*Why can I not find the "help you find" button/link on their website?? Am I blind? I know I've read about it, but all I see is the "help" link, where among other things they offer to track down an item if you use the red phone in stores.

ETA: I've just poked around on the thread and it looks like maybe it's not a link, but that you have to call Customer Service and then ask for the "Help you Find" department. Is that right?
 
Sometimes our best fashion moments happen when we go outside our style.

1. Wear them with skinnies - although that one was obvious. Either have a slouchy sock showing at the top or roll your skinnies up a little. The boots would also be fun with the Waverly Chino rolled up.

2. Wear them with bootcut jeans - that will definitely be a tomboy look.

3. I would wear them with slouchy socks, leggings, and a big cardigan like the Infinity over it. That's a fun weekend look.

4. They might look really cool with a fuller skirt and sweatshirt look - like the look on J.Crew's homepage today.

That's all I've got - I defer to DC for real styling ideas - she's the Queen of J.Crew styling! :smile1:

Thanks! Anyone else? I was thinking with the skinnies or maybe skinny cords but I dunno... they are really out there for me!

What about with Minnie pants? Would that look stupid?

I've only done it once, and when I did I called and they located the item. I didn't know you could do it online.

I know you want other opinions, but with the Minnie pants it would depend on where they hit you because I don't think Minnies would look good rolled. You would have to try them on and see how they lay in relation to the boot. Hope this helps.
 
Which cardigans do you girls have? I always wear my black terry Juicy jacket over everything and I want to branch out to some J. Crew cardigans. I have the jackie cardigan already but I want something longer/warmer. Which ones do you think go best with casual clothes like a tee and jeans?

I adore the Infinity Cardigans: http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/sweaters/merino/PRDOVR~27925/27925.jsp

The jackie is cute, but like you, sometimes you just want something longer. The infinity has a nice weight to it, no bulky but not sheer.
 
that's a new sweater, I believe it's taking the place of the Infinity. Seems to look the same, made of Merino wool and has the same 14-gauge knit. But, I haven't seen it in stores.

I tried it on this weekend at my store, and it seems a little shorter than the Infinity. I actually like it better. I didn't buy an infinity because the sweater and arms seemed ridiculously long, but I plan to buy an eden. I am going to go with the light gray just to throw on with anything!
 
Here is a picture of me with Minnies and desert boots (and the Quincy tartan shirt- SO cute). What do you think? I really want to keep these shoes but they were expensive (100) and I feel like I'm having to work too hard to make them work. I always have a really hard time finding shoes to wear in the winter aside from flat boots over jeans because I can't wear heels and my feet get cold (and look weird) in flats.

*Just wanted to say that you do have to call Customer Service. I asked for the HYF dept but the man who took the call initially wound up finding what I needed without having to transfer me. They take your CC info and send you an email to let you know when they've found your item in the store. Mine (the Poppy King lipstick) was found within an hour, and has shipped out to me already. :wlae:Yay J Crew!

I know what you mean, I wear boots all the time. Those look really cute and I think they're very close to a boot so you might wear them a lot(if you're ok with flats, my issue!). One question, are those Minnie's or Pixie's? Or maybe this year's Minnie's? They look so cute on you and that's not how my Minnie's fit(it is how my Pixie's fit and now I'm wondering about the fit of all my pants, ugh). I love the shoes though.

They are Minnie's, I bought them last fall. The Pixies didn't look very good on me, and were really really long even though I am 5'9"!!
