She wears it very nice, imo. I wish I had grabbed this jacket in the fall, I hope they re-do this jacket again.

Also, try the Schoolboy Blazers. They are a little shorter than the Hacking. I just purchased my 5th Schoolboy blazer. I have classic navy, chambray, cerise linen, white linen, and festival green linen. I want the sunny yellow linen too, but I think I've already done too much damage:shame:
 
Hello!! Is the sizing for jcrew pants pretty consistent? I'm usually a size 4-6 & I bought a pair of Capri pants that were a size 0 ....I'm thinking of buying another pair online but I want to make sure the sizing is the same.
Thanks!!!

I think if you are buying the same style pants then yes the sizing is consistent. Certain styles seem to run fairly big. As you mentioned the Cafe Capri (in both wool and cotton) requires sizing down a size maybe two. I tried these on in store and then bought a pair online. I sized down from a 2 to a 0 in the wool Cafe Capris and the fit was perfect. Some of their other pants, such as the Minnie also seem to run big in my experience and also according to many ladies on this thread.
 
Thank you weibaobai and jesscat!

Ive been obsessed with them since they appeared in the look book. I know the cafe capri is available online in this print, but no sign of the shorts.

Try the black! They are tight at first and then will relax just perfectly. I'll look for some pics.

I finally went and tried them on today in the black, and I love them! Thanks for the suggestion! (I still loved the purple...will have to try those on again at some point!)

I originally tried a 4 but it wrinkled weird in the area where my thigh meets my groin (for lack of a better word) - but the 2's were perfect! I just need to shorten them one inch and they'd be the perfect length. They really do look very Audrey Hepburn!

The cafe capri wasn't so flattering on me though...maybe because they had more structure than the Minnies? Anyway, just in case anyone else is comparing the 2!

Great! I live in my black and navy pairs! All hail the Minnie!
