Question about the Veronique dress: http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/dresses/eveningdinner/PRDOVR~37931/37931.jsp

I bought this dress today to wear to a wedding in May -- I really like the dress, but the tulle makes it extra puffy on me. I'm petite and I was wondering whether you guys thought it would make a difference if I had then layer of tulle removed?

Thanks!

Thank Eclipse & Cjy for the very sweet compliments.

Since my PS has finally returned (seems like she's been gone for sooooo long), I did some damage. She put together 12 outfits for me. I liked all but 1. Since it's almost midnight, I'll post pics between tomorrow and the weekend.

LOTS and LOTS of markdowns

Another great outfit, DC. I would never have thought to to belt the shirt like that. I'm going to try it. Love the ballet flats!

The Carlin runs about the same as the Lady Day. I have both in black. I have the Carlin in a 0 (my usual J.Crew coat size) and it fits well, my Lady Day is a 2 and is a little big, especially in the body. I prefer the Carlin, it is a more stylish and casual look whereas the Lady Day is much more dressy and a little more mature than I am usually going for. The Carlin I've had since last year and it has held up well, though I only wear it once or twice a week and only 4 or 5 months of the year. In general, I think that the double cloth holds up better than the stadium cloth.

They won't have any of these coats in store now unless you find a return or something left over in the sale section, but the chances of that are pretty slim. The stores do carry coats, but it depends which store what they will have (and most of the times an individual store won't get all of the colors or something).

Thank you so much for this informative reply! I love how the Lady Day looks on other ladies but when I bought one from ebay and tried it on, it looked horrible on me.....ok, maybe not horrible, but just not the right fit and not my style (I'm used to Mackage coats but have been looking to JCrew for some colored coats).

Are there JCrew outlets that carry past-season Carlin coats? Or is eBay the only way to go? I'm on the hunt for a Carlin in hydrangea or poppy or royal violet in 0 (or maybe 2) and I don't even see them on eBay.

I LOVE this outfit, DC. I'm on the hunt for a blue chambray shirt right now and you styled yours to absolute perfection. I may have to borrow this look once I find my perfect shirt.
