Go 'head.... you know you want to 
Don't feel bad yellow, due to DC and Tall, I now own 2 dresses and a skirt I didn't need, but wanted really bad! 
Bryce Dallas Howard wore the Delphinia maxi dress from last year! I got it to wear at a wedding, so nice to see someone wear it a year after. I would never have thought it would look nice as materinty wear, I wore it with the belt super cinched. http://celebrityfashion.onsugar.com...-Howards-Dress-2011-MTV-Movie-Awards-17729539
Hi All! So I'm pretty new to J. Crew... but I really wanted to stop wearing everything from Express to work every day! So I was looking into skirts/dresses/suits from J. Crew. I really don't have much time to go to the J. Crew and try a bunch of these on... so I was wondering how their sizing is...? I'm generally a small for tops at Express and a size 4 or so for bottoms at Express...
I'm specifically looking at these:

I was hoping to order them online, since they are on sale, etc. Any thoughts/responses? TIA!

I would say (from my limited experience with Express sizing in the last few years) that J.Crew runs smaller, maybe as much as a full size. I would say in tops I would probably buy an XS or S at express and I buy an XXS or XS at J.Crew. Bottoms may not run quite as big but it is going to depend on the specific pair.
Also, unless you are in a major metropolitan area or somewhere else with a huge J.Crew, don't bother going in to try this stuff on because a lot of J.Crew stores don't carry suiting in store.
Ah... that explains why when I went to the J. Crew store nearest to my apartment, I couldn't find anything.
Blah. Maybe I should try ordering them online and seeing how they are (hopefully their return policy/service isn't horrible).Oh yeah--and thanks for the info!
(I'm generally a size 4 and S for tops at Anthro as well, if that helps... I really don't shop at many places, huh?)
Why am I super late? :shame:The Blouson dress is so cute!

This weekend I went shopping with some friends and the SA was wearing the Blouson dress (black/white) and I fell in love. Come to find out it's sold out and on back-order online. I did manage to order it on-lline with an expected shipping of July 30th
Also the size 6 is GONE!!! I'm hoping the 8 won't be too big. The 4 would be wishful thinking at this point (although, I'm dropping weight I'm afraid the 4 might be pushing it because I'm more athletic built)
I tried on the pink version, it's cute but I feel the black/white one can be worn into the fall and early winter with tights and cardi's/blazers *sigh* The SA was rocking it with a jean jacket/patent thong sandals and JC jewelry-super cute!

I really wanted to love this dress but I felt like an inmate in it with the black and white stripes. I just don't think horizontal stripes do much for me even though I am small.

I just wanted to let you all know that there is a free shipping code starting today with no minimum. The code is FREESHIP and it is good through Sunday. I posted it in the Deals thread too.

You know what, you might be right! I tried on the pink one (really pretty) so I have no idea what the black/white one will look like on me
Does anyone know when they'll do additional 30% off sale items online? They used to do them almost every other week but I haven't seen any additional discounts lately.
I'm wondering this too. I have a couple things I've been eyeing on sale in the store but want to get the extra 30% off before I purchase. I hope they're not cutting back on the extra discount, or else I'll be cutting back on my shopping unless they start designing some amazing, higher-quality clothes.
