Why J Crew? Well because 1. I worked there for 18 months and always got a great discount which I still pine for. and 2. because their regular clothing has gotten so ridiculously expensive (a jacket for $1200? ) So I am forced to only shop the sale section in order to satisfy my craving.
Let's begin:

See, that wasn't so hard. Just start with one piece that you love and make the rest work for you.
I love your suggestions!! Especially the last one, the neutral dress with the bright, bold cardigan. So chic! :)
