Back In Black

What I'm wearing: J.Crew cardigan, J.Crew outlet circle scarf, J.Crew painter tee, Gap Always Skinny jeans, Ciao Bella boots via DSW, Handmade bracelet

It's been rough transitioning back to cold weather after the amazing temps we had last week. So here I am, in all black once again, taking indoor pictures. I've been feeling rather uninspired this week, so this was the best I could muster. A little bit boring (and a whole lot of J.Crew), but I wanted to get more use out of this cowl scarf before it gets warm for good. Plus, I wanted to give my handmade bracelet it's first "test drive". I've got a few little kinks to figure out, but other than that, I love it! I definitely plan on making it in more colors.

A Very Merry J.Crew Christmas

What I'm wearing: J.Crew button-shoulder sweater, J.Crew outlet circle scarf, J.Crew outlet jeans, J.Crew flats, Pink Box earrings, Forever 21 skinny belt

Those of you who have been reading Best Foot Forward for awhile have probably figured out I'm a bit of a J.Crew fanatic. So imagine my glee when I discovered on Christmas morning that majority of my presents were from there! Some I had helped pick out, but others were surprises, like my gorgeous bracelet! I had told my mom I liked it way back in November, but I hadn't expected that she would actually buy it. Because of my abundance of J.Crew presents, I ended up in head-to-toe J.Crew in the outfit above, which I wore for Christmas day with my mom's side of the family and my boyfriend's family. The sweater and scarf are both new, and I have a feeling I'm going to be wearing this scarf all the time. I love it! What was your favorite gift this year?
