My Vibe RN Is Classic Nostalgia—30 J.Crew Buys That Fit the Bill
In a world of chasing viral trends and aesthetics, I'm at a point where I'm tapping out. I've seen social media movements bring clean girl, quiet luxury, and mob wife to the forefront—only to toss them to the side shortly thereafter. It's made me, quite frankly, exhausted. What I really want is to buy into the things that I love and have a wardrobe that stands the test of time, pieces that I describe as "classic nostalgia."
In my search for these timeless pieces that I love, I've found myself deeply scrolling through the pages of J.Crew and always finding what I'm looking for. The quality is absolutely unmatched, and each collection highlights a different point when it comes to nostalgia. Below, find the 30 items I'm planning to add to my wardrobe first.

Sierra Mayhew was always destined to work in fashion, but she didn't know it at first. Growing up with no choice but to wear a rotation of school uniforms and activewear, her love for fashion really blossomed when she moved away for college and was able to finally define her very own personal style. Shortly thereafter, she interned at Elle magazine and instantly knew that editorial was for her. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame, she worked for ShopBazaar, contributing regularly to Bazaar.com, and finally made her way to Who What Wear, where she is an associate editor. When she’s not working, you can catch her always trying to catch a flight, rollerblading through New York City traffic, or exploring the latest luxury vintage boutique.
