In the time I went to my bedroom to get my credit card, the item I had in my Factory shopping cart went out of stock!!! So annoyed. It was the Factory Skirted Dresscoat in viridian green..I've been obsessed with the color and everytime I go to buy it its either not in my size or sold out. Hoping for it to pop up again!

J.crew at tysons corner galleria in mclean, VA also has 50% off sale. If you are a big girl (size 12, 14 or XL, XXL or whatever) there is PLENTY left in your size - excursion puffer vests, Jules dress, and TONS of coats (Lady day coat in hot pink anyone?). No such luck the skinny gals, I hardly saw anything in a 0 or a 2. I did manage to snag an excursion vest, printed bennet chinos and a colorblock boy shirt.

Can anyone comment on how the TOOTHPICK JEAN IN GARMENT-DYED TWILL and the MATCHSTICK JEAN IN GARMENT-DYED DENIM are sized? I generally wear a 25 in sevens and 26 in citizens etc. but I have not tried these on from Jcrew and I wanted to order a pair of each online in cute colors on sale. however, they are final sale, so I thought I would ask for an opinion before "guessing" about my size. Any info you ladies could provide on either of these would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much!!

I just found this thread and had no idea there were other J.Crew aholics around!

I've always worn a 0 in their coats and have a large selection of older ones. The only ones I've purchased this fall were 2 Boulevard Trench coats and they fit me great.....probably because of the belt. I ordered a lady day and Metro this past week in a O and they are HUGE! What's going on with their sizing? Of course they are non returnable.
With sweaters - Before J.Crew came out with the XXS I always wore the XS - now it depends on the style and fabric if I need to go with an XXS or XS. This makes it difficult to order online.
Another example of weird sizing IMO - the Tippi in Merino Wool XXS is equivalent to the Cashmere XS.

I think a 25 will fit you for both since I also wear a 25 in sevens. However, I found the fit to be quite weird in the twill pants. It was really high rise for me. And the denim was skinny through the knee but widened slightly at the ankle. I wasn't a fan of the look on me.

Also, I always think it's risky to buy pants, especially with J. Crew's sizing, final sale and online. Good luck!

I would get the 26. I am 24-25 in 7 and 25 in Citizens and I need the garment-dyed in 26. They run very small in the thigh and hip area.

Thanks ladies for the responses! Hummm..since it looks like sizing may be pretty subjective on these I think I will skip it. They are a good deal, but I hate ending up with final sale items that totally don't fit. Oh well!! Thanks anyways. I picked up a couple more of the merino cardigans that I love at a great price at least...
