Got the new spring Hollywood catalog last night, and holy hell they are PROUD of their jeans... Are they really worth that?

Does anyone have the Irena Gladiator Wedges? I'm thinking of ordering them and wondered if they were as cute in person.

So I received the lady-day coat in the mail today! I ordered 6P in dark cypress... OMG, the color is SO gorgeous! Really well made coat too. Unfortunately, the lady-day just doesn't match me since it seems much too structured & formal. I guess you could say I have a "young" face, so there was mismatch going on. The Colletta definitely would've been a better choice, but it's okay. 6P surprisingly fit me -- I think there's enough room for me to wear a thick sweater underneath.

I might just scour eBay for a Colletta. If 6P fits me well enough to layer underneath, would 4P be too tight of a fit to layer? Again, I'm short, so I wanted petite sizing so that the length of the coat wouldn't overwhelm my frame, which worries me about regular sizing... but 6P would probably equal 4R, right? There are 2 Colletta coats right now, both in the same color, just one is 4P and the other is 4R! Yikes.

Funny though, when I searched by name it came up in the full price section. However, skimming through the sale section it also came up over there... glad I double checked. Deal would have been even sweeter with addtional percentage off **big azz sigh**

I just got some zip front flats in the green color and the cece flats in black. LOVE the cece flats. They fit amazingly and are super comfortable, even more so than my older J.Crew flats from 2 years ago. The Zip Front flats don't have elastic and seem really wide and stretched out. I really like the style and color so I am debating whether or not to keep them anyway, but they seem a lot cheaper than the black ones.

^honestly, I feel that since J. Crew started adding rubber bottoms, the quality of the overall shoe seems to have diminished. I can't really explain it. Also they don't fit the same as the leather sole flats.

Flats do go on sale (that's the only time I purchase them).

thanks for the quick response DC-Cutie! I just love the look of these flats. I wish I could try them on. Do stores carry this type of shoe or just the regular ones?

You're welcome :D these flats are very cute, the contrasting colors are very classic.

it depends, when you look at items online it will tell you if it's online only or avail in stores as well. But not every store carries shoes or if they do only partial.

I love them but I have yet to wear them bc (they are little snug:shame:-hence my siggy)
I can tell you they are not thick and can be worn well into the spring. And they appear a tad bit brighter online.

I normally create "looks" when I get new items and I've paired them a number of ways:

-w/black tissue turtleneck and JC necklace

-I paired it w/this shirt (I have both colors but I like the look with the white shirt) http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/shirtstops/casualshirts/PRDOVR~33933/99102188584/ENE~1+2+3+22+4294967294+20~~~20+17+4294967139~90~~~~~~~/33933.jsp

-I paired them w/white tee w/out a jean jacket (w/bold JC necklace)

-They are cute paired w/Chambray shirt (sleeves rolled up and JC jewelry)

-I also paired them with the Drapery Sequin Tee (in dark shadow) w/black patent CL-Super cute!!!!!

Because of the belt loops they can be worn with a number of skinny belts or w/out.

However, I can take IRL pic when I get home so you can get a better pic of the color.
