The cardigan arrived on Friday, it's a great fit, not sloppy or baggy, and not quite fitted, just something in between.<br /><br />After washing it I noticed a small tear where the body meets the nect band. An email later and she sending a new one as a replacement and she's covering my costs to return it.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to getting it as it's a great weekend/casual piece. I'll wear it with jeans or cords; it may even show-up at work with a shirt and tie and wool pants.jcrew guy in Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13087438754180803097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-37608208931235350472010-10-24T16:22:38.876-04:002010-10-24T16:22:38.876-04:00CharlotteSometimes:

I got the downtown skinny jeans. They're perfect for people who are fed up with the increasingly baggy fit of the matchsticks. They fit just like the matcsticks through about the middle of the thigh, then they're really slim all the way down. They look amazing and the girl helping me said they have been selling really well, so I hope they come out with more washes than the single one they have now. <br /><br />I also got the toothpick pants in forest green and the navy striped bateau tee on super-sale. The pants were like, 25 bucks!petit_smudgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129237088850314729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-38819773597914988272010-10-24T16:16:11.269-04:002010-10-24T16:16:11.269-04:00CharlotteSometimes:

Maybe stick some starch on it while its upside down? <br /><br />I just went to the St. Louis Frontenac bandm and dropped way too much money. I got the downtown skinny (This is amazing for people who are fed up with the matchstick's recent baggy fit). They fit a lot like the matchstick but a lot more slim through from about the midthigh down. The SA said they had been selling really well, so they might come out with more washes than the single one they have at the moment. <br /><br />I also picked up the Bateau tee in navy stripe and the toothpick twill pants in forest green for like, 20 bucks. I love them all.petit_smudgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129237088850314729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-52980061800122814132010-10-24T00:07:56.063-04:002010-10-24T00:07:56.063-04:00I love my 3 sequin/silk sashes I bought tonight. $...I love my 3 sequin/silk sashes I bought tonight. $5 cheaper in store than online.(original) Gennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209889879826124486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-5385435915128392412010-10-22T22:47:25.969-04:002010-10-22T22:47:25.969-04:00Generation Kvetch, I am a tad busty and I love my ...Generation Kvetch, I am a tad busty and I love my Bellas - I have a velvet and a wool. My only complaint is that my "normal" 4 is a bit strained if I button it. Since I never wear it that way, I'm not concerned, but fyi. I remember thinking the 6 was too big. HTH - it is a **fabulous** jacket. I just wish I had kept more colors. :)mommydearesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00137723736975393130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-54660320313857668882010-10-22T17:28:28.916-04:002010-10-22T17:28:28.916-04:00I love the lace tee in black and the drapey sequin...I love the lace tee in black and the drapey sequin tank. <br /><br />The lace tee looks great with a pair of black minnie pants or light wash jeans.

I am thinking of the confetti ruffle cami, pilar paisley cami, and the calista cami. The necks are cute, but still not like J Crew is able to pull off in the model pics. I am generally set against ironing, I hate it, any other ideas?CharlotteSometimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00581852406970706840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-67033975780425930682010-10-21T19:39:36.992-04:002010-10-21T19:39:36.992-04:00Generation Kvetch: The velvet bella's run TTS,...Generation Kvetch: The velvet bella's run TTS, as I wear usually a size 0 and it fit fine.

He is a great guy and is honest about how items look on me. :) He is going out of town this weekend (which is the only time I can get to my b&m), but I called him today and he pulled items for me to try on. If I'm waiting for something to go on sale and it does, he pulls it for me. We've also become friends. He's a former teacher, so we can always talk education and we both are Disney fans! We'll actually be there within days of each other. I think it would be fun to be there during the same time and have dinner and ride a few rides together. I wish all of you could have as good a ps as I do! :)math teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09138745106263001588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-17802130302841909762010-10-21T13:10:28.598-04:002010-10-21T13:10:28.598-04:00I ended up placing a big order of final sale items...I ended up placing a big order of final sale items last week on Wednesday - thought about holding off in case of a % off code, but didn't because I knew everything would disappear as soon as one came out, and the customer service rep I asked over chat said she wasn't aware of any coming up. Anyway, when the 30% off code came out on Friday, I called and asked VERY nicely if they would apply it to my order, and they did, no questions asked, and I was ecstatic.

I recently called because I added the wrong bracelet to my order and instead of having to cancel the ENTIRE order and reorder everything (like i had to before) this nice CSR took care of everything and ordered the new bracelet with no trouble at all.
