My French Best Friend and I Both Love J.Crew—Here's What We're Adding to Our Carts Ahead of Black Friday
One of my best friends here in L.A. is from Paris. We immediately bonded over a vintage piece she was wearing at a party, and as they say, the rest is history. While we share many other interests and passions (including two energetic little boys who are the same age), we simply love to talk about fashion. With just one look inside our closets, you'll see our shared love for many styles and brands. J.Crew is one of them. We both lean toward an effortlessly chic, preppy vibe, which is why J.Crew's offerings are a big hit in our wardrobes. With J.Crew's Black Friday sale coming up in just a few weeks, I sat down with her—J.Crew app in hand—and we both shared our favorite pieces we fully plan to buy when the sale starts. Included in the mix are effortless sweaters, wool coats, ballet flats, and vintage-looking jeans that lean into her Parisian-chic vibe. I also added plenty of cool and of-the-moment items, such as chocolate-brown trousers, suede bags, and plaid pieces that feel fresh for the season.
