I never even heard of a 36 inch inseam but that's what is considered tall by JC. But even if I were to shorten them slightly, the crotch bags and sags. So I stay away from tall sizes. Oh- and don't even get me started on the boots. Why are the calf sizes so BIG?! Even the ones that are not extended calf sizes are too big. So I can't buy them.The American Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670206738114517664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-18074863472092638512012-11-15T23:47:34.009-05:002012-11-15T23:47:34.009-05:00Japan is really, really far away!

The one associate who was helping me in the fitting room said he would do it when another associate interjected and said that I could not combine offers. I have done this in every single J.Crew store I have shopped at all over the country, so I was prepared to put all my merchandise back, especially when that other SA was so snooty. I got my teacher discount and my additional % off, but it the lack of consistency is irritating. <br /><br />That store in particular has a bad vibe in general. I'm sad it's the closest one to me. I never get greeted in that store, and most times, I'm left to wander around the store with no one offering to help me. Last time I was in there, I had an armful of clothing, and no one ever asked me to start a fitting room, so I put all the merchandise back and left without making a purchase.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13503161916625325585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-29852657905595399772012-11-15T09:12:25.962-05:002012-11-15T09:12:25.962-05:00My general vent is the pants.

...This isn't exactly a vent, more a question...<br /><br />I just received the retro jade Jules and love it --- the color, the fit, the length (I'm 5'3), everything. I also got the gray Factory Jules dress, thinking I'd love that too and not wanting to pay the extra $20-30 for retail. However, the factory dress has a seam that goes all the way across the back horizontally (it continues on the front where the pockets are). The retail dress has the horizontal seam on the front but not the back and it is so much more flattering. I was going to return the factory Jules and buy the retail one in gray, but checked the online picture just to make sure --- and it looks like the retail version also has that seam on the back! <br /><br />Can anyone who has or has tried on the retail Jules dress in gray tell me if it has that seam on the back? I can't figure out why it would, since the retail Jules in retro jade does not, but want to make sure before I order and return the factory version.
