Hmmm, the skirt I saw, that looks like the link you posted. Didn't have any black in it.

Oh well....

I know, it's weird.
I went back to look at the photos again and I guess I can see it.
The swirls in the paillettes look more blue than black. It looks great with denim!
Now I need to decide if I should keep it.. It's different.
I hate J Crew's vanity sizing! I'm a solid size 4, I have a small waist but my hips and thighs are not skinny. The x-small is borderline too big. I ordered x-small because that is all they had the day I ordered. They added a size small a day later,

and I ordered the small too. The small is going back.

you could always pay and send it back on your own. Then contact customer service, upon receipt they will credit you.

And at the time you return, place another order so you don't have to wait and risk it being sold out.

Thank you for the recommendation. I went ahead and shipped and asked them to locate me another jacket as well. It's highly unlikely that at this point in time they will be able to locate another jacket for me though :(

Thanks that it. Its the fanfare jacket. Let me know how the sizing is when you get it.

I received the wrong size- so I definitely think you need to size down at least 1 or 2 sizes. I also failed to read the description fully before I ordered the jacket and so I wasn't aware that the material was "felted wool". I'm not remotely a fan of the material...it really cheapens the look of the jacket. However, it seems to me as of lately it is impossible to pay less than $300 for a quality jacket. So, my quick take is that it looks fine...but the quality is definitely disappointing. I'm still in graduate school though, so this is as close to a Chanel-esque jacket that I can get under $300. :smile1:
