Ever since I borrowed a printed cardigan from Cee (see here) last summer, I've been on the hunt for the perfect rendition to add to my wardrobe. However, as I soon discovered, a good print cardigan is hard to find! After steering away from many that either looked cheap or were too expensive, I was so happy to find this cornflower blue ikat number during our visit to Woodbury Commons in New York. It really injected a pop of interest into this casual outfit, which I wore for a hectic day to meet Eliot and Jenna (who were both absolutely lovely in person!).
Wearing: J.Crew Factory cardigan (found some for sale here, and here's a beautiful but pricey option), YesStyle blouse, Zara trousers, Tory Burch loafers (similar), DKNY bag, House of Harlow sunnies, Thakoon for NARS polish in Lal Mirchi (see full collection here)

I'm so glad you were able to find a print cardigan that you love to add to your own wardrobe, Jen! I've been admiring this ensemble since you posted it on Instagram and I think I may just have to investigate the current print cardigan options from J. Crew - I knew for sure they have at least one gem!
I've really been enjoying your NYC posts, can't wait to see more. Hope you're doing well :)

I have a hard time finding pants from Zara that fit as good as these and look at good as these. What style did you get? So I can keep a lookout for it.

I happened to chance upon these on sale two years ago :( you're right though- Zara pants usually don't fit me well either!
by Jen on June 7, 2012 at 3:48 PM. #
Yes, I think it's worth it! Some amazing deals to be had.

Oh my goodness, I am in love with your outfit. I love J.Crew Factory - there are some things that are too good to pass up!

The cardigan is a great find! I love the vibrant colour and the ikat print is totally on trend. It must have been so exciting to meet all these wonderful women in person in NYC, and was especially elated to see you make an appearance on Kim's blog this week!

What a great print! I'm assuming it's not too thick, since you were able to roll up the sleeves and bunch them like that! Sometimes it feels like my arms are being squeezed to death if the material is too thick!
