13 Fashion Rules we Learned from Jenna Lyons - BloggerNotBillionaire.com

It was recently announced that Jenna Lyons, former Creative Director of JCrew, would be leaving her post at the fashion retailers helm. An era was ending and for many of us who came to our fashion maturity during her reign in the fashion world she shaped our view of what the ‘Rules of Fashion’ were and how to navigate them. Through her styling for JCrew and her own personal style statements she conveyed her unwavering opinion that this was a new era of fashion. I remember buying my first statement lipsticks, Nars Funny Face & Nars Heatwave after seeing them used in a brilliant JCrew campaign where the non-reds popped against the military green of each outfit. In tribute, those two lipsticks are worn in today’s shoots as we give you our perspective on what Jenna taught us. We attempted to take our learnings from Jenna and recreate outfits that both fit our style and that fit her non-conformist teachings as well. Here are 13 Fashion rules we learned from Jenna Lyons.
