My Picks: Crewcuts Sale

This year for Lent I'm giving up buying clothes for myself. As humans we're pre-wired to find pleasure in hunting and acquiring things (even if those things happen to be fabulous shoes!) and as a style blogger I am always tempted to pick up a little something for myself. I thought a forty day buying freeze would be a fun little test of will and would allow me to save some money, learn to rework some of the pieces I've been neglecting and allow me some time to stock up on other things we need.

Someone is my house who does need new clothes? Lorelai! She's on the cusp of turning two years old and already wearing a size 2T which means she's finally able to start rocking crewcuts, J Crew's childrens line. I love crewcuts for their mini-sized preppy staples and fun, quirky patterns. See a few pieces that look familiar? They frequently pull inspiration from their mommy-sized collection and even duplicate pieces completely (those fab green pants come in my size too!). The best part? All of these great pieces are on sale (with a coupon code for an additional 40% off)! EXTRA 40% OFF FINAL SALE ITEMS WITH CODE STYLE40. PLUS, FREE SHIPPING ON ANY ORDER
