This is the weekly "J.Crew Reviews {straight from the JCAs}" post, to help each other share our reviews.So if you have recently purchased, or stopped by a J.Crew store to try on an item (or two) from J.Crew, maybe you might be willing to share that information with us in this post.
Also, this request is not just limited to clothes. Please feel free to discuss bags, shoes, jewelry, accessories, etc.
In particular, if you could mention a few of the noteworthy details like fit, size, fabric, and the like— that would be fantastic! Thanks in advance! :)
Some factory reviews here.
ReplyDeleteReviews of some newer outerwear, including the Tipped Peacoat, the Double-Cloth Slim Trench, and a not-yet-on-website longer trench, as well as the Collection Cashmere Waffle Colorblock Sweater, along with some other items, in this post.
ReplyDeleteAlso, just finished reviewing some items I checked out this weekend including a few Holiday items: the Jewel Neck Top, a pair of black/white print crazy pants, the Peacoat Popover, the Cocoon Coat, the Swiss Dot Blouse, and the pink Slim Trench in this post.
DeleteThanks for the great reviews. I am now considering the Cashmere Waffle Colorblock sweater. It looked so good on you.
DeleteThanks, D*ska! I'm glad to have found something that doesn't have the boxy shape so ubiquitous this season!
DeleteI can only see a few of the photos ? is it my computer or does everyone else not see most of the photos. Carolyn from Vancouver
DeleteI can only see a few pictures too
DeleteI can see all the photos, I'm using Chrome.
DeleteGreat reviews life as a cat. I love that colorblock sweater on you too.
Hey everyone, thanks for letting me know about the pictures. I tried viewing my blog on several different browsers and realized that some pictures weren't showing up in Internet Explorer because I was custom adjusting the sizes of the pictures. I went in and fixed the problem and I'm able to see the pictures in Internet Explorer now. Firefox and Chrome seem to be displaying them fine. Are they displaying now, through the browser you're using? Let me know if you still have problems seeing the pics and what browser you're using. Thanks a lot!!
DeleteI can't remember who but someone mentioned in an earlier post about how versatile the Boy Shirt in Snow cat is and I'd just like to reiterate that. It went from being just a lowly add-on in my quest for free shipping to becoming a wardrobe staple. I wear mine with jeans and leather jackets on the weekend and under sweaters and blazers during the week. It adds an immediate touch of fun to any outfit and every time I wear it someone wants to know where I picked it up. Both my mum and sis have ended up getting one along with my hairdresser and manicurist. You're welcome J. Crew, lol.
ReplyDeleteSide note: the snowcat boy shirt is on sale and I snagged it for $18 last night.
DeleteMy B&M did a store-price match + extra 25% off sale + student discount + waived shipping.
Anybody interested should snag one! I'm really excited to get mine.
ITA with this. I wasn't particularly excited about this shirt initially, but picked it up on a whim with an extra percent off of sale after seeing it on Slastena. I absolutely love it, and have worn it several times even though I've only had it about a week and a half. If you're on the fence, grab this one!
Delete@Lisa: What is the store price? It's $34.99 online. TIA!
DeleteIn store price is $29.99 I think? My b&m always does an in store inventory search and checks what the price is that way!
DeleteI agree, it's a versatile shirt. You can see another pic here.
DeleteReviewed the J Crew Toothpick Ankle Jean/Denim in neon violet HERE. It fits alright and the color is much more vibrant than what is shown online. In depth review and pictures via the link above.
ReplyDeleteHope this helps!

I've got the black and ivory Everlys on in my post today, I've had them for ages but only just gotten round to wearing them. Very comfy and classic, I'll have them for years - if they hold up!
ReplyDeleteTabitha, can you comment on the fit of the shoe? TIA!
DeleteY: I only have two pairs of 'American shoes', I'm a UK5 Euro 38 and these are 7.5 so I'm not much help!
DeleteI am US size 8 and 38.5 in European sizes, so it seems they fit TTS.
DeleteAgree, I am 8.5 and always 39 Euro.
DeleteWhen I tried the Everlys on in 7.5 & 8, my usual J Crew pump size of 8 fit the best.
