The Look for Less: J.Crew French Colors Graphic Sweatshirt

J.Crew look for less at Old Navy
If you follow me on Snapchat (because clearly we all need yet another social media outlet to obsess over...I'm BudgetBabe FYI), you may have seen me post the above J.Crew 'French Colors' sweatshirt this past weekend.

It caught my eye in the store window and I'm kind of obsessed with the French phrases spelled out in their corresponding colors. It makes me giggle. Hee hee! Or should I say, "Haw haw haw" en français?

Old Navy has a surprising amount of J.Crew lookalikes for spring including a 'Bon Voyage' sweatshirt that has a similar vibe for half the price.

Honestly I wouldn't blame you for getting the J.Crew top and the Old Navy top, they're both pretty irresistible.

Spot On: Heidi Klum's Leopard Print Coat and Sweatshirt Look for Less

Heidi Klum's leopard coat airport style is on point.
If there's one print that defies trends and works in any season, for any age, it's leopard print.

Here, Heidi Klum elevates a simple sweatshirt and skinny jeans with a bold yet timeless leopard print coat, black ankle boots, and a Louis Vuitton bag.

There are so many good winter clearance sales going on now that you can find a great leopard coat for under $100 at places like Zara, Mango and Topshop...but sizes are limited, so I linked up a coat that's a bit pricier but still available in most sizes.

Grab a basic gray sweatshirt from H&M to finish recreating Heidi's model-off-duty airport style. You can wear this look with sneakers for school drop-offs, too!

Lookbook: The Threshold Winter Collection at Target

Threshold's Winter Collection at Target is so good
If your New Year's resolutions included refreshing your home, you need to see the lookbook for Target's newest home collection from Threshold.

The Threshold winter collection includes post-holiday refresh pieces, such as softer color palette bedding and bath, and updated storage baskets to help you stay organized. Pink pieces are woven throughout, perfect for any Valentine’s Day project you might envision.

The Threshold winter collections are just so good, I can't even. I wish I could literally outfit my entire home in Threshold sometimes, starting with this decorative wood ladder, circular mobile, 3-tier accent table, and this wishbone accent chair.

Shop these pieces in Target stores and online at Target.com now. So so good. #justtakeallmymoneyalready

Be sure to Pin these looks for future inspiration (you'll be able to see them larger this way, too!)

Off the Rack: January Finds at Old Navy

Rainbow hues jeans are back at Old Navy.
Old Navy's newest collection is giving me major coastal "resort" vibes with nautical stripes, lots of white, and vintage floral prints in primary hues of red, yellow and blue.

Yes, colored denim is back again but the shades have been tweeked just enough to make last season's dusty pink seem dated, and this year's strawberry dust totally covetable.

Classic Breton stripes are also back in full force if you need to refresh your closet, or you can pick up an updated take with a tie-front detail on a top or dress.

I'm loving all the pops of sunny yellow for spring - these ballet flats are an easy and inexpensive wardrobe update for $18.

And this tongue-in-cheek "Hello There" French terry sweatshirt, just $24, is giving me major J.Crew vibes.
