Post #77: The Mannequin's (Shoppable) Fall Picks - J.Crew

            Going back to school always puts me in a preppy mood. That being said, today's shoppable picks come from J.Crew, which is nothing less than the epitome of (non-edgy) prep. While sweaters and cardigans rule the scene, you can always count on a random piece or two to spice up these necessary classics.
            One of my favorite things about J.Crew is the quality. A sweater from here is infinitely warmer than one from my go-to Forever 21. That being said, here are The Mannequin's "top" picks:

The Merino V-Neck Sweater ($59.50)


Fisherman Sweater ($98.00)
(check it out in hthr acorn *above*, vintage champagne, and hthr moss)



The Jester Sweater ($118.00)


The Houndstooth Moore Blazer ($395.00)
This might just be on of my favorite blazers ever. It is beautifully classic. If anyone has a picture of how it fits, send it in!


For a fuller look, try the Blythe Shirtdress ($178.00). Although I might switch out the belt for a darker brown one. It would also look great with tights. 



For bottoms, J.Crew is offering a few nice twists on classically preppy pieces for Fall. The Mannequin's favorite shorts, skirt, and pants picks are below. 

The Origami Mini in Houndstooth ($128.00)


The Tweed Walkaway Short ($118.00)
(don't you just love the detailing on the pockets and belt loops?)


The Stretch Vintage Bootcut Cord in Gatsby Green ($79.50)

Happy Shopping Academic Fashionistas
