I love the new arrivals. Usually I'd wait for a sale or promo but I had to get the Heart Throb skirt, so pretty. Does anyone use the Brompton hobo for a work/everyday bag?

I bought the matching blouse last night! Good that you snapped up the skirt. The SAs are predicting the heart stuff is going to fly out just like the heart sweater did.
 
I picked up the heart throb blouse yesterday and it's super cute! At first, I found it a bit expensive but I was also returning the Talitha blouse so I decided to get it.

The heart throb blouse also has a bit of stretch to it.
I also grab a pair of blue/white mini houndstooth (type of print) cafe capri's (not online). I'm not sure if I'm going to keep them.

My store didn't have it, only the iPhone cover! I was sad but it's a smaller store so maybe they won't get it.

Yay - another one! I love the stretch! Makes it more casual and easy to wear.
 
I am so disappointed at the quality of the last coat I bought from JCrew, I bought a coat in Dec and I have worn it a handful of time, since it really doesn't get that cold here, I noticed the seam of the lining has come apart at the sleeve. Do you think if I take it back to JCrew they can send it to alterations to get it fixed?
 
I picked up the scalloped skirt in both colors...
The royal purple is much brighter and more jewel tone and the other color is more a light charcoal grey.

The jacket is beautiful, hoping to get another color next month, maybe grey or navy.

I would think so, just explain to them what's happening. I've never had a big issue with the customer service at jcrew, seem to really try to make customers happy.
 
Hi ladies. Can someone please help me with the Hacking Jacket sizing? I have several J Crew jackets/blazers and most of them are size XS or 0 (although, many of them were taken in at the waist by my tailor). I often find that sleeves run a bit long for me. I am 5'3", 34C bust and about a 24" waist. I don't know is I should order 0, 00, or petite sizes?

I'm 5'2" and typically a size 0 but I'm wary of their petite sizing because their sleeve lengths are too short for me. The Hacking Jacket has a slimmer fit than the Schoolboy Blazer so I'm guessing their 0 might fit you well. Best bet is to get the measurement through their Chat - the customer service is great!
 
I did some MAJOR damage yesterday in store. I am banned for awhile. I think I have the cafe capris in almost every color! LOL! I also got the school boy blazer (why haven't I ever tried that on before!), a blue hooded rain jacket (love the fit) and a Tippi sweater in vibrant flame. I still have more stuff to get, but I have to wait.

Great haul!! Don't you love the cafe Capri pants, they are great!

The jacket is the Matinee trench. I HIGHLY recommend it!!

So sorry to hear such disappointing news about declining quality. May I ask which style this was? If it's their new Metro or Townhouse coat styles then I may just return mine (don't want that lack of durability as I want my coats to last multiple seasons).
