I am guilty of this! I own multiple purples, blues, and greens in Jackie cardigan, Jackie sweaters, and tippi sweaters. But really sometimes light purple goes better then dark... Can't recall exact names of colors.

Ha! The colors are so vibrant. I have always been attracted to blue, so I could find myself with a collection of tippis in various shades of blue.
 
So this whole blythe retro jade situation is getting weirder. I just checked my email and J Crew had responded to the picture I sent earlier and called also called about and got resolved. They are now saying that the color in the pic I sent is the correct one?

I´ve always been so happy with J Crew but this is just strange. One repressentative is saying one thing (that the color on the blouse I recived is not how it´s supposed to look) and another one is saying the exact opposite. I mean what am I supposed to believe and should I even make an exchange when they´re now claiming it is supposed to have that coloring?

Your store lets you stack discounts?? Mine says it's one or the other. Boooo!

My store lets me stack them if it is 25% off sale, or outerwear, or something specific like that, but not if it is 25% off total purchase (a transaction discount as opposed to a promotion). I think that is the official policy, so you may want to ask to talk to a manager next time!

I would attempt the exchange. That does not look like retro jade. I just purchased a skirt in retro jade and the color looks nothing like the color of your shirt. Retro jade is sort of a bold, dark, aqua. Your shirt looks more like a grass green.
 
I think I am keeping them. :graucho: 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 have them in the champagne color -- I love them! Definitely a great buy. I love that they can be dressed up or down. And in the adobe color, they're definitely more of a classic. Definitely keep them!

I took a picture of my new wool retro jade No. 2 pencil skirt next to a tank top that I have in a true, grass green. Hope it helps:smile1:

Thank you so much for the pic! :flowers:

The retro jade color looks absolutely beautiful! It´s exacly what I wanted but looks nothing like the color of the shirt I got so I am definitely doing the return, I´m droping off the package today.

The green grass color looks pretty similar to the shirt, and while it is a really pretty color, it´s not what I ordered.

Crossing my fingers J Crew gets it right this time :sweatdrop:
 
Hi Ladies,

I have lurked in this forum for so long. I love JCrew and I buy things but gosh, you all have opened my eyes to things I never even payed any attention to. I am a Jackie Cardigan girl but now I like the Tippi sweater. I just ordered the colorblock Tippi Cardigan in the Green/blue combination. Love it!! I also ordered the gingham classic shirt from the Factory in the pink color. I received it yesterday and this shirt is too thin. I wanted to find out, is the mini gingham at JCrew thicker than this? I hope so, because I like a heavier weight shirt where I don't have to feel like I have to wear something under it. I appreciate your opinions in the differences with the Factory versus the regular. The factory can be hit or miss and that is what I don't like. Thanks again!! Chimicki:smile1:

Good to know! Looks like they should've stacked my discounts! Harrumph! Thanks for the info!
