Chambray, Four Ways

There must be something wrong with me, because despite the heat and humidity, I can't stop thinking about my fall closet. Granted, I spend more time wearing all black than is socially acceptable (thanks a lot, dress code!), but I daydream about rich fall colors, textures and layers. I also daydream a lot about chambray. I have two chambray shirts, which is already one too many, but I keep seeing cute chambray tops everywhere and want to buy them all. I even styled one in my Cashmere display yesterday (see my previous post, here).

Since chambray is a relatively light fabric, I figured I would share with you a few ways chambray can be styled from the summer's warmer temps (and frigid indoor AC) through the chillier temps of fall.

Do you have a chambray shirt? What's your favorite way to style it?

Soft Sweater, Warm Sweater, made of goat fur, Snuggly Sweater, Pretty Sweater, perfect lay-er!

My store is one of 42 Macy's locations across the country selling Charter Club cashmere earlier than normal... which seems crazy, considering it was 90-100 degrees last week. I'm not convinced that our customers are ready for sweaters, but I still love the shop. It's so pretty (and snuggly, and soft, and warm)! I had a lot of fun working on this project, and it's the first time I've done all of the visual by myself (lettering on the wall, the mounted sweater bar, the light box, the mannequins and the bust form), so I feel like a proud mama. Here are some photos I snapped with my phone (hence the crazy lighting):
