This is one of the new arrivals that I'm anxious to try out but would like to know how it fits since it's alpha-sized and not numeric, which can be difficult for me to get the right size. Last year's military jacket was alpha-sized and fit huge. Wonder if this is the same or TTS.xoxohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12336645422459479330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-24278319147694098062010-06-08T15:33:11.885-04:002010-06-08T15:33:11.885-04:00I gave in this morning and ordered the Adriana sil...I gave in this morning and ordered the Adriana silk top in classic navy in two different sizes (one regular and one petite) and the featherweight cashmere crewneck in black that was on my wishlist.Emahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08331051805268660458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-59036048463790657292010-06-08T15:24:57.792-04:002010-06-08T15:24:57.792-04:00saved $51!!! i'm so happy!!!

In between time I picked up the linen military blazer in white and a few tees and sweaters. Tried all day yesterday to get in but couldn't and figured it was probably for the best. Got in today though and pulled the trigger on the following:<br />-Lone leather heels in soft apricot<br />-Alice ruffled tank in warm fig<br />-some perfect fit v neck tees for the winter<br />-Cashmere v neck cardigan in light citron and sea mist<br />-3" chino short pale cinnabar<br />-metallic moss skirt<br />-busted white denim mini<br />and...<br /> Thanks to Lauren and MDPA for mentioning the felted wool mini, I picked one up in gray. I purchased a kenneth cole version from loehmann's last winter but it was too big and I wound up returning it. <br />Is this volume in the normal range for a jcrew newbie? hope I'm not buying too much. I pay my card at the end of each month.;)Ms. Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03457813155063537238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-78656371623949941522010-06-08T09:49:30.694-04:002010-06-08T09:49:30.694-04:00Genny, Thank you!

It's very fitted around the chest and loose and gauzy elsewhere. I usually can't wear J.Crew dresses that aren't fitted for fear of looking like a tent but since this one is offered in smaller sizes it's worked out for me well. The one thing that surprised me was the color - on the site it looks like a pale peach but it's actually more of an orange.<br /><br />Can anyone comment on the fit of the petite Super 120s high pencil skirt?

I know a lot of people said this ran really big but I did not find that the case. I ordered my usual size and one size down and both would work depending on what I wore underneath....I keep the size 8 instead of my usual 10 b/c I liked the body fit better in it. However, the underarm area was a bit tighter than normal for me. The 10 fit better there but not so tight that it would bother me.(original) Gennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209889879826124486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-57778544673499504962010-06-08T06:58:38.122-04:002010-06-08T06:58:38.122-04:00RealWorking Mom OC,

I finally did actually buy somethings that it looks like many of you were peering at as well.<br /><br />For me I'm excited about the Dauphine jacket, the Nadja bomber and some bling: the Majesty cocktail ring and Prism neclace and the Turkish Delight pencil skirt. I went back and forth on the torque tee shirt and decided to pass. I have a feeling it might be pretty on but it is thin and all of my thin J Crew tees have met with sad endings (jewelry, pet nails, small child "love")<br /><br />There were many cute things: rose vines blazer would have been mine had I not bought the Liberty one last year. The beach chambray ruffled vest is deal at 29.99 and would be super cute with something without ruffles like a tee and cargoes. The Checkered Puckered Shift dress would be very chic for an afternoon wedding or luncheon with a little bling and affordable. <br /><br />I really agreed with crowd with the Andre dress but not any great colors for me. Happy shopping. I am happy NO Final Sale, free shipping, and enough to pull the trigger.HoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02055197312398805384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-37621801549660230812010-06-08T00:04:28.083-04:002010-06-08T00:04:28.083-04:00Anyone know how Floral Cara beach dress fits?Anyone know how Floral Cara beach dress fits?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-69293628357513326932010-06-07T23:46:16.274-04:002010-06-07T23:46:16.274-04:00I think I will pass!
