Today the customer service rep said things disappear when they're sold out. But everyday I checked it was available in all 3 colors in both XS and S. I'm just surprised how overnight it could be gone in all three colors in both sizes. I suppose it's possible, but seems unlikely. Plus, normally when an item sells out it will say "We're sorry. This item has been so popular, it has sold out" at least for a little while after it sells out. For the Sirah dress, I can't even find the item page anymore. Does anyone know why this has happened?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-59405002643337035622011-05-07T20:04:19.452-04:002011-05-07T20:04:19.452-04:00sub!sub!Trisha Wallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07900220818025045790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-67873368738861393312011-04-24T19:57:10.893-04:002011-04-24T19:57:10.893-04:00Oh crum, I placed 3 orders today (thanks to free s...Oh crum, I placed 3 orders today (thanks to free shipping), the Safari blazer is the item I most want and was the first order I placed, it's showing "Releasable" while other two are already "Released".

(I had bought two smaller sizes with the intention of doing an enlargement alteration, they are now up for sale in the sale thread, NWT, I will make no profit from them). Still hoping for some other things to pop back. I think I logged on shortly after 5am CDT, seems like I caught the update in progress and yet other shoppers were buying like crazy! The free shipping allowed me to jam the blazer into my cart and checkout right away rather than load up with other stuff. When the WARMUP promo ends, I hope there's a major shoe update.tamara.chicagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16897696857151633520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-32633314915840305462011-04-23T10:30:36.038-04:002011-04-23T10:30:36.038-04:00Only a few minor popbacks this morning so I cleane...Only a few minor popbacks this morning so I cleaned the kitchen. :)<br /><br />I'm feeling a little better about my shoe binge now that it's looking like the J Crew shoe styles are changing and I might not find much I like in the next couple of seasons. I hope I'm not just rationalizing an addiction. :) I think I need to re-read the shopping addiction thread. I love my J Crew shoes. Love love love.

It is a pretty looking dress but such a drab color. <br /><br />I love the Casbah print, but I just don't know if it will go with my skin tone, which is olivish. <br /><br />Rose: Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas!<br />The weather is GREAT in the mid 80s. <br /><br />The style offerings are all over the place, from trendy to confusing IMO. The Toga dress, those baggy crotched pants, What the Heck is going on? <br /><br />Also, J. Crew take a hint from all my shoe shopping returns. We NEED to sell SHOES in Las Vegas, Nevada and you lost a swimsuit sale yesterday as a tourist was asking for a J. Crew swim suit, but sadly, our one and only Retail Store does NOT carry them. Heck, while I am on a rant, bring back a Fashion Show Mall store so we can shop in AC when it is 120 degrees out here in the desert. <br /><br />I'm done.

The zipper pull has some grograin attached to it as well. Another reason I don't like them - when I was trying on the skirt, my top got caught in the zipper.

I didn't like this print online, but it is so pretty irl, it just screams summer. I'll have to go back and get that one. I expected to love the seersucker skirt but the exposed zipper really bugged me (although I have the horizon stripe skirt and the zipper doesn't bother me at all).Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11293365514471454831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-85596441089030183742011-04-21T22:15:05.629-04:002011-04-21T22:15:05.629-04:00AppGal and silver lining, there are factory collec...AppGal and silver lining, there are factory collection items, and it makes no sense to me either. I do have the collection (factory) tiered brique skirt, and it is identical to the retail version. The difference is that I paid $20 for it on clearance on one of the awesome extra 50% off clearance sales they often have at factory stores... all that such an impractical yet cute skirt is worth to me. The retail one was $128, and the factory one was $98.50 I think.J.CrewJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464373354705821248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-55953465772153619862011-04-21T21:46:45.416-04:002011-04-21T21:46:45.416-04:00If you want to see the back of the seersucker penc...If you want to see the back of the seersucker pencil skirt, look at the jenna cardigan.