DeleteThanks for your help, ladies. I'm a true 7.5, but take 37.5 in Miu Mius, Pradas and Valentinos. I'll order both 7 and 7.5 to try. Thanks again.
DeleteY: Oh I take 37.5 in Jimmy Choo, Prada and Louboutin, so you must be the same as me.
DeleteCan someone tell me what WWFIFY stands for? Thanks

It is quite the skirt!
A review of the Heavyweight Silk Bow Top here on my blog.

ReplyDeletePrinted Everly's review here - a gorgeous and comfortable pair, and tons of odder reviews here.
ReplyDeleteOlder, not odder. I do not have any odd reviews, lol.
DeleteHaha, I like the idea of "odd" reviews! Maybe that can be a new section on my blog, ranked by oddness!
DeleteJust posted reviews/pics of the Heavyweight Silk Bow Top, Sterling Skirt and Blythe polka dot here.
ReplyDeleteAlso, wanted to mention to watch your mailbox -- I got a tri-fold card announcing Factory with a little card with two unique coupon codes in it (20% off $125 and 30% off $200).
Bad news about the velvet toothpicks: after wearing only twice the velvet is rubbing off, right down to the fabric. I'm really disappointed that I paid so much for a pair of pants I can only wear twice. Also, the inside seams fray off the velvet and when you take the pants off you'll have a nice pile of velvet shavings to clean up. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteThat's terrible! I would take them back.
DeleteAgreed. Email or call them and they'll definitely help you out.
DeleteThanks for telling us! I really wanted them, but I guess I'll skip them now.
DeleteThank you for letting the rest of us know about that Lira. You should definitely call up customer service and vent about it.

ReplyDeleteI have never purchased a Blythe blouse (even on super sale) because I hate those cheap white buttons...is it my mistake or does the factory option have nice fabric covered ones(in the matching color of blouse) I almost bought the bright sun blouse but those white buttons made it look cheap...anyone feel the same. I guess I could change the buttons...but come on J crew...your are really cheap with the buttons. Carolyn From Vancouver
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, the factory ones do indeed have covered buttons. They are much nicer looking than those chintzy white plastic ones!
DeleteI actually got the Bright Sun Blythe even though I detested those cheapie buttons because I couldn't help it. Bright yellow has my fav color since I could remember. I did immediatley change out those grubby buttons for pretty mother of pearl looking ones like those on the featherweight cashmere short sleeve ruffle cardigan circa Spring 09. The shirt now looks spectacular IMHO. I have so many shirts and sweaters that I changed the buttons on (and not only J. Crew) that it now seems completely normal to me. I do it myself (thank you all girls Cathoilc school), so besides the pretty new buttons, there is very little extra cost on my part. I think I got addicted to doing that when I realized how new, beautiful buttons makes even the most basic shirt and sweater look more special.
DeleteI have posted a few reviews of the bird sweater and a few of the peter-pan collar shirts on my blog:

Just tried out CrewCuts sizing for the first time with this Maritime Shift Dress. Loved it and the 14 was just right.
ReplyDeletehttp://ouipetite.blogspot.ca/2012/10/crewcuts-maritime-shift-dress.html
Hi all! Recently found this blog but never posted. I have a question on the sizing of the snowcat boy shirt. My perfect shirt size is a 2, except for the black watch which I took a 4 in. The only boy shirt I own is the red/navy heartthrob shirt from last spring in a 0. I also take a 0 in the Blythe. Would you advise ordering a 0 or a 2? Thanks so much. I've found this blog very helpful (though my wallet hasn't)!
ReplyDeleteI would go with the 0 - I always wear 1 size down in Blythe/boy shirts from my perfect shirt size.
Deleteagreed. the boy shirt is a bit boxier, so you have a bit more give.
DeleteA Madewell Review here and lots of J Crew Reviews (including sweaters) here
ReplyDeleteCouldn't reply to the snow cat/boy shirt post, but I want to plug it for the larger/curvier sizes. It's counter intuitive, but as a 34DD hourglass the boy shirt fits me and the perfect shirt does not. The fabric is nice and substantial yet has a little give. I took a 10 in the boy shirt. For comparison my Blythe is a 12P. I'm short waisted but the boy shirt hits my waist in the right place. The best thing about it for a bigger bust is how the sleeves are set in (straight) compared to the perfect shirt.
