Hi ladies! Wanted to post a big rave for the drapey wool Caswell jacket. I got it in my last order and am wearing it today with a black cami, gray pencil skirt (CoH Zoe in Carbon -- great, great skirt, BTW. Highly recommended.), and black peep-toe heels. It is awesome. Sorry, no pic. (I know, I know. This thread is useless without pics.)

I wasn't sure what "drapey wool" would be like, but it's an incredibly lightweight, almost tissue-weight fabric that's wonderful for summer. It drapes beautifully, and is a stylish and unexpected alternative to a traditional blazer. I really like it, and think I'm going to get a ton of wear out of it. Two thumbs up.

Fits TTS. I took my usual size 6.

jello, love the silk cami! It looks great on you.
 
Sam - we can't keep going through this with you - LOL... pull that camera out and let us see these outfits. PLEASE!!! I was thinking about that jacket, still on the fence. Does it fit really slouchy or more of a relaxed slouchy?
 
I know. I'm a horrible tease :p. I'm often posting from work (shh!), but will try to remember to take pics when I'm getting dressed.

I'd call it "polished slouchy." The body of the jacket is fitted (though not tight -- the lightweight material is very comfortable), and the slouchy part is the collar/lapels. It's really gorgeous. You should give it a shot!
 
^^^That was supposed to be this:D.
Anyway, I just came back from J.Crew and I got these two:

The skirt was marked down to $49.99 (see below) and the necklace was $29.99. The skirt is sooo pretty and the necklace looked really great on my black tee so I had to get it. And then, get this! I was about to pay and they told me the total was $60 something. And I asked the cashier if he got the necklace and he was like "yes, I got it. Both items are $29.99" Needless to say I am really happy with my purchase:yahoo:


I have this necklace! :tup:
 
That dress is adorable! What a great piece for summer.

I've been drooling over the Ares sandals in the catalog. I love the way they look but I have a sneaking suspicion that they won't be comfy. The footbed looks like it has no padding. What do you ladies think of J. Crew's sandals? Are they worth the $$$?
I purchased these a few months ago actually and ended up having to return them. The side strap's buckle comes across and hits your ankle bone - they were about the most uncomfortable shoes I'd ever put on. I thought this might just have been my experience, but when I returned them in-store she said others have said the same thing. I really liked them, but they just weren't bearable.

Thank you for your feedback! You've officially killed my lemming for them. My wallet is very happy! :smile1:
