I've owned the Phoebe and Madeline sheath dresses and I think the fit of this new one is the best yet (at least for me). Its a little trimmer through the upper torso so it has a more flattering shape. The neckline is not too deep. It hits at the knee for me. (I am 5"-4".) I run between a 6 and 8, and took an 8 in this one.<br /><br />Fabric is very nice. The laser-cut wool ribbon at the neckline is applied asymmetrically. It gives an otherwise simple dress some edge.Memehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15498443667948818294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-34465963877524592182009-10-12T22:12:38.286-04:002009-10-12T22:12:38.286-04:00Is the Edie paisley jacquard dress new?

FFM, I totally missed the plaid shirt on Jenna's picks, amanda and Math Teacher, I will looks for those. I'm not looking to become a plaid magnet but a really bright plaid like the tartan and the navy gingham can look so great with a cute cardigan and jeans. I'm pretty set on getting one or two, just need to find them - a crisp plaid with white or navy, no beige.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00675063796680537865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-46162948071236625962009-10-12T21:47:47.616-04:002009-10-12T21:47:47.616-04:00I don't see a single thing I want or will buy....I don't see a single thing I want or will buy.

Have stuck up for J. Crew in the past but can not do it any longer. We have now been seeing the same thing for about the last 18 months. Usually J. Crew was ahead of trends. If we saw ruffles at J. Crew one year, they were at all the other stores the next. Now, the economy is making it difficult for retailers to move on or past trends, so we are still stuck with these pieces. I really miss the beautiful exciting J. Crew. I am bored. There is nothing here we have not seem before. Ok - we have not seen the clown pants before, but I consider that a good thing. Jenna - Please go on an inspiration trip. Somewhere you have never been before. Come home with an idea for the next thing I will LOVE!jessie b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10160976655457028067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-91668052610464050192009-10-12T20:37:43.058-04:002009-10-12T20:37:43.058-04:00I havent seen anything in like 3 catalogs that I w...I havent seen anything in like 3 catalogs that I want to buy.

Too bad it is such a letdown. Boring styles, boring colors, boring models, boring sets (are they really sets or just a panel backdrop?). <br /><br />I like the cashmere silk splendid cardigan. It's a look I could wear with many pieces in my wardrobe, dress up or down. Here's hoping it will come in some nice colors. The linen-silk city pants look like sweats. Paying a hundred bucks for shiny sweats is laughable IMO. As for the rest of the items...
