These items will be available during the QVC show on 2/13 at 10pm ET. Which begs the question: How many of you ladies enjoy shopping from the comfort of you home with TV retailers like QVC? I've never ordered anything over the phone, but I have bought "as seen on TV" products at the drugstore. Online shopping is more my thing, but I'm curious to know the advantages of TV shopping.

The color CORAL

I stopped into my nearest J.Crew last weekend, lured inside by the stunning window displays, to check out their latest spring offerings. J. Crew isn't exactly what I would call a budget-friendly store, but their timeless takes on fashion trends are always inspiring—and many would argue they are well worth the price. This season is no different: From classic shirts, tees and sweaters remade in light and bright spring hues, to sparkling statement necklaces, colorful scarves and Le Pliage-inspired totes, J. Crew had everything you'd need to put together a smart yet none-too-serious spring wardrobe.

The problem with a classy store like J. Crew is that you always get personal attention from the sales people, so unfortunately I was not able to discreetly snap photos of the beautiful store displays, which demonstrate how to artfully layer individual pieces, how to accessorize—the works. Even if you don't buy anything (I did not), pop into a store near you for ideas! Here, some photos of just a few fun pieces that caught my eye.
