Hi ladies!!

I'm back for some more sizing advice!!
I am a v.comfortable size 2 in j crew skirts -but I could do a tight 0.. I really want to buy the Minnie pants in twill but am not sure about what size to go for?? Advice please!!

Love

As others have said, go with the 0. Even if they are a tad tight at first, they will stretch. I learned the hard way because I really need 00 but had to get the 0 Tall because they don't make a 00 Tall.
 
Oh no! My Schoolboy blazer obsession is back again with a vengeance:p I was in my J Crew the other day and I must own the camel blazer with gold buttons and the blue with gold buttons. I already have the navy with gold buttons, 4 linen (white, green, yellow, and bright red), and the chambray.

ooh!! i want a navy with the gold buttons this year to replace an old navy one. can i ask how they sized? are they the same cut as last year's schoolboy? thanks vhdos!

Wearing a J Crew tee

super cute! i have that tee and wear it to death! actually, i think i have those minnie mouse ears too! :laugh:

I wore my J. Crew abstract floral pencil skirt today. I was surprised it went on sale so quickly after being released in the Fall catalog not too long ago.

lovely print. i love it!

Okay y'all- I need some more help! After all the great ideas for dressed up jeans outfits I am hoping you can help with this too. I am going to a cocktail-ish party (the host will be wearing a dress and heels, but probably some of the guests more casual because it's a young group and at someone's home) and I need to pull together an outfit.

I was thinking something like the teddie dress and some metallic ballet flats, along with a statement necklace? Does that sound appropriate? DH has to Clem from work so will likely be a little more casual thank cocktail so I'd like to look nice but match him rather than be way more dressed up. As I've stated before, I can't do heels so I think flats are the only choice.

Does anyone have any other suggestions? Doesn't have to be Crew, in fact I'd prefer to buy the dress at H&M or something, and just get a nice crew necklace. I dot wear dresses ever so no pint in wasting my money on it.

Thanks in advance for outfit ideas!

I was at a J. Crew Factory store recently and the sales associate had on the cutest outfit. I didn't notice her shoes, but metallic flats would look cute with it. She was wearing the Factory version of the Teddie dress, but it was not the black, it was a modern red or something like that, and she had on the white bubble necklace with it. She looked great. That white bubble necklace looked sharp with the red/orange dress.
 
Has anyone seen the heart sweaters in any other color than teal and gray in the sale section?

there are some other colourways on j crew factory online - free shipping on your order with code FREESHIP.

the teddie dress is a great idea!! if you didn't want to do a dress, i'd go with a nice pair of slim black pants with a sequin or lace top with a statement necklace - kind of a spin on a tux or something to that effect.
 
Thanks- this sounds like a great option. Would something like the Minnie work, or is that too casual? Do you have a specific top in mind? I would love to be able to wear pants since dresses aren't my thing!!

Black Minnie with sequin top and black peep toe pumps or strappy sandals. If you really want to go crazy/chic - add a white blazer!! Gorgeous and reasonable Topshop one at Nordstrom.com
 
Just got the Baby Brompton bag in rainforest green. The size is perfect for a small bag that will still fit your wallet, sunglasses, etc. And the leather is soooo soft and thick! It feels really luxurious.

So pretty! Was it still FP? Is the strap long enough to wear crossbody (if so how tall are you) and have it hit at the hip? I would love to pick one of these up on sale.
