I love this coat, although I don't own it. Since I live in Southern California I figured I don't need another wool coat, but with the 30% off outerwear I am very tempted. What color did you get yours in?
I was just coming over here to ask if anyone has the bow coat or has tried it in the store. I'm thinking about ordering it today while the 30% off outerwear deal is still on. I'm wondering if it's warm enough for the entire winter. My current coat is Marc by Marc Jacobs wool/polyamide blend, and I'm wondering if this one would be comparable. Does anyone have any feedback on this? I would really appreciate it.
I got heather acorn and black. Couldn't decide on a color so I ordered both to decide in person. I think it looks great in all the available colors!

I haven't received mine yet so I can't comment on warmth. My initial thought is that it's probably not super warm...I think it might be good for fall/early winter when it's not too cold. I will update after I receive it.

There's a detailed review of it here:

I have it!!! Got it in cabernet about 3 weeks ago. It cost more than so I called yesterday and got a price adjustment. I have worn it twice and got compliments each time. I love it now but at first I wasn't sure cause it's not fitted so it kinda bunched up in back. What color did u get?
I just want to retract some of my statements about the cashmere. I ordered a cashmere shawl collar sweater during the 25% and it is AWFUL. Nothing like the cashmere sweaters in my closet, even the ones I bought last year. This one is paper thin and has terrible drape because of it. It is too big for me but I wouldn't like it even if it fit. Very short, wide, and boxy. It did not feel like cashmere, there was no softness or plushness. On the other hand, the color was beautiful (the dark green- pine maybe).
I am disappointed because I love sweaters and there are none at J.Crew right now that speak to me except the > $300 ones. Bummer.

Is j crew factory shipping notoriously slow? I placed 2 orders, one has been sitting with the status "released" for 2+ days, the other isn't even showing up in my order history. I hope they ship soon, I'm especially looking forward to getting this sweater

Yes! I placed an order Sunday night, paid for overnight and I still have not received delivery. Customer service said maybe Thursday? They did credit the shipping fee and also sent a $25 gift card.... Orders placed 2 weeks ago finally arrived today.
Btw, I've had many issues with shipping in the last year - missing items, wrong items received, not delivered on time, and also missing items from returns. I order at least once a week and have had a mistake on every single order for the last year. I am almost done banging my head against the wall.

I placed an order on black friday and the next day they emailed me to say my items were out of stock. When I emailed customer service about it, the rep said one sweater was gone but that the other was actually still available. And she only offered me free shipping even though they had a free shipping promotion going on already lol. I wasn't very pleased but I really want some good sweaters so I have since placed the other 2 orders. Hopefully our stuff gets to us sooner rather than later!
I've had a lot of shipping issues this year too, but I couldn't decide whether it was poor customer service or just me ordering way too much stuff online
Just placed an order with the 30% off. 
Vintage cotton long-sleeve tee in White and Kelly Green
Women's camp socks in Navy and Ash
Heartbreaker sweater in Lavendar Burgundy
Flannel sleep pant in gingham grey
Mila cap toe leather ballet flats in Admiral Blue - really excited about these. I wish they still had the green ones available.

Went to the store last night to return a few items from a pre-Black Friday online order and ended up walking out with not one, but three Schoolboy Blazers (Modern Red, Dark Grape, and Festival Blue) because the manager told me they were marking them down from $139.99 to $89.99 - then there was a 30% off sale (Final Sale) and my student discount. Needless to say, I only just got into J.Crew a few weeks ago and I now have all the wool Schoolboy Blazers a gal could need.
Other items seemed destined for markdown: Some Cafe Capris, skirts, and a coat. I wish I could be more specific than that, but I didn't have a lot of time to look over the markdowns sheet that the manager placed down to assist me.

I am getting ready to order a pair of the Martina wedges but I need some help with the sizing, please! I can wear anywhere from an 8-9 inn shoes. My revas are always a size 9 but I am afraid a wedge in a 9 would be too big. The jcrew factory wedges in an 8.5 gapped at the sides, so I was thinking an 8. Online it says to size up. Any suggestions? Always, which is better for casual wear, the patent or suede? Thanks!
