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! :)
Here’s what I’ve seen so far as pages on website are still at the “oops we’ve done it”again mode. New cashmere BA400 crew neck sweaters in more of a relaxed fit. 17 colors. Not sure about the prices but they are $118.00 now instead of $98.00. A few dresses, ponchos, blouses, and an ugly denim patch pocket skirt, etc. a
ReplyDeletePages are still loading so I’m unable to view certain other new items at the moment. Pricing appears to be a little higher on certain items. As of now, I’m not interested in anything.
Ponchos. No. I never considered that item to be "preppy."
DeleteRegarding the cashmere sweater BA400, listed as fitted and under full description more of a relaxed fit. Now explain to me why the company can’t employ a proficient copywriter.
ReplyDelete@Lynn noticed that too #sigh
Delete@fleur de lys, unbelievable. See anything that knocked your socks off? BTW, I sent a request to follow you in IG. It’s under Monaco Yacht
DeleteA small thing, but I notice it because 00 is usually my size in these days of super vanity sizing: Sizes are listed (left to right) in order of smaller to larger. Some of the more recent items show sizes 0 00 2. That would be like listing XS XXS S.
Deletewooooo wooooo The Return of the Copywriter From Space……

Delete@lynn aaarggh, deleted that, didn’t know it was you. Tango?

Oh dear. Pas chic.
DeleteWHY
DeleteFuture fashion *don't* award.
DeleteThe model looks like she's struggling to keep a straight face.
Delete@pbanos, you’re right she does. Perhaps it’s because the ugly mules she has on.
Delete@Miss JR, what’s Ms Libby thinking? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
ReplyDeleteSo much of this looks sort of like Eileen Fisher to me. I realize that some do love that look, but it doesn't appeal to me. I'm more attracted to tailored clothing.

ReplyDeleteHonestly, I kinda feel like J.crew is trolling me now. I want fun prints and colors and more relaxed full length chinos and less ruffles and puff sleeves and what i see is cropped wide leg pull on pants and shirts with puff sleeves and ruffles. I really miss the old days.
ReplyDeleteI do like the merino ribbed sweater in olive but the extra ruffle on the collar is unnecessary. The dresses don’t appeal to me. I purchased a few items from NAP sale that I have been stalking. Their sale was further reduced this am. I prefer their app nowadays. Lots of variety and natural materials.
ReplyDelete@kikigirl saw the merino ribbed sweater too. Would have ordered it but for the ruffle. Even spent a moment thinking how to get rid of the ruffle collar …… Hoping there will also be a non ruffle collar version later on #fingerscrossed
Deletethe inspiration is the Toddlers Better Clothing Dept from Best & Co circa 1954:

@WFF, wore them all when I was a “little one”. Today I refuse to dress like a “little one.”
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY!
ReplyDeleteOne of the fashion stylists refers to this stuff as "kidult." The only thing I can see they've left out are the jumpers with big appliqués.

Trying to wrap my head around this rollout in anticipation of fall, historically one of J Crew’s best seasons. Does anyone need a puffy sleeved coverall or a one-shoulder ruffle dress in bleached Ikat? WTAF.
ReplyDeleteI echo the sentiments above. I feel like I don’t necessarily dress my specific age, but I find nothing appealing or cute about dressing like a toddler.