ReplyDeleteI agree with this, too. I'm busty and short-waisted, and the boy shirt fits me much better than the perfect shirt.
DeleteYes to all of this - the Boy Shirt is great for bustier figures.
DeleteGeneration Kvetch - Thanks for your comments on the boy shirt v. perfect shirt. I am a 34D hourglass and am wondering - does the boy shirt have an oversized or slim fit? I prefer a slim fit, but sometimes run into the gaping front with the perfect shirts. I'd appreciate any thoughts on this from you and other busty JCAs. Thanks!
DeleteOT: Anyone else notice that the sale page still says "Enjoy an extra 30% off final sale items - use code MUSTHAVE." The code doesn't work anymore though - I tried, just out of curiosity.
ReplyDeleteYEah mine says that too. Oh well, guess it's just some technical difficulties.
DeleteCate O - I got the 30% page, too.
DeleteI wore my new Sheer Mint Hacking Jacket in double-serge wool to the mall the other day for a couple hours and came home to find the underarms, sleeves, and sides terribly pilled. Also, the interior chest pocket seaming is so thick (or the wool is so thin) that the shape of it shows through and sticks out on the outside of the jacket. The SA in JCrew even noticed it.
ReplyDeleteIt's a gorgeous blazer but it's too expensive to look like a rag after one wear. My double-serge hacking jackets from last year are still perfect. I wonder if I got a bad one or if the double-serge wool has changed and this is how they all are. I think I'm going to have to return it. Anyone else wear this blazer yet?
Debby: This is interesting because I had to return my blazer because it was too big in my normal J. Crew jacket size. My amazing online VPS thinks that the blazer I received was marked wrong. The new blazer arrives tomorrow. I'll definitely reply back here once I've worn it.
DeleteI just received my DS Hacking in mint, and I am so disappointed in the quality! It's definitely not as thick and plush as last years version, I just compared the two. I could see the lack of quality the minute I took it out of the bag, it just felt so thin and stiff. Love the color but not paying $$$$ for color alone, the quality has to be there. So upset that they cheapened out such a classic piece. I have the Herringbone Hacking in dusty jade, that appears to be the same as last years quality, I've worn it with no issues and it feels as thick as last years version. Sadness....
DeleteOh no. No, no, no. I was going to order that one with my rewards. I love (loved) it. I have last year's version in the camel, 'red' and black colorways and have been majorly crushing on the mint. This is truely a sad day. Why J. Crew? Why?
DeleteCate: Yes, I noticed that yesterday morning and again this morning on my laptop at home. It isn't showing up here at work. I was curious and tried the code yesterday a.m., too. Boo, didn't work. :)
ReplyDeleteIrl pics & reviews of 8 sweaters & links to other blogger reviews in this post.
ReplyDelete@Debby (reply not working)
ReplyDeleteI haven't worn my mint hacking jacket out but I was wondering - it feels so much thinner than last year's hacking jackets. I'm bummed to hear that my worries about it were confirmed. I've tried it on several times - then tried on my double serge hacking from last year to make sure I wasn't imaginig the quality difference. But the material really does seem flimsy. :( Too bad - it is a beautiful color.
OT- My friend is looking for the heart sweater (pink heart with green background) and we'd appreciate any leads to see if any store would have it in size SMALL. Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteA week ago, I swear I saw one in the Birmingham, AL store. I have no idea if it's still there, but there was only one or two left, and it did look like a small.
DeleteHave you tried asking J.Crew to find it for you?
See the painter crew-neck cardigan in crimson maple here!
ReplyDeleteI hope this is the right place to post this. My apologies Alexis if it isn't.
ReplyDeleteJCAs - What are your thoughts on Madewell? I am new to the brand (just made my first purchase - the lovely Camden satchel in burgundy; LOVE!) and am wondering about quality and such of the clothing, shoes, and accessories. The SA at my B&M described it as "J. Crew's more hip younger sister." I would appreciate any comments you have on the brand as a whole. Thanks!
