J.Crew of Seasons Past: {a look in the closet}

It's that time again, to take a look at an image of J.Crew pieces from seasons past! As caribbelle (in this post) so beautifully termed, "ye olde j crew of yore".

This post features the Wool Herringbone Jacket in Pink. I want to say this jacket is from 2005. In any case, the ladylike silhouette makes it a classic in anyone's wardrobe.

What are your thoughts on the look(s)/item(s) from the past? Do you find the look(s)/item(s) classic or do you think they are dated?

    Thanks for the pic, Alexis. I have that jacket and now I can make some polyvore sets. ;)

    I just went to check and it's from Fall 2005, the delightful days of leather buttons and tie silk under the collar and beautiful workmanship. Sigh.

    I think it's a classic. I can't wait until it's cool enough to wear.

    I have this jacket in black and it is such a classic, I reach for it again and again and looks as new as when I got it. I see it pop up a lot on ebay, one of these days I will snag another color :)

    I've worn this jacket twice in the past week! Absolutely love it. It came in tall, which I need, and the tall is like it was made for me! Almost snagged the black on eBay recently. Always looking out for this jacket... it is timeless!

    I love this jacket so much! I have pink, black, grey, and camel. So classic and such good quality. I can't believe it is from 2005. I would love to find the green one to add to my collection!

    This is the first time that this has ever happened to me, but I'm wearing this jacket today! I just won it on eBay right before Thanksgiving and I couldn't wait to wear it. I just had to wait until it was cold enough outside!

      I saw that! Totally have my eye on it! I have lost out on 2 green ones in the past couple months, so maybe third time is a charm?

    I just snagged this very jacket in black at Savers for $10!! Obsessed with the silk under the collar and leather buttons. Love love love that its Scottish wool as well, a total classic!

    Ahhh, Holiday 2005. These Robert Noble blazers are so well made and timeless. I bought the fuchsia pink one, NWT about 5 years ago on ebay and fell madly in love. I now also have the camel, gray, black and dark green. I think that there is a light green and a light pink? that I have yet to find in my size. I have amassed quite the collection of blazers, mostly J. Crew and these are some of my favorites.

    I'm selling mine if anyone is interested. It is a size 2 in EUC. It is the tweed version and you see blend of pinky-red-cream. It's a little more sporty than this refined version but the style is the same; leather buttons, silk tie under the collar, fun lining! Let me know if you are interested! jcrewjunkie@sbcglobal.net
