The Zebra Parade

The clearance game at J. Crew is strong and, believe me, I am taking full advantage of it! I was surprised that many of the popular items that I thought would be out of stock have been sticking around or popping back up on the J. Crew website. For example, many of J. Crew's zebra themed items, which I thought were wildly poplar, can still be found at deeply discounted prices. Originally, I thought I would buy just one zebra piece in the form of a red cardigan, but when J. Crew started putting other zebra related items on clearance, I had to add to my collection! So, yes, I think I actually purchased every single zebra item J. Crew made this year, from this Tippi sweater to a little silk scarf that also features these galloping striped steads!

Upon purchasing this sweater, I wasn't quite sure what I would wear it with, but it turns out that it goes with numerous things in my wardrobe. It's always nice to get an item for a great price and to also be able to get a lot of wear out of it. Today I am wearing it with my Marimekko for Banana Republic dot skirt for a fun and playful take on this zebra motif. Who knows where these zebras will pop up next in my wardrobe?
