Blogger Feature: J of J's Everyday Fashion

I am beyond excited to have J of J's Everyday Fashion here on the blog today! J is pretty much the be-all end-all of "real-girl" style! She recreates outfits seen in look books, catalogs, on celebs... pretty much anywhere - and makes them her own, with perfect execution and affordability! Basically, she's amazing!
 
 
3 words to describe your personal style?
Experimental, colorful and trendy
 
 
Who are your celebrity style icons?
Olivia Palermo and SJP 
 
 
What would you consider the 5 essential items to a fashionable wardrobe?
I'm a huge believer that "essentials" means totally different things to different women, depending on your climate, occupation and lifestyle. A few that I would recommend for a broad spectrum of women would be a great pair of jeans, a quality handbag, a work/sheath type dress you can throw on in a pinch, some flat shoes that both comfortable and stylish, and cardigans in different colors.
 
 
What is your favorite/most versatile accessory? 
Oh boy do I love belts! I use them often to change the shape of shirts and dresses to make them less boxy. They can also add more color or texture to your outfit, though, so they are the ultimate double-whammy.
 
 
As a young professional, how do you find a balance between fashion and comfort/professionalism/appropriateness?
You can take a basic work look - such as flats, pencil skirt and collared shirt - and make it fun by adding unique color combinations, prints, layering with a cardigan or blazer, and accessories like statement necklaces. These elements jazz up an outfit, without compromising comfort or dress code.
 
 
Your claim to fame is creating on-trend outfits on a real-girl budget. (I love that!) What are some of the major challenges in this, and what are your tips to working against them?
The biggest challenges of being on a real-girl budget are not looking cheap (see this article for tips), and resisting temptation to spend more of your income on clothes than you should! (see this article for tips)
 

One trend I'm dying to try is:
All of them! :-) 

I feel most myself when I’m wearing: 
The boho look, which is almost always what I'm rocking on super-casual days. Distressed denim, wavy hair, loose t-shirts and turquoise jewelry. That's how you'll find me at the grocery store!
 
 
 Thanks so much for everything, J! All y'all, make sure you head over to J's Everyday Fashion - she posts outfits I want to emulate literally on a daily basis! Follow her blog and you won't be sorry! :)

    Agen Bola Terpercaya Indo11.com melaporkan, kelanjutan karir bomber yang dimiliki bersama oleh Torino dan Juventus, Ciro Immobile musim depan semakin dekat dengan titik terang. Diwawancarai usai tampil membela Italia dalam laga kontra Republik Irlandia, Ciro mengakui bahwa negosiasi kepindahan menuju Borussia Dortmund sudah rampung.

    Immobile menambahkan bahwa kini yang tersisa hanyalah tanda tangan kontrak, yang tertunda karena ia harus menunaikan tanggung jawabnya bersama tim nasional. Beredar kabar menyebut Dortmund mengeluarkan dana sebesar 19,5 juta Euro yang dibagi kepada Juventus dan Torino.

    "Negosiasi transfer sudah selesai. Saya sudah mengatakannya beberapa waktu lalu. Kini saya tinggal membubuhkan tanda tangan saya di surat kontrak," papar Immobile seperti dilansir Agen Bola Terpercaya Indo11.com.

    Striker kelahiran Torre Annunziata ini disiapkan Dortmund untuk menggantikan posisi Robert Lewandowski yang hengkang ke Bayern Munich. Sebelum Immobile, Die Borussien juga telah mendatangkan dua bomber lainnya yaitu Ji Dong-won dan juga Adrian Ramos.
