the possibilities are endless!
