JCA "Help Style Me!" Weekly Post

This is the weekly "Help Style Me!" post, where we can share items we are having trouble putting outfits together with. Elaine (in this post) says it best, "You know, that thing you bought because you love it and you keep pulling it out and then putting it away without wearing it?"

Please share your J.Crew item (either that you own or are thinking about getting) that you would love help creating an outfit with.

Also, please help out by offering your styling advice. Feel free to include links to your blog (where you incorporated that piece) or to Polyvore (where you showcased an outfit with that piece). Thanks in advance! :)

  1. Finale sale is back.

    New promo -- use MUSTSHOP for 20% off final sale items. Good thru Wed, 12/28. There's your after-Christmas sale, too, I suppose.

  2. Of course I meant final sale, not finale. I always add an e on that when it comes to the J Crew sale. Who knows why.

    So glad I ordered things I wanted to try before final sale kicked in. Recvd the black Greer platform booties and they're very comfortable. I took my most common J Crew shoe size of 8, as opposed to 7.5. They're black and don't have a grey tint like they do in the online pic. Probably keepers.

  4. Final Sale is here again so no more sale-shopping for many of us I am sure.
    I'm also glad I ordered a couple of things to try before it came back.

  5. Yes, I got most of my items prior. Still looking for bootcut cords, but the color selection this year anyway was not that great so I'll let these go this season and not stalk.

  6. It was inevitable to see Final Sale appear today like some old, shopworn popback.

    I'm not even looking. I have a huge box of returns to ship right after Christmas. Sending back a lot more than I kept lately and totally turned off by the terrible quality.

  7. Ugh, final sale. I won't buy. Unless, of course, that elusive mixed media skirt pops up. I'm buying that no matter what!

  8. To add insult to injury the FS is only 20% off when we had 30% off and no final sale for nearly a week. I guess the joke is on you Jcrew as I certainly won't be shopping FS.

    Happy Holidays to everyone!

  9. I hate that they send an email saying final sale is back! It not exciting and no other retailer does it as much as they do... Many of the prices didn't get cut and I got lots of sale
    Items last week at 30 off even two coats for under $120! I would love to snag the glen plain no 2 but I will go in store for that.

  10. I honestly hope they don't make any money today ... This pisses me off

  11. HELP! I've got a skirt that is very much like this ( http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/skirts/pencil/PRDOVR~58261/58261.jsp ) but kelly green. It's made of thick wool. I am very tall and slender, with curves, and the skirt stops at the back of my knees. I am 27 and I teach at university, and so I can go a bit formal. For the Holidays, I can also go festive. What can I wear with it?

    It's been sitting in my closet for a year, but it's truly a gorgeous piece!
