J.Crew Spotted In Lucky!

"Thanks!" to Closet Crisis (check out her great "One Too Many Closets" blog), who let us know about J.Crew items being spotted over at Lucky (click here).

The page features a suit from J.Crew— the Superfine Cotton Nouvelle Jacket (Item 21324; $178.00) with the Superfine Cotton Cropped Trouser (Item 22611; $108.00; now $59.99)—in a crisp light shade of White. They also share the following:

Getting It Right: Pantsuits & Sandals

* A LIGHT-COLORED SUIT with clean, simple lines gets you that crisp end-of-summer look. The trousers are key here: They should be tapered and cropped just above the ankle in order to showcase the shoes (and so that the hems don't catch on them when you walk).

* CHOOSE FLAT LEATHER SANDALS with wide straps. Their earthy quality is a cool counterpoint to the suit's sharp tailoring.

* FOR THE BLOUSE, stick to a soft button-down: The unconventional choice of footwear makes enough of a statement on its own.

The suit looks great, yet the sandals still don't work. I know the point of the article is to say one could pull the look off, I just don't think one can. I think ballet flats, heels, open toe flats, or open toe heels are much better options. On the other hand, I do think a pair of capri sandals would look great with a suit jacket and suit skirt (but not pants). That is just me. :)

What are your thoughts on the suit featured? Do you like wearing sandals with suits ? If so, please share us your technique (in terms of styling)! :)
