Thanks to Emily over at <a href="http://www.emformarvelous.com/">Em For Marveous</a>, my afternoon plans have just been cancelled, because this sample sale is worth checking out! Sidenote: my eating for the month of March has probably just been cancelled too, because I don't know if I'm going to be able to save a dollar after all of the cuteness I just witnessed.<br />

I have such an appreciation for a couple who takes the time to work out the little details, and I really think it makes the day that much more special. And just wait until you see this venue, it is <i>to die for. </i>All of the photos were taken by <a href="http://nancyneil.tumblr.com/">Nancy Neil Photography</a>, and I think you'll agree that she did an amazing job. Scroll down to see all of the wedded goodness from Amanda + Will's big day. (Bonus points for a rockin' name, girl).<br />

I don't think I've ever loved a wedding more than this one! (And that's saying something, because I do my fair share of wedding blogging). First of all, the men wore <i>pink pants. </i>PINK PANTS! Does it get any better? It is safe to say that the bride has style to <i>spare</i>- she did everything right! From the romantic barn reception to the ruffled bridesmaids dresses, I couldn't spot a single thing I would change.

Crew ClassicsThere are few constants in a girl's life: her family, her friends, her dog, and her favorite clothing brand. (And for the lucky few- <a href="https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/189978_1654861327268_1109100004_31524656_4746554_n.jpg">a good guy</a>!) For me, nothing quite compares to J. Crew. From the 3" chino shorts to the perfect cardigans, they do no wrong. Here are a few of my favorite J. Crew staples.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/59/59369/59369_PK6485_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/59/59369/59369_PK6485_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/skirts/pencil/PRDOVR~59369/59369.jsp">The No. 2 Pencil Skirt</a>, $110</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Ah, the pencil skirt. What a classic. Maybe it's the college senior in me, but I can't wait to start wearing working girl clothing, and this skirt is the perfect fit. It comes in so many colors it'll make your head spin and your wallet empty.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/61/61456/61456_PK5844_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/61/61456/61456_PK5844_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/shorts/chinocotton/PRDOVR~61456/61456.jsp">3" Chino Short</a>, $45</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The 3" chino shorts are quite possibly my favorite clothing item I've ever owned. They look great on any body type and come in right-on-trend brights, as well as the necessary classics. My favorites are the white, navy, and hot pink because they match with just about anything. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/67/67669/67669_KE0157_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/67/67669/67669_KE0157_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/sweaters/cardigans/PRDOVR~67669/67669.jsp">Cotton Cardigan</a>, $88</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">You don't have to have grandchildren to understand the value of a great cardigan. I absolutely <i>adore</i> the animal print number pictured above. The typical go-to cardigan for me, though, would have to be <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_special_shops/weartoworkshop/sweaters/PRDOVR~29350/29350.jsp">the Jackie.</a> It's lightweight enough to wear on summer nights, and sturdy enough to last forever. Plus, cardigans allow even the least fashion savvy girl to look chic- just pop it on over a tank or tee, accessorize, and voila!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/37/37871/37871_PR5958_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/37/37871/37871_PR5958_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/shirtsandtops/blouses/PRDOVR~37871/37871.jsp">Blythe Blouse in Silk</a>, $98</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I can't say enough about my love for blouses. They are so feminine and classy and match with literally <i>everything</i>. Paired with the No. 2 Pencil Skirt shown above, this would be such a great day-to-night outfit. The possibilities are so endless! Plus, it comes in a myriad of colors to keep your wardrobe bright.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/44/44875/44875_DM0274_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/onFigure/44/44875/44875_DM0274_m.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_feature/alltimefavoritesclassics/PRDOVR~44875/44875.jsp">Keeper Chambray Shirt</a>, $78</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It's this simple: every girl needs a chambray button-up. The material is so soft you'll want to sleep in it, and they match perfectly with this season's brightly colored pants and shorts. I think the first week I bought mine I wore it every single day (don't judge me!).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/eiec/73/73569/73569_PK6318.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://images.jcrew.com/fsi/server?type=image&source=images/eiec/73/73569/73569_PK6318.tif&width=393&height=393&effects=sharpen(20)&quality=90&profile=jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/accessories/belts/PRDOVR~73569/73569.jsp">Patent Leather Skinny Belt</a>, $36.50</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">These belts are the greatest. They can be worn with everything pictured above: around the waist of the No. 2 Pencil Skirt and the 3" Chinos, cinched around the cardigan to give yourself more of a figure, the possibilities are endless. Plus, they're so bright they add a fun pop of color to even the most basic of outfits!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Happy shopping!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

No, I'm not talking about religion, I'm talking about <i>skirts. </i>I was always a mini skirt kind of a gal, and don't get me wrong, I still love to show some leg from time to time, but I have recently learned to appreciate the art of the maxi skirt. Apparently I was just in time, because these long, lean, leg lengthening machines are right on trend for this spring. Here are a few of my favorites, where to buy them, and how to wear them once they're in your closet.</span><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are few things I love more than a good basic, and this is definitely one of them. I recently bought this online and am already in love! It matches with everything, but I think a plain tank, statement necklace, and strappy sandals look best.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How great is this little gem? This spring the brighter the hue, the better, and this is no exception. Stick to jewel tones paired with nautical basics (like the top shown here) to look effortlessly chic.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

What I love about this skirt is that it maintains class with its length, while stilling allowing the wearer to show off her legs and, more importantly, <i>shoes!</i> Keep it classy with a blouse or tank in a rich fabric, and make sure to step out in your brightest heels for extra attention. <a href="http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&Category=btms_skirts&ProductID=2000030011&VariantID=">Here</a> is an affordable option from Forever 21.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is my absolute favorite shade for the warmer months. Nothing, and I mean <i>nothing</i>, looks better with tanned skin than coral. I also love the airy feel of this material, and the chiffon overlay makes it the perfect day-to-night skirt. Wear it with sandals and a tank on the beach, then throw on some wedges and a big bauble necklace for a night on the town.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Talk about edgy! If you're brave enough to give it a try, this asymmetric cut and <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">über chic pattern have the potential to wow even the most daring fashionistas. I love it paired with the booties in the picture, and think it would look awesome with an arm full of bangles and a black leather jacket.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19px;"><br />

Maybe it's the only child in me, but I just love to mark what's mine. Enter: <a href="http://www.marleylilly.com/">Marley Lilly</a>. I first spotted them on <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/MarleyLilly">Twitter</a>, and it's safe to say it was love at first sight.<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>Let me break it down for you: Take this time to think of something, <i>anything, </i>that you would ever purchase online. Now imagine it with a monogram. Marley Lilly makes this possible.</div><div><br />

<br />
Inspired by my love (okay, <i>addiction</i>) for online shopping, I have decided to use <i>Mystique Flair</i> as an outlet for my passion for fashion- without breaking the bank. It is my hope that this blog will not be limited to fashion, though. There will be plenty of wedding trend posts, because let's be honest, what gal doesn't love a good wedding dress? Plan on pages filled with pretty little finds I spot online, and if the inspiration arises, I might even give y'all a recipe or two.<br />
<br />
I look forward to sharing all of the things I love with you, and truly hope you enjoy reading. If you have any questions, comments or concerns please don't hesitate to contact me. See you soon!<br />
<br />
AJ<br />

P.S. I should come up with a cute "send-off", shouldn't I? Stay tuned!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17078361580678403366noreply@blogger.com0
