Has anyone tried/own the Valentina Patent Pumps? If so I'd like to get sizing information. Thanks.

Has anyone see the grape color hacking jacket in person?
I pre-ordered the Ocean color yesterday. I fell in love with it in the catalog. I love the bright colors! I was wondering if the grape is bright in person. I'm also considering the vibrant flame. I'm looking for bright color jacket to wear with jeans.

may i ask something about jcrew please:
last time I was in the us, I bought quite a lot of stuff at jcrew, also 6 tank tops, size s, cotton
I assumed that they run true to size, they did, but only for a few hours
after wearing them for a few hours (and they just fit, they are not tight at all , just fit ) they get biiiig , they stretch out and get so loose , like a size xl
it is impossible for me to wear them , because they completely loose their shape just after a few hours
do you think i can return them ?? i have not kept the receipt ...
at least I would like to show them their tanks , they are completely useless, even if worn under another shirt or cardi
ironically the tanks are called "the perfect fit tank"
thanks for your opinion

I knoow!!!!!
I didn't do much damage only:
-Maritime blazer
-Lucinda blouse in vibrant flame
I stopped by the store today and picked up the cotton stripe-breaker sweater in navy and champagne and the cotton zip cable sweater in navy. They were both marked down to $29.99. I am hoping they keep up the trend of doing a percentage off of a certain category and that the next deal is on jackets!
More info on the Elodie blouse for this thread since I didn't see too much on it (and it is on sale! Love sillk shirts for at a reasonable price).
Tried on the Elodie blouse and wanted to check out graffitti green in person. As another poster mentioned, it isn't as dark in person because of the "washed" finished, and I decided against it because I want a green top in a vibrant, Kelly hue. The paradise blue is a pretty, periwinkle blue, i.e., with purple undertones. Didn't like the washed finish on this one too.
On the other hand, I thought the vintage champagne was GORGEOUS. It is a creamy but not beige white, and the sueded finish doesn't show up on the shirt visually though you can feel it in the texture. I will try to catch this one hopefully with an extra % off because I don't think it will last long with me being stain-free. :shame:
As far as sizing, I have a Blythe blouse in a size 8 and usually wear a Medium, but the Elodie blouse was perfect for me in a Small, and I do not wear my shirts fitted. I appreciate that it is a bit longer than the Blythe, which occassionally gets untucked when I wear pants that sit right above the hips.

Does anyone have experience with the Lady Day coat and its sizing?? I've been searching online but there seem to be conflicting reports as to whether it runs tight or true to size. I am 5' 4", approx 125lbs, 26 waist, 32c bust. Any thoughts as to whether a 2 or 4 would be a better fit for me?
Also, any thoughts as to whether the deep poppy (bright deep red) is too bright for winter?
Thanks ladies!!

The Lady Day runs small, especially in the chest and shoulders.
I normally wear a 6 at J Crew but bought a Lady Day in an 8 and it just buttons up. No layering big sweaters with that coat for me.
I'm 5'2, 118lbs, 32C as well and I have the lady day in a size 4. I am not a size 4 in anything else from JCrew and I couldn't not get a blazer on under this coat without suffocating. hth
Depends what you will be wearing under it. If you just want to wear a sweater and one layer, I would probably go with your usual size. If you want to wear lots of layers, go up. I find the arms to be tight on this, but nothing else. Also, I like my coats to be very tailored looking so I always err on the side of too small because I find big coats to look sloppy.
