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. I was reading my sister's October 2012 issue of Lucky Magazine and noticed the Collection leather skirt. The entire outfit retailed just under 10K. Yes, US dollars. So I guess this is where J. Crew wants to head, designer territory.

    1. Lol, my sis just pointed out the "so-ugly-it-hurts" Shearling coat on another page. I wish I knew how to convert a scan to an actual photo document.

    2. I think I know the shearling coat you are referring to, it is in navy color with beige trim. I agree with you, the coat does so dull when compared to other J Crew offerings, and I expect it to hit final sale. jmho...

    3. At one point that coat had sold out or maybe there was only 1 size left.

  5. I don't really need advice on how to wear this item but I was wondering if any of you have feedback on the Minnie Pants in wool? I want a pair for work SO bad and while I think the twill might get saggy and wrinkly from standing up/sitting down over and over I think the wool may hold it's shape better? Also, the wool seems to be more professional appropriate.

    Do any of you have this item and what's your opinion?
