Misty Jackie's on her way (...and she's bringing friends!)


OH I had a great time at J Crew today!  I wasn't planning on going but somehow my car just took the turn to get on the freeway after I'd left Old Navy... and before I knew it ...there I was!

Stock was low... even on full priced items.  The sale racks looked pretty full but most of the sizes were L and XL.  The Jackie stacks were dwindling... two size large Lavenders on a low shelf, and they did not have any of the Desert Brown.  But... the super helpful associate set me up on the Red Phone and they honored my "Mickey Card"!  So now my Misty Lavender Jackie is on her way (well, backordered till April 28th but I am trusting she is going to make it) and the Desert Brown is shipping right away - at a 25% discount with free shipping.  Hooray!

I also asked about the Merino Crosshatch Cardigan  which is now on sale.  I have not heard any buzz about this cardigan at all but something about it really appeals to me.  I have been wanting something in a pewter/silvery gray color and I love, love, love the basketweave chiffon detailing on this sweater.  Maybe it reminds me of my wedding cake.  Anyway, my size was in stock online so this little lovely is on it's way too - in Light Pewter.  Review coming up as soon as it arrives!

In store I purchased the French Terry Cardigan in white.  Super cute and comfy and my SA said it is nice and warm too.

They told me new merchandise is coming in on Wednesday... so I will be making one more trip before my red card expires.

I also purchased some great things at Old Navy this morning (and a couple cute skirts at Target)... so posts on that to follow in the next day or two!  I hope everyone is having a lovely weekend.  We are off to see the tulips!

  8. Yeah for getting the Jackie's! :) I saw them at Lenox. They usually have a pretty good selection of Jackie's... not sure why they don't sell out there. Victoria ruffle camis, on the other hand, are an entirely different story. :)
