Sweater Weather

Madewell @gardenstate

Finally Checked out the new Madewell that opened at Garden State Plaza a week or two ago. Awesome!

I tried on the vintage rocker jeans in chasm wash, $110. They are totally cute and super flattering. I completely recommend trying them if your looking for something that borders on that hippie trend this season but is not too baggy. If you need a new pair of dark denim that you can wear out to a concert or just around town these are the pair of jeans to invest in this season, plus the sales woman told me there are on promotion in the store for $59.50 (a steal).

Brrrr, Baby!

It's cold outside! Loving all the new circle scarfs added to the accessories section on madewell.com in a plethora of pantone colors. So many I can't decide which one to get for this fall!

Did anyone else miss the extra 25% final sale this weekend?! Unfortunately only lasted 48 hrs and many sizes were already sold out.

More Madewell Musical Muse

Annie Clark of St. Vincent shares her love of the Madewell High Riser Jean, The National and why you should never feel guilty about yourself.

It's official Alexa Chung + Madewell debuted. Missed the lovely launch party but still drooling over some of these coveted items, such as the pixie coat (already sold out), red beanie, eyes eyes eyes tote and valentine pajama top. Not to mention the adorable necklace she's sporting with the top in the image attached. Did anyone make it to the event or grab up some amazing Alexa Chung Madewell items before they're all gone?

c) friendship bracelets- grab a friend and some string and craft your way to this newest trend of layered & found bracelets. Don't know where to start, I like this link borrowed from honestly...wtf

b) summer playlists - there is nothing better than driving on a beautiful summer day with the window rolled down blasting an upbeat melody like cruel summer

End of Summer

We are three days away from the OFFICIAL end of summer and in honor of its passing I have decided to post a few off topic links from the J.Crew/Madewell Blogs. Three topics that include my favorite summer pastimes,

a)summer reading - there is nothing better than lounging in the sun completely emmersed in an amazing book. This reading list is narrowed down to musically influenced literature but the tone deaf will enjoy it all the same.

How I've Missed You

The weather is a little crisp and the mood slightly more mellow which makes me in the mood for more Madewell! For those of you who feel off the face of the earth this Thursday marks the much anticipated launch of Alexa Chung for Madewell! Most stores are hosting events this Thursday from 6-9pm including snacks and free gifts (while supplies last). I am working and will not be able to make it but would appreciate any comments or pics from those who do attend.

Since the last time I've blogged other Madewell news includes:
1. A Madewell Catalog (in newspaper style (love))
2. Madewell's own Blog - check it out here
3. New Madewell Stores near you

I know I left a lot of you out of the Madewell loop but am coming back freshly devoted to scouting everything Madewell just for you...
