J.Crew Reviews {straight from the JCAs!}

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! :)

  1. Received promo orders this week and most of it worked,

    Reed buffalo check red and navy wool sweater jacket. It’s a little oversized, but not enough to size down if wearing a sweater. Took my normal size and happy with fit. Colors are more muted in person and as noted by @silverlining, it’s more of a tomato red. I’m not a fan of patch pockets and so I decided to return since it’s not something I would wear enough. Wool is soft and a nice quality. Not itchy at all.

    Vintage straight jean in Coastline Wash. Ordered 30 Tall and happy with the fit. Have room in the waist and length is at the top of my foot. Can also roll them for a cropped look that also works. Really like the wash and the denim is a good quality. There’s some stretch, so you may be able to size down.

    Pointed toe slides in glitter. Took my normal size in J Crew slides/mules. They’re lined in leather and that’s a definite plus. Love the feel. Work well with denim and leather leggings. A nice “blingy” option for the holidays.

    Crew tee shirt. Took my normal size & this is a really cute tee. White isn’t sheer and cotton is a nice weight.

    247 New Balance sneakers in pink. There’s no image available, but I took a chance given the price with 35% off promo and so happy I ordered. It’s a lovely soft pink and I took my normal size in NB. Full size run available.

    1. Hi Mygoddy, I too took a chance on the pink NB and was pleasantly surprised! I have the mirror grey ones so I knew they were comfy at least. From what I could find, the light pink appear to have been offered before spring so maybe the found a box in the warehouse? Anyway they’ll be great for next spring. Oddly they won’t ship them to Canada anymore so I’m glad I ordered when I did.
      I took a 9 (my usual) but in the 711 NB I took a 91/2.
