I've already ordered it, so it's too late. The 00 was backordered until Jan I think - no thanks. I can always have the 0 altered. Most of my clothes need alterations anyways, so Im used to it.

You can call their 1-800 number and they will do a national search for your jacket and the second that your size is located they will ship it to you within 24-48 hours. I called because for some reason my paypal transaction was put on hold through the website and by the time I called to approve the order the fanfare jacket had completely sold out online. They suggested the search service but given the popularity of the item I didn't hold my breath. Within 24 hours a customer service agent e-mailed me that they located the jacket and the following day I received a tracking number. Oh, and the original jacket I ordered was also on backorder so IF the transaction had gone through I would have had to wait until January to receive it!

Thanks for the advice, but I don't even know if the size I ordered is not going to fit. I ordered the 0 because that's the size I always order. I will keep this in mind for future reference though. It's nice to know that they have good customer service:)

I mentioned before that I already own a J Crew wool coat. It's a size 0 (not petite) and it fits perfectly. I typically can't wear J Crew pants/skirts/shorts (too big) unless I have them altered, but everything else J Crew fits great. I also own several J Crew blazers in size 0 and they fit good too.
Unless their sizing has change recently, I should be fine. If the coat doesn't fit, I will just alter it:)

Their sizing has gotten bigger this season. My zero coats from last year fit but this years don't. I know you already ordered, just putting it out there for others.

Got some great deals today at the wharehouse sale in NC. Found several merino wool and cashmere sweaters, a trench, and some sandals for next summer.

Congrats on your awesome haul! I passed through on my way back but didn't get there until 5:30pm. Of course there was not much selection, but I did get a black cashmere long-sleeved tee for $55. Not too bad and definitely worth the quick stop. I added myself to their mailing list so I will know about future sales. I am only about 115 miles away.

Sorry for quoting you like this, but this makes me really wonder, I'm 112 right now and 5'7. Would 4 fit me or should I try 4 petitie or maybe a size 2 ? I been thinking hard trying to figure out when is the last time I tried something from jcrew and all I remembered is that things were huge when I tried them on.

If you liked your stuff tailored and more fitted, probably a 0. I am 5'9" and 115, so probably very close. In size to you, and I would get a 00 I'm the majesty and probably most of the others. Blazers are fine for me in a 0 for the most part. Unless you have unusually short arms for your height I would definitely not get a petite. Typically the ATMs are perfect for me in j.crew stuff and they are slightly on the long side.

Yes so was I glad to scoop those items up. I got there at 11 am as I was driving back from gatlinburg TN. It was really on my way back to Concord so it didn't seem right not to stop. Walked right in with no waiting. It was overwhelming for me and I left after 2 hours of searching. I thought these items were mainly from the regular store? I could have sworn I saw factory stuff mixed in too.

Does anyone have the Biella loafers? I ended up ordering them in 2 sizes since I can be either a 7.5 or 8. I have been on the hunt for the perfect loafers and I hope that they are the answer!

I am SO jealous of you that live near the clearance centers. Are the items you get defects at all or do they just randomly send current season stuff there? I see a few things (mostly new jewelry I am eyeing) on eBay for good prices but I am wondering why they have new items at the clearance stores.

WOW! Is there a list of clearance centers? May I get the location of the center you girls visited over the weekend? I'll be driving back to Eastern NC in January. I always take I40 to raleigh. Is the center along that route? I would LOVE to stop!!
