What a bargain! Especially on the shoes. I bought so many shoes from J. Crew the last few months or so. The prices are insanely cheap for made in Italy shoes. I have a stock pile of them now in my closet! :smile1:

Thanks! I was wearing the snakeskin flats today and I think they needed a little break in time but not bad considered I walked 2-3 hours in the city with them :graucho:.
Went to two more B&M and got No. 2 pencil skirt in double-serge cotton in neon pink for $18 and Scout Chino in light khaki for $10.
I officially went through all the sale items in NYC :roflmfao:.

What does everyone think of the mini city skirt in linen? I´ve had my eyes on it for a while and just managed to find it (in neon azalea) but I´m not sure. I have this skirt from zara that I thought was quite similar. What do you think, should I get the J Crew one? I do like it. I´m just not sure if they are too similar. Your thoughts will be greatly appriciated!

has anyone noticed their No. 2 pencil skirt in double serge cotton stretching out like crazy? I bought 2 a few months ago and they stretched out so much! Even after taking them to the dry cleaner, they didn't shrink back. I know I lost a pound or two, but to have my skirts not fit anymore is crazy. any suggestions either?

Mine haven't really stretched, but I have noticed that they wrinkle like crazy throughout the day.

Defitely. That and they are not all sized the same. I had to buy different sizes in different colors, and even within the same color different ones fit differently.

I'm so happy you found this to be true too! I thought I was just crazy because I fluctuated between a 00 and 0 depending on the color.

I ordered a pair of Mona python printed pumps a few days ago when sale was still an extra 75% off and they ended up being $25 from $248. I can't fault J Crew for their sales, they really do have amazing bargains! Now, how do I refrain from blowing every cent I have on the new arrivals?

No.2 pencil skirt in Golden burgundy

no stretching on my cotton pencil skirts so far...but i actually wash them in the washing machine instead of sending them to the dry cleaners--- i'll air dry them...no harm done so far!

However ...the slit length of this skirt seems higher than the other ones that i have!
