Jessica Alba's Plaid Boyfriend Blazer and Dad Sneakers Look for Less

Jessica Alba makes me want Dad sneakers!
It's a family affair! Jessica Alba sports a boyfriend blazer with Mom jeans and Dad sneakers for a boss babe look. She's channeling that Miranda-Hobbes-in-the-eighties boss, but it's a powersuit nonetheless! To get the look, I suggest you splurge on this check blazer from the new Atlantic-Pacific collection at Nordstrom. It's such a classic that you can wear so many ways! Then, save on the trendier items like the intentionally awkward sneakers and matching white bag. Undone hair and glossy lips give the whole look a modern, feminine feel.

I wanted to hop on here quickly to take a look back at 2018 and share some top moments with all of you. For longtime readers, you've probably noticed I haven't been able to work on the blog quite as much now that I have three little ones. So I wanted to say thank you for continuing to stop by. Like good friends, we may be out of sight at times but never out of mind! To new friends and fans, welcome! This site started as a place for fashion lovers to gather around a good bargain, and it continues to be just that.
