  35. Hi, I'm looking for the metallic lulu peeptoe heels from last year. I normally wear a 6 from J. Crew, but I've read several reviews that these shoes run rather big. Not sure if I would need a 5.5 (I've never worn a 5.5 before). I have the fleur peeps in a 6, and they fit great. Any suggestions? Does anyone have the metallic lulu peeptoe heels in a 5.5 or 6, never been worn? Thanks girls!!

    Second a wellesley cabled zip-up hoodie from Holiday 2006 item #78609 in what was called heather mushroom a light heathered brown in size medium. I have a picture if you think you have it.

    If anyone has either one please contact me at

  40. 1) Skinny patent double wrap belt, grey, S.
    2) Cashmere argyle V-neck sweater, stone sandalwood, XS. Item 15400.
    3) Silk indigo floral skirt, 0. Item 16701.
    4) Marbella mesh bandeau top, XS. Item 16559.
    5) Marbella mesh bikini, S. Item 16545.

    * If anyone has the Marbella bikini (both top and bottom) and would be interested in trading for the polka-dot bikini from earlier this season, I have one NWT in the yellow (sour lemon?) color in size S. It is the twist-front bandeau and the glamour style bottom. I would be interested in either style of the Marbella for a trade as the lemon color of the polka-dot bikini is just not working on me, and would prefer an XS top and S bottom but could do a S in both.

  43. Mags I agree the Lulu flats fit small. I'm a 9.5 and got a 9.5 and there was no way they were even going to stretch to fit. I didn't try a 10 though to see because it was a JCA deal on here. I've also heard the Lulu heels run big... and be curious to hear other comments because I'd love a pair myself but am a little gun shy because of the sizing.

  44. Hello JCAs,

    OT- I am going to be in the Philly area, and will be going to see the new arrivals tomorrow evening at the King of Prussia store. The PS there mentioned that if three people want to come with me and we all spend at least $125, then we all get 20% off our total purchase. I don't know how many JCAs in the Philly area up for going tomorrow evening at 7 pm (I know it's short notice), but I wanted to open it up to anyone else in case they want first (and discounted ;) ) dibs on new arrivals.

    If you and any of your friends are interested, email me at love2shop4bags AT yahoo DOT come so I can give the PS of how many people to expect.

    Hope to see you there tomorrow evening around 7 pm!

  45. Looking for:

    Rip-Stop from summer 2007 or 2008. Cargo pants, skirts, shorts or capris. Sizes 4-6. New or used, any color but yellow.

    I wear these for gardening and other outdoor activities (hence no yellow as the bugs like it too much). Thanks to my friend's young puppy most everything I had is nipped and holey now. :( Would like some new pairs if anyone wants to get rid of theirs.

  49. Mags: Hi there! I also own a pair of the Lulu ballet flats. I found that I was able to stick with my normal size. (Also, the length of the sole of the Lulus matched the lengths of all my size 9 in J.Crew ballet flats.)

    However, I remember reading comments from some JCAs who found it was better for them to go with a half a size up- and I could easily understand why. I think this is because the fit of the toe does seems tight, because of the leather. It's a bit stiff in the toe area, compared to the other fabrics J.Crew uses for their ballet flats.

  50. I'm looking for a Cotton Denim Safari Jacket in Small. If you've got one you're willing to part with, please let me know at kachoom@comcast.net. Thanks!

  51. Thanks to you all who helped with the Lulu sizing, I really appreciate it! Sounds like a 9.5 is the way to go first, then size up if needed. I do like a good bit of toe room, since I'm on my feet a lot at work.

    I can wear a 9 in driving mocs and regular flats, so go figure!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I forgot that I'd LOOVE either the wool or flannel roses dress (abstract or golden). Not sure if I'd need a 2 or a 0, but if you have either dress you can part with let me know. I see them on e-bay but they are nearly full price. Used is fine.
