I spy with my little eye 6 Jcrew items.
1. sequin skirt
2. lavender taffeta dress (I have one in the same color. I wonder if it's the same dress lol).
3. greenish yellow skirt
4. tweed (i think) greenish skirt
5. layered cream skirt
6. floral strapless dress
No wait, 7 including the pants that you recently posted a picture wearing. lol
What do I win?
Also, I think the blue circle is an Anthroplogie dress, by "Left of Center." If I'm correct, I have that one too. Bonus points! haha
Your modeling shots look great by the way!

Since you ladies are Jcrew professionals if any of you stop by a jcrew and this skirt finally on sale, please let me know. I want it, but don't want to play full price for it and have it go on sale the shortly after. This includes you DC, even though I said I was through with you in another thread lol.
Sorry, it's a blurry picture. I took it twice and both came out terrible. The skirt is purple lace though. I didn't see it online.

I'm so sad. I went home for winter break & didn't get a chance before that to check out the J.Crew store at school since I was so swapped with work. By the time I returned to school, the spring collection was already in place & the measly pieces of outerwear they had left were all size 10+! I've been wanting a J.Crew coat for a while now... I'm tired of wearing my North Face down jacket during the winter (since none of my other outerwear has thinsulate or are only fall-appropriate).
A petite coat with thinsulate would be my choice. Unfortunately, the only one I remotely like on eBay doesn't have thinsulate. Sorry gals, I just wanted to rant! I so wanted a coat as my first J.Crew piece.

How long should minnie pants be? I'm trying to decide if I should get tall or not. I don't get tall in anything else ever because I only wear flats, but I am 5'9". I also tried the Pixie pants but they just looked weird on me with the lines going down the back, anyone else have them?
Yeah, the prices are great!!there are a few petite styles on sale + 40% off, online
Final sale is what's keeping me back right now though.However, I really wanted to try the coats on in-store to get an idea of my sizing at J.Crew. Maybe one of you ladies can help me out? I can't decide between a petite 4 or a petite 6... but I also can't decide between the Colletta or the lady day!! My friend owns a peacoat in size 4 regular, so I think I'm going to ask if I can try hers on just to see...
For reference, I am barely 5'1", a 34B, a 6 in H&M tops, a medium in Forever 21 tops, a 4 regular in my Banana Republic blazers & a 4 petite in ASOS, an S in my North Face down jacket, if anyone could size me in J.Crew. Even though I'm short, I find that I don't really wear "petite-sized" clothing. But the Colleta & lady day seem to skim the knee, so a petite length would suit my height more.

Peacoat sizing is different, usually running bigger (at least that's what I've noticed), so trying it on won't really assist you in figuring out your size. If I had to choose between the Lady and Coletta, I'd choose the Lady Coat, in P4. While I like the Coletta, I LUV the Lady coat. But, the Coletta was a really big seller this year. I guess you can't go wrong with either.
I don't know if you are going to place the order online or in the store. But, if you go to the store sometimes the SA will place the order for you NOT applying the 40% off (since it's supposed to be final sale), so you can order both. When you get them, try on and decide. Then return to the store to have the 40% off applied to the coat you decide to keep. Does this make sense?

You're welcome 
the red is the sale price, the additional 40% off will come off when you enter the code upon checkout.
Honestly, I have ordered items that should have been marked final, but weren't when I received the items. Luck of the draw it seems.

Ooh, I see! I will probably head to the store today or tomorrow, so I will try my luck & ask them if they can place an order for me.
One last thing... is the thinsulate version warm enough for winter wear? I'm in Boston, so winter is like another good 2 months. I love not having to layer excessively with my North Face.

The 40% off ends tonight at midnight, so if you are trying to get it for really cheap that is something to consider.
I have a Carlin coat (a coat from last year VERY similar to the coletta) and the Lady Day, both in black, and I wear my Carlin coat all the time and I hardly ever wear the lady day. The lady day is much dressier and more formal, it goes great with dresses and suits. The carlin/coletta, in my opinion, look much better with jeans and more casual, trendy things.
I have coats with thinsulate an without and I honestly don't notice a big difference. Where I live it has been in the 30s for a high and I have been fine wearing any of my stadium cloth or double cloth coats with and without thinsulate, as long as I have a sweater underneath.
