I hear ya on the scarf being hard to style. It's on my wishlist but it's so hefty I couldn't get in on comfortably and doubled in the store. I love that it is 100% wool and not flimsy.

Yes, I love that it is so thick and warm compared to most of their other scarves, but it makes it a challenge to wear/style!
 
I tried on the stovepipe trousers in the check pattern today (only colour they had in store). Surprisingly I was able to fit into my regular size-in fact, they seemed to fit a bit better than the 1035 trousers I also tried on. I wasn't a fan of the fit-it said slim and tapered but they looked quite large (albeit straight) from the knee down.

I picked this skirt up from the sale...but not 100% sold on it. I've got 4 or 5 colourful pencil skirts already, so I thought I'd switch it up with a print. But I'm not sure what to wear with it since it has blue AND black in it...

I bought a similar blazer from Zara that has red elbow patches. I have a pair of red dress pants from Gap that I'm going to pair it with for work. For the weekend, I'd try a pair of colourful skinnies in another deep tone like plum or emerald-would make a really nice but unexpected colour combo!

I have this skirt and wear it with a black three quarter sleeve crew neck J. Crew cashmere sweater, black and white pumps, and pearls. Since the skirt is really the focal point, just keep everything else pretty simple and it should work.
 
As a recently converted Jcrew-aholic, I got a Schoolboy Blazer in wool during the Thanksgiving promo. For those of you ladies who own one, how many seasons could I wear this? I live in a pretty warm climate where it's mostly hot and humid for a majority of the year, and then "winter" hovers mainly around 40s-60s. Could I wear this blazer comfortable in 80 degree weather? What other fabrics does J.Crew usually make the Schoolboy Blazer in?
 
The cyber monday deal appears to be 25% off and free shipping on any order, no minimum, with code MONDAY.
However, when I try this to buy a tie for my husband, it says the code isn't valid, even though it shows the discount on the first checkout screen, then not on the next one. ??? It's not a 3rd party brand or anything, so I think it's a glitch. I guess I'm not buying anything.

Probably not. I don't wear mine unless it is 70 or below, and then is still end up taking it off outside probably. They make lighter ones in the spring/summer: eyelet, chambray, seersucker, and linen. I would recommend one of those if you live in a hot climate. I wear my eyelet one even in the summer here when it is 80ish, but no hotter.

Adorable! Love the blouse especially.
 
thanks cookie03, m45ha, jellybebe and phi!

the blouse is actually from MNG/Mango (a spanish brand although i think it's reached the states already)

cookie -- post pics :D

jordanjordan - I ordered the navy (bo-ring...i know). Will post pics when it arrives. i am looking forward to it due to the claim of it being a very warm coat. I'm a wimp in low temps.

Thanks- can't wait to see it! Navy is what I want too. I had the one from 2007ish that was beautiful but it was knee length which I don't like so I got rid of it.
