The link is <A HREF="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/group.show?id=19995" REL="nofollow"> Here </A>. A bunch of us have already created numerous outfits using alot of the pieces from J.Crew, and you might find some ideas there, as well. You should also join the group, and going along with your idea...maybe we could all use Polyvore to make outfits for the one item in the post for that week? Let me know what you think of all the sets...there are really some fabulous ones!

Either way, good luck!<BR/><BR/>Alexis: This is a random idea, but what if you started posts every so often featuring a popular item and people can suggest different ways to wear the item? I feel like people ask for advice, but it tends to get lost amongst all the other posts and I never really know where to look when I want to go back. It'd be great to see how other people wear their J Crew items and what they wear with them. For example, I love the Jamie jacket, but I not really sure how to wear it other than with trouser jeans and a long printed shirt underneath. Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Also, I finally received an order I placed July 1st. Yay! Customer Service never got back to me when I emailed them and the tracking number didn't exist on UPS or USPS.

But, s/he raises questions. I did business with this seller twice (wouldn't have done it the second time if I'd remembered the name from the first time). Both times the item was buy it now/OBO. Both times I made a full, fair, final offer. Both times the seller tried to haggle me up (annoying but nothing wrong with that, of course). Both times the seller then offered to complete the transaction off eBay (a violation of eBay rules). The second time, after I refused the seller's counteroffer, so s/he came down to my price offer, but then tried to make the difference up by doubling the shipping costs and hoping I wouldn't notice. I will say that the communication was prompt and the items were shipped quickly and in great shape, but let the buyer beware.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-38208759851176643712008-07-31T10:13:00.000-04:002008-07-31T10:13:00.000-04:00Hexicon, my mom took the bar 35 years ago and she ...Hexicon, my mom took the bar 35 years ago and she covers her amazing body (not jealous at all) in Jcrew (thanks to my influence of course.

Of course there are no "select colors" listed at that price in any size. They emailed back saying sorry, that it was due to the website fiasco, and they would give me that $59.99 price for ANY color of the dress that they have in stock.