I love their jeans, scarves and shoes. I've tried their denim shirts but they didn't have the wash I wanted, I know that it is also a particular popular item for the brand. In terms of sizing, I think they don't do the vanity sizing the way JCrew does and fairly consistent sizing with their dresses. HTH.
Deletepatmosjd: I've been really pleased with all of my Madewell purchases so far, and have found the quality of the items that I've received to be excellent.
DeleteIf you're thinking of trying more of the brand, now is a good time since the shipping and returns are free.
I've also been quite happy with Madewell. I've only bought tees & sweaters so far (still going strong after 2 years of regular wear), but they hold up much better than the JC tees (vintage cotton BOO!) & sweaters (pilly cashmere and merino!) I have.
DeleteThank you Joelle, FFM, and smarain! Interesting how Madewell doesn't have the same quality issues that J. Crew has on its items. Isn't Madewell an offshoot of J. Crew, or am I misunderstanding the connection?
DeleteI just bought a Madewell t-shirt w/a pocket in a pretty red shade. Feels more substantial than the vintage cotton JC tees and seems like it will hold up much better. However, even on sale, it was pricey for a t-shirt. Will definitely have to hunt for these on sale w/discount. But I wore it today and it was great. I think it will hold up much better tan the JC tees of late.
DeleteJruby, I don't know if you have a B&M Madewell near you, but (as with JC) the sales are much better than online. I've gotten my tees on sale for $10 - $15, and I *think* they often have 2 for $35 or something like that deals. Also, they have been running an add'l % off sale stuff several times when I've visited.

ReplyDeleteJust got my November Style Guide...like most things J Crew this year, I'm on board with the accessories/shoes...and not much else. What is up with Easter Egg colors for winter?! Lilac and buttercup yellow everywhere, baby pink as well. Thought process may have been "no one else is doing it..."; there is a reason J Crew! Spring will come in it's due time. Few highlights, gorgeous nudish pink Edie grand bag, two tone oxblood fuchsia little Edie, the Fair Isle turtleneck in greens is gorgeous to me, but not $650 gorgeous...J Crew is trying to grow up in the fashion world a little too fast. Lest they forget, when high dollar fashionistas wear J Crew they say, "It's J Crew, can you believe it?!" NOT "It's J Crew (dramatic pause)". This is a brand in transition, and they're doing it rather poorly at the moment. The green ribbon cord toothpicks are sweet and unique, but your bum must be in summer condition or you may end up looking like one of those lumpy plastic Christmas sacks your parents used when they were too lazy to wrap your toys...odd bits poking out in all directions. A print on a toothpick is NOT forgiving! The vivid jade, more foresty if you ask me, pencil in serge is beautiful...but I am a pencil skirt fiend who cannot be stopped; I could be totally biased and wrong on that skirt. I don't know about any of you, but I find tweed hard to pull off without looking like I'm going for granny chic...yet, the lady jacket in corkscrew pinks is quite the stunner. I could always buy it for my gran this X-Mas and admire it from afar. The hothouse dress is gorgeous, and if it has the right weight to it, could be a nice score for J Crew in their ever quickening race to the top of the fashion ladder. One note, I wish they would add more interest pieces to their special items such as the hot house dress. I'm sure it has a plain back. I'd like to see a nude mesh center panel with invisible zipper detail to spice it up, nothing low cut, just something else to look at other than the print. I'd love to see some full skirts from them, the Green Tinsel fabric on their no. 2 pencil would do well on a full skirt. Page 32, why does J Crew pretend the chiffon dot top is not see through...better yet, why did they MAKE IT so see through(shakes fist at sky)??? Moving on to the collection pencil skirt in brushed wool, in chartreuse, with a thigh high slit...I like; however, only chartreuse? J Crew, I realize you are striving to be chic, but give us a color option, and pairing it with a brown lady print sweater??...the model is laughing for a reason. Although, I would totally buy that sweater in ivory or red...again only one color option, and that color is an unfortunate shade of dried mud they beneficently call caramel (eyes roll out of head). I'm not going to lie, I will buy the polka dot sequin top in both colors (champagne and black), completely versatile and festive. The flame floral jacquard skirt in "dried papaya" (cue second eye roll, they roll farther away)...what to say...it's a digital print, an affordable alternative to the pointelle that is making the rounds at D&G right now...but I can't help to think that with a mix of cotton/nylon/silk, the only silk to be found may be in the washing instruction tag...I wouldn't put it past you J Crew! The moral of the November Style Guide story is this: For winter, J Crew wants you to douse your self in pastel, wear fair isle at every turn, and always, ALWAYS part your hair down the center!
