Right! I've posted about that a few times. But I've learned, to save links or search for the item by number/name.

HA HA I had one item, the oxford ballet flats in my shopping bag and they were still there. I had a link to the Avenelle cutout wedges ( I got black)so I was able to add those to my bag as well. Both of these items were not on the site but I ordered them and got 20%!!!! Take that J. Crew! :wlae:The flats were back orderded until May so I don't think they will re reduced much in the near future so I grabbed them now. I really want the wedges in the sienna color too but I will wait on those. Very excited.
Do their perfect shirts hold up well? Are they thin? I need one of those as well. Also would love too see the Thomas Mason shirts to see if they are worth the $$. Anyone know??? Cutie, any 411 from you?

I tried on some thicker leggings the other day with a zipper in the back upper area/they might have been alittle cropped too?...they looked like they were a new item but I can't seem to find them online...any ideas what the name of them might be?
Thanks!
I just found the Pixie pant and think that's it. I tried the reg. 4 and it seems like the knee area was off if that makes any sense...maybe I need to try the short instead.
Anyone have these?

I don't really like the fit of the Thomas Mason shirts and don't find the quality to be any better, so not worth it to me. The perfect shirts hold up really well and I love them.

They are the pixie and they switched the length recently so my store has both and they all say they are regular length but some are shorter than others. Very weird.

I have to agree with Jordan, the shirts are nice (I actually ordered one so I could feel it & try it on since they aren't in stores), but not worth the money. If you want to spend that money, might as well go to Thomas Pink.

On other J. Crew news, I must have spent a whole heck of a lot last year because I got a personalized card in the mail today from a J. Crew online associate, she is reaching out to be my online PS :yahoo:.

Also, if there are any DC area ladies interested in attending an event on the 25th of February, please PM me. **there is a 20% discount included :graucho::graucho: **

I just went to the Thomas Pink sink, yum!
I may get one of the J. Crew Perfect shirts in a color to see how they are, since they are less. For the cost of the Thomas Mason, I needed to hear a J Crew fan, so thanks However, I want a classic white shirt so TP may be the answer. Thanks!!
Congrats one your card!!!

Thank you sweetie!!! Your opinion means a lot to me. How do you like the shoes I got??? have you seen them???

I haven't seen one of the pairs you mentioned, but the Oxford Ballet Flats are SO cute. I saw them in store last weekend and had already been lusting after them online. I am very, very fair skinned and decided that the light color in them was probably not the best color on me, but if they ever go on sale I'm sure I'll be reconsidering them.

I recently got the cece flats and the zip front flats which seem to be of similar construction / silhouette and I love both of those so far (have only worn a couple of times) so I think you'll be happy!

Has anyone tried on the Matinee trench? Thoughts on sizing?
Click to expand...

I tried it on last weekend, I think it runs about a half size big at most, but the arms are shorter than most J.Crew stuff (though probably about normal length for other retailers). The hood is pretty big, but I kind of like that. I was a little disappointed in the feel of the fabric, it was kind of stiff which I wasn't expecting. I also didn't love the bright shiny silver snaps and zipper, which cheapened it a bit.

That being said, it is really cute and a great length, but I'm going to try and wait it out for sale price. I think it'd be great with shorts on a rainy day (it's not waterproof either, if you were wondering).

DC - Congrats on the card. It's probably a good thing I don't live in DC otherwise I'd be at the event spending away.

Does anyone know if the 25% off red card only happens once a year?

Depends on the year. I remember getting two within a six month span a few years ago, but I haven't gotten any in a couple of years. This year there has only been one.

Thanks for your input! I hope I like it. I had to order a petite which I don't think they have in stores. Hopefully the fabric will soften up with time.
