J Crew ~aholics Thread!

[DC-Cutie]

Thanks so much I need to start creating looks, when I purchase pieces...

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.

I'm kind of irritated with J Crew too..and how they are handling the shipping/weather related issues with pat short answers..just called and they were kind of rude.
My tracking has said " A label has been created but UPS does not have it in their possession"..since 2/1/11. I would think by now they would have it "in their possession" somewhere. Ugh.

^Could it be the weather? I know I'm waiting on some things that are held up because of it.

The other order I placed on the same day shipped Monday, from the same place, so I don't think so. And it was 70 degrees where I live on Wednesday, which is only a couple of hours from there... I'm not aware of any inclement weather in Virginia this week.

^ Oh..then that can't be it for yours..hmmm. I wonder what HUB mine came out of( is there more than one?)..as they are claiming weather issues..and it looks like it hasn't even left yet.

I start to worry after a week. You ordered it this Monday past, correct?

Taking a gamble on the black Eyelash tweed blazer:

It's $210 after the code...still not a steal, but I've been searching for a chic tweed jacket and I've always loved my J. Crew outerwear.

It wasn't carried in my store...does anyone have any experience with it? Positive, I hope

 

[tomz_grl]

^So cute. I love the zippers on the sleeves. Hope you enjoy it!

 

[janelovesyou]

What the heck. I didn't even get an email about the 30% off. Good thing I checked this thread

I ordered last Saturday, and it's 4:45 on Friday afternoon. I am one day from the facility, so unless it ships in the next 15 minutes it is not going to be here within the "3-6 business days" they keep harping about. Maybe if I call back after 5 they will finally believe me obviously it is lost or something!

It MIGHT be. I recall seeing only gray, but I think the button and cut were the same.
