Thank you for Stopping By


Shirt: J Crew, Sweater: J Crew, Jeans: Hudson, Flats: Michael Kors, Purse: Cole Haan, Watch: Rolex, Necklace: JC Penney












The weather in Miami was crazy this weekend. I finally got a chance to pull out one of my favorite sweaters and pretend like it was actually winter in Miami. Oh how I envy all you northerners - I love layering winter wear. J. Crew shirts are my favorite shirts to use for layering. They come in a gang of colors and are structured enough to prevent that unsightly bulging around the midsection.

On another note, I really want to thank all of you lovely ladies for taking the time out to visit this blog. I am truly overwhelmed and appreciative. I live for all your comments and feedback. Please subscribe to the blog and check back since I plan to respond to each and every one of your comments. Also, please let me know if you have a blog that you would like me to visit. I can't wait for us to get to know each other better.

Lots of Love
Jillian

    1. Thanks a bunch Missy! I absolutely love Mississippi (one of my besties lives there)! I lived in Michigan for a couple years and layering SAVED-MY-LIFE. When I think about those snow storms, I quickly remember why I chose to live in Florida. It's always great to hear from you!

  2. I can relate to the Jcrew shirts, they're like snacks; you can't have just one lol, especially when they're on sale.

    1. I absolutely love that saying. It is soooo true. I usually leave J Crew staring at my bill and asking myself "what happened?" Then I look down at the 50 shirts that I just bought and quickly figure it out. Thanks so much for stopping by, your comment made me smile.

  10. I saw your feature on The Fashion Bomb and decided to stop by as I love your style! Your style is very similar to my own however I'm 5'8 and don't get to wear heels as often as I like or want because I have flat feet but I'll suck it up for an awesome heel! I love that your blog offers great style advice for the stylish professional woman (I'm a clinical social work therapist). Please keep up the awesome job!

    1. Thank you sooo much for stopping by! I have flat feet too lol. I just stuff my little flat feet in my heels and suffer the consequences throughout the day. With statuesque ladies like yourself walking around, I need every inch I can get :)

      Hopefully we can exchange tips on how to be stylish and work appropriate

    1. Hey Sheyla,

      I found this one at the JC Penney in Dadeland Mall. I'm not sure if it would still be there since I got this a couple months back but there's a similar one on sale at ASOS.com. Thanks for visiting!

  23. I love ur style. You've inspired me to get back to dressing up for work. My job allows us to be casual everyday which has caused me to be super lazy with my fashion choices. You have a great sense of what looks good for your body type. Kept up the good work!
