It’s no secret that we love J.Crew around here. From their perfectly tailored chambray shirts to Emily’s and my shared favorite tennis shoes, their classic style is a go-to for staple pieces.

As you can imagine, we were thrilled when they turned their sartorial eye to weddings, and have oohed and ahhed over their casual and affordable collection for years. Several of us have even worn their bridesmaid dresses when we’ve stood up beside our friends, as we know SO many of you have, too. We were sad to hear that J.Crew is discontinuing their wedding line soon, but the silver lining is that there are fantastic savings to be had on their gorgeous pieces while they last. We’ve rounded up a few of our favorite pieces here, and if you scurry right along, there is an extra 30% off sale with the code FESTIVE!

Happy shopping, friends! Anyone want to reminisce together about a great J.Crew wedding moment they’ve been a part of? :)

Southern Style: Packing for a Fall Honeymoon

Packing for your honeymoon does not always mean bathing suits and sundresses. Brandon and I went to France (in December!) for our honeymoon, so we were actually packing the opposite: jackets and boots! If you’re planning a honeymoon this fall to a locale filled with cool, crip air, and you’re not sure what to pack, I’ve got you covered. Think simple pieces that can easily be layered as the evenings get chillier, and mix and matched to create extra outfits, depending on the length of your vacation. Pairing a cute dress with tights and the same booties you wore with skinny jeans and a warm sweater for exploring the town will help both your suitcase and your wallet!

I like to plan ahead, but I know that it can be challenging to find adorable and affordable fall pieces during the summer. Fellow bargain shoppers rejoice, I am here to help with some really great deals from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and some of our other favorite places! This way, you can save your pennies and use that extra bit in your budget for a special dinner on your honeymoon.

Travel tip: always wear your boots and heaviest sweater/coat on the plane. Not only are planes usually quite chilly, but you’ll save on luggage space! Don’t forget an expandable tote, makeup palette perfect for taking you from day to night, and heavy moisturizer to protect against extra dry air.
