I am thinking of getting the featherweight cotton cardigan (#41103) in yellow and beechwood during this promo. I'm torn between getting a third in black or getting the Jackie in black. Any suggestions?

How slim is the nouveau blazer? I remember buying the wool peacoat in a 2T last year, and it was huge (unfortunately 2T is the smallest tall size). Contemplating if the tall suit jackets will fit me at all.

Help please! I am going to Vegas next month and I need to put together some J.Crew outfits (since that is pretty much the only place I shop at this point) that will be appropriate for a nice dinner. I am not talking formal or anything, but something appropriate for a dressy restaurant in the evening in Vegas.

I am open to anything J.Crew, the only restriction is that it has to go with some sort of flat shoes (or <1" wedge shoes). I am willing to buy new shoes if I need to, but I have a pair of black flats I love so that'd be cool if it went with those.

Help please! I have been to Vegas twice before so I know what most people wear but it is totally not my style so I am having trouble pulling something together.

I wanted to add I am used to dressing conservatively and casually (jeans / tank / cardigan) so nothing too over the top, I don't want to be uncomfortable.

I was thinking maybe this, but I don't know what to pair it with:

Or this? or is this too daytime?

I also LOVE this dress but I think it might be too bridesmaid... they have it in cotton in dark gray at my local store, would that be better? I didn't buy it yet because I don't like strapless but I am coming up short!

I have an earlier version of the sequin top and I pair it with dark skinnies or white jeans. You could also pair this with a dressy pair of shorts and a nice jacket/cardigan.

That blousey shirt seems more daytime, but might look nice with trousers and some killer heels.

I like the dress, I don't think it's too bridesmaid. Dark gray cotton might look much more casual, I'd have to see it.

BTW - did you ever order those swimsuits? How were they?

I know. I'm so excited to try them on (though I'm not quite sure if I am "beach body" ready yet so that will be another story).

Any other suggestions on something J.Crew to wear in the evening to dinners (in Vegas)? DF and I are not clubbers so we will just be going to dinners and probably a Cirque de Soleil show or something.

The main problem I am having is how to be "dressy" in flats. DF will probably wear nice jeans and a button up or dress pants and a button up depending on the place, so I need something comparable. I don't think we want to go anywhere that requires a suit or jacket (we are just casual people).

The confetti sweater and dress are both great pieces for dressy/casual. The dress could look good with flats, and the sweater with white jeans and flats. DC-Cutie has a mod shot of the sweater earlier in this thread, and it's TDF!

This last link is a styling suggestion. You can get a sequin skirt (very Vegas) and dress it down with an oversized top or sweater. This would look good with flats.

You could always wear suit trousers with whatever shoes you normally wear and a fun top.

Since Addictista brought up the confetti sweater, I just posted a pic of me wearing it in the What Are You Wearing thread. That would be a really fun piece to wear in Vegas.
