I think the wrinkle factor is swaying me away from the Driftwood blazer.

What about this: Double-breasted Bonnie blazer

Mine is really wrinkly, I hadn't thought about that. The Bonnie blazer is super cute but I think the double breasted makes it a little more dressy than I was looking for, and it's wool. Why is everything wool! I want something that will last me through until May, that I can wear as a jacket on cool evenings or as a third piece during the day until it gets too hot.

The driftwood blazer keeps poking me too, it is really scratchy inside if I put it on with something without sleeves.

the Bonnie is seasonless wool (similar to their Super 120 and 150 suits), so you can wear it all year round. I picked up the black today and ordered it in grey.
 
hi fellow 'holics! i need sizing help please! sorry in advance for the long post!

i'd like to get a banquette dress in the super 120s. i had one sent to me in a 2 (i live in canada so there are no B&M stores) but it was quite big up top, waist and hips were loose so i returned it.

all of my jcrew dresses are now too big for me so i have no frame of reference with respect to dresses. i have the boutonniere blazer in a 0 (fits with room for a blouse) and the double serge skirts in 2P and 0 which fit perfectly. i'm a XS in tees and cardis. my 1035 trouser in wool flannel pants are 2P and a bit loose, but the 0P were a weeee bit tight around my waist. so the question is would a 0P in the banquette be too small? thank you!

I figured it was like the 120s, which I for some reason really don't enjoy. I dress more on the casual end of the J.Crew spectrum (in grad school) and find it a lot easier to dress down something that is more textured or is cotton than the really thin seasonless wool. That's why I like the driftwood one so much, just the color is strange.

0P is no smaller than 0, the sleeves and hem are just different lengths (and maybe the darting somewhere else? not sure). I have found J.Crew suiting dresses to run HUGE. I wear a 0 in the 120s pants and skirts (and pretty much all other J.Crew bottoms) and I had to get one of the suiting dresses from winter in 0 taken in a LOT. I would think the 0 would be fine.
 
Right! I've posted about that a few times. But I've learned, to save links or search for the item by number/name.

Two items I was looking at yesterday have been removed, the matinee trench and something else, but I had them bookmarked! I also noticed a lot of things are on "promo" for 10 dollars off or so, which means no 20% off. I will just order them all with the red phone so I get my free shipping which is close to 20% most of the time anyway... you can order red phone items on promo and get free shipping, just not sale right?