ReplyDeleteThis had me laughing out loud! Thank you.
DeleteDitto to Cheryl's comment. You are right on the button too, HeatherISO.
DeleteI want to know who you know who sends you the catalog and I hope you didn't have to do anything too awful to get it.
DeleteAlso I want to see Dried Mud IRL.
Thank you for sharing. Also thank you for not sharing anything too gruesome.
Heather, that was brilliant!
DeleteI don't understand the easter egg colours either at this time of year.
Thank you all! The upside is all of these lovely spring colors will be on major sale come January...maybe J Crew IS looking out for us, lol!
DeleteI tried on the new rollout toothpick ankle jean in black and white geometric print today at my B&m. I had such high hopes because I looove the print but they did my thighs and legs no favors. I wear a xs/s, 4 in the cafe capri and I tried a 28 in these. They fit fine in waist and bum, but I didn't like the tight fit in legs. They don't have the thickness of a denim or fabric weight but are very close fitting and snug through bum, thighs and calves. I much prefer the look of my snowcat Bennett chino in a size 6 on me. Maybe if I wore these toothpicks like leggings with a oversize sweater to hide the fat. Overal very disappointed but I guess I didn't need 2 black/white pants anyway! Walked out with nothing after sp wouldn't match online price for dot tippi so I will continue to stalk.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone tried the (Collection) cashmere ribbed sweater? Is the quality good? Is the neckline annoying? Is the Heather Cabernet really a cabernet shade? (I found the "Heather Burgundy" shade to be too red, not a deep cabernet like what I'm looking for.)
ReplyDeleteThe heather cabernet is a dark rich wine color. Very pretty! I have seen it in another cashmere sweater. I ordered the ribbed cashmere in cabernet today and it already shipped so I can report back on fit .
DeleteMini, please do report back, I'd love to hear! Thank you.
DeleteI received the sweater today. The color is beautiful. The fit is boxy maybe a little on the big side. The neck lays nice and looks good, not bulky or weird . All in all I like it . It definitely has a slouchy look .
DeleteNeed help! Is the heather flax lighter than last year's heather acorn in the cashmere? I had the tippi in heather acorn but it was too browny-beige for me. The web site photo of the flax makes it look like a softer, creamier beige colour, but am I being tricked?
ReplyDeleteYes. It is much lighter than the heather acorn shade but it is more of an oatmeal than real camel. They had a camel in the cashmere last year, which is probably the shade you are looking for.
DeleteJoelle!!
ReplyDeleteThat heart sweater is on ebay... I'm not even lying!! size small- Bidding ends at about 7:30 pm today I think!
Thanks! I got in touch with a VPS so hopefully she can help me track it.
DeleteThanks ema - was looking for a lighter sweater for the cheetah skirt. So far, ivory, black and white, thought the flax might work!
ReplyDeleteOT: has anyone had trouble with their factory order? I placed an order on the 11th and it still has not shipped. Just called and they said they are having trouble with their email confirmation system. They also said if I don't receive my order in 4-7 business days, they will look into it further. Kind of annoying IMO.
ReplyDelete4 to 5 days after receiving an order, I got a confirmation that said it was being shipped.
DeleteSo yes, I would say their system is down!
Same here. Placed an order on the 8th, it "shipped" on the 9th, but the tracking info just says a label has been created. Very frustrating!
DeleteRandom question: When does J.Crew factory update its stock, is it at 6am like jcrew.com?
ReplyDeleteThank you for the help!
I got the November catalog! I'm working on scanning it right now. I'll post a few preview shots of my favorite pages on Feeling J. Crewzy first, and should have at least the women's section, and hopefully the entire catalog up on The J. Crew Archives within the day.
