I received my J Crew factory chambray shirt

And it's perfect! I love it!  It doesn't even say factory on the tag, just J. Crew perfect shirt.  Anyway, it's great and I only paid $35 for it, so I think that was a good deal. Now I just need to figure out how to style it! BTW for sizing reference I bought a size small.  I have broad(ish) shoulders and it fits perfect.

I got this one:

Re: I received my J Crew factory chambray shirt

  • I pair my chambray shirts with colored denim and maxi skirts.  You could also roll up the sleeves and pair it with some bright shorts and wedges.  I did a chambray shirt with a kelly green maxi skirt and flip flops for St. Patrick's Day.  That worked really well until it started pouring at night.  You can also wear it instead of a denim jacket if it's to warm for a regular jacket, but too cool not to be covered. If you pair it with khakis, I'd wear it open with a bright cami and statement jewelry. I've seen them with sequin skirts on Pinterest and think that could be really cute.  I started with 1 chambray shirt and now am up to 4 different styles and washes since I wear them so much.

  • I wore my chambray shirt yesterday with chinos and a red cami, with just two buttons in the middle buttoned (to but down on the boobalicious factor). It looks similar to that one...I love the rolled up sleeves!

  • I bought the same one last year for around the same price.  I like it, but I'm looking for a more lightweight version this year.
  • I have a short sleeve and a long sleeve and could seriously wear them every day.  My new favorite thing is to put a patterned shirt under it, leave the chambray open and then belt it.

  • Mine arrived yesterday too!  I am very (pleasantly) surprised by the quality and the color.  I think that I will first style it with some colored crops...and I think it will look great with white skinnies!  I'll share my looks if you share yours...  :)
