Anyone have any mod shots of these tees? The second is silk, first is the draped tee, also in a yellow/lime polka dot. Kind of obsessed with them (love shirts like this for spring/summer) but want to see how they fit before I order.

I feel like this thread has been dead lately! Where are all the fellow J. Crew-a-holics? haha.

Anyways. I love to do a lot of my J.crew shopping via ebay - I know my sizes in most pieces and it's all worked out well so far. Plus, I can hunt for things I missed out on the first time around. I just scored the Jules scroll print dress from Jan 2012 :) And I'm "watching" the coral scalloped dress that just sold out this season.

Sooo I'm here to ask. What are your J.Crew holy grail pieces?
 
I went on a mini-shopping spree this weekend for my 2 DDs. I went to 3 different locations with Crewcuts and found different things at each one. It's funny how an item can be on sale at one store, but not at the others or online. I think I am set with summer tops for them (hopefully). I just can't resist these great deals a especially with final sale gone online:p. I believe the store bought items are all final sale.

I agree, ebay is amazing. Unfortunately I don't know my sizes because I'm new to J.Crew and the closest one is about 25-30 minutes away (far for me! I'm used to having everything so close) and I feel awkward going in just to try on for size.
 
Can anyone comment on the fit/ sizing of the Glimmer Tweed Mini ? http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/skirts/mini/PRDOVR~40075/40075.jsp

I can have it sent to me from a store but I haven't tried it on. I wear a 0/2 in the wool pencil skirts but I haven't ever had anything like this. It does look a little longer than their previous miniskirts though. Does it run small or TTS? I know J/Crew is inconsistent with the sizing. If anyone can comment I would really appreciate it!

I must admit, my love for J Crew has dropped in a big way. The last few seasons have been let downs, so I've moved on to other brands like Sandro, Majer and the Kopples.
 
I have been a bit disappointed with a lot of what J Crew has offered for a while. I still love their pencil skirts and coats, but how many of the same shapes does one girl need? I would love to see more aline and full skirts and a focus on better quality. I won't even consider their tees anymore and find many other items that I put back just because they look poorly made.

That being said, I picked up some sheer dotted peasant tops around Christmas that I have been wearing constantly now that it is starting to get warmer and I bought the new merino flower and butterfly sweaters and am really enjoying them. Also the neon rose eyelet skirt that I mentioned in response to an earlier post is awesome.

Go to the store and don't be shy! It's better to go and get a real sense for your sizing so you'll have to do less buying-returning in the long run. This is coming from a person who had no qualms about ordering a lot of stuff from J.Crew.com to try on lately and has ended up returning a LOT of it. It gets tiring so I wish I had just been to try it on and then order the right size later once the price is right.