ReplyDeleteAdded the preview pages on Feeling J. Crewzy here.
DeleteJust finished uploading the full catalog onto The J. Crew Archives! Enjoy!
DeleteHelp!
ReplyDeleteI need a long blue cardi for fall. Is the Byzantine Blue merino cardi as purple as imagine looks on site. Or am I better to try Casablanca blue on Factory site?
I went to the store yesterday and tried on a few new items including a caftan that doesn't seem to be online yet and had the most cringe inducing price tag, some geometric print toothpicks and an interesting tweed jacket. The last two are in the new November catalog.
ReplyDeleteSee reviews on my blog here.
I love the title of your post! I haven't been into Jcrew much lately either but I did just buy anther vneck cashmere sweater. I do love the shape of this sweater and hope they don't change it!
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteCan anyone comment on the Nili Lotan chunky turtleneck sweater? The price is high but I love the look so much! It is a combo of Wool/yak/nylon. I am not familiar with yak. Does anyone know if this blend will pill? Thanks for help!
ReplyDeleteIs it me or is the sizing of the Tippi sweaters inconsistent this season? Picked up the gray, black, and burgundy in a Medium this weekend. The gray and black were fine, but the burgundy was so much larger on me than the other two. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteI finally decided to pick up the wool café capri in retro jade after the price hit just under $40 with extra 25% off this weekend. I had to size up to a 6 (usually a 4 in café capri). Not too itchy…wish they were lined…but what is new. The factory version is nice since they are lined, but I just love this retro jade color…thus why these went home with me.
I’m going to try to stay out of the store for a while since nothing is catching my eye. I’m still on a good high from receiving my icon trench in wool-cashmere in cabernet last week and I don’t want my high to end..ha.
Boston Copley has polka dot clutches for $39.99 plus 25% off.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone here machine washed their Twill Minnie Pants on the delicate cycle and machine dried them? Do they bleed? Do they shrink? Do they come out fine?
ReplyDeleteMine are just ever so slightly too big, even though I sized down, but I don't want to completely ruin them. Since I just got my first pair (got 'em in v.f. red), I'm hesitant to experiment so much and need your sage advice. TIA for all helpful replies.
I have with my navy ones. They didn't bleed and the texture came out the same as before (I used cold water/low heat). I think they shrank a little bit, which was my goal.
DeleteThe bi-stretch wool minnies are a different story. Their texture changed in the dryer, and they shrank a size.
Thanks, Cate O. I feel much better now knowing someone else has done this already and the pants came out fine. Now that the size of your twill pair is right, do you air dry them to avoid more shrinkage? Or was the total shrinkage just the little bit?
DeleteI'll be sure to avoid putting any wool pairs in the wash. Such a shame! Hope they weren't completely ruined for you.
Ladies, does anyone have any fit and/or review info on the Collection Pony hair skirt from last year? I find myself really taken with the uniqueness of this piece. I know it could only be worn once or twice per season, but think it would make a really nice special addition to my closet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for any help you can give :-)
Received my black pixie pants recently, and I love them! They look great with a long sweater, JC boots, and the downtown field jacket. They're a great, thick weight, too (not as sheer as leggings). My only issue with them is that the tag says "dry clean only," which is not practical--and is also very bad for human and environmental health. Does anyone know if these actually could be washed on delicate and hung to dry? Anyone tried it? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLeah, I have repeatedly machine washed (and sometimes dried in the dryer) my pixie pants (some of which are a few years old) and they still look new. Go for it!
ReplyDeleteHas anyone tried the Tweed stripe short, item 13869? I'm curious as to how it feels & fits. Since I'm in CA I think wool shorts & tights can actually work during the fall/winter without freezing to death. Thoughts?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, J. Crew JD! I really hate using dry cleaners, ever since I read a NYT article about how the chemicals were showing up in women's breastmilk. The health and environmental impacts seem worrying. However, I am too selfish to give up my love for JC clothes, and everything I buy seems to have a "dry clean" or "dry clean only" tag. I appreciate your advice--and Gigi's timely blog post about whether to launder dry-clean-only items. I really am going to try to wash as much as I can. I'm also thinking about buying a steamer.
ReplyDelete
