Yeah the pencils have been crazy. I'm usually a 2 in just about everything, but can fit the 00 this season!

I bought that schoolboy in store. It is a bit thin, but I'm not complaining at the price I paid for it (129.99, 25% discount and 15% student discount).
This is interesting. A while back I looked at a blazer, the weight was nice and the fabric thick. I went back abut a month later to purchase it, the fabric was much thinner, like you said more like outlet quality. I didn't purchase it.
I inquired online and was told that it was possible j crew used a different run of cloth for the new stock.
Hope j crew isn't trying to pull a switcheroo on us.
I got the Toni tassel loafers in Adobe (black/cognac) but I'm not sure whether to keep them. I think they are beautiful, but I don't have many pairs of shoes and I wonder if they will be too memorable if I wear them often. Any thoughts?
Those look quite versatile, and I don't think there is anything wrong with wearing the same pair of shoes frequently. If you like them, keep them!
i'm wearing mine today! i splurged and they are just gorgeous. i think they will look great paired with dark skinnies and a blazer with a button down.

I think I am keeping them.
Loafers are supposedly "in" now, but it's hard to find a pair that aren't too masculine and aren't either drivers or smoking slippers. These fit the bill.
I agree about the Festival Blue Schoolboy. It is much thinner than I was expecting, but it is still very gorgeous and versatile. However, it looks almost like a summer blazer compared to my Hacking.
I wish they made the Hacking in a slightly lighter fabric, like somewhere between the Schoolboy and Hacking weights. I love my Hacking Jacket but it will be awhile before it is cold enough here to wear it.
I have the same ones and love them. I think they're beautiful and not too out there, so you can wear them as often as you like. My only comment is to wear them with a band aid on your heels for the first few times, they gave me horrible blisters. Hopefully they'll break in soon!
