Oops I did it again...
As many of you may know, I live near J.Crew concept store. They usually receive the new arrivals a little bit ahead of other stores and before those items show up online. Last weekend my PS sent me an email that they would be receiving new rollout merchandise and putting it on the floor on Tuesday. Tuesday was Valentine's Day and I was not willing to spend my evening in the mall, but on Wednesday I stopped by on my way from work, to check it out. I took a lot of pictures (close to 80) and tried on quite a few things. I am pretty excited to be reporting it to you.
Since there are a lot of pictures, it will take me a while to post and describe everything. Today I am only posting window display pictures to give you an idea what I will be reviewing.

| I tried the Dress and Skirt. I reviewed Polka Dot Popover here |
 |
| I tried on the navy striped t-shirt on the left and red popover on the right |
 |
| I tried on the sweater |
 |
| Didn't try it but the shorts are very cute - it is an adorable apple print |
 |
| Didn't try but the Elinor solid dress is in the store, Rose tried it here |
 |
| Tried the polka dot sweater |
 |
| Tried the silk blouse |
 |
| Tried the sweater under the jean jacket, capris were in store, not sure about the dress |
Stay tuned for IRL fitting room pictures tomorrow.
This is what I took to the fitting room with me:
 |
| to the left are two new pencil skirts, one navy and one printed |
Do you see something that you like? Do you like the colors and how they styled it in my store? What would you like me to review first?
So exciting - I absolutely love your previews! I'd love to see your review of the patterned pencil skirt, brown and cream polka dot sweater, navy and red striped silk tee and ivory and red patterned sweater (in the third photo down). But of course those are just my personal picks :).
ReplyDeleteI like the polka dot tops- they look like nice thin layering pieces!
ReplyDeleteI think the large black on white polka dot print doesn't quite look special enough- not like previous neat J Crew dot patterns (like the ink dot!)
TDGD, I agree about the dot size.
DeleteOoooo Ajc! I am anxiously awaiting your reviews. Thanks SO much for posting - your b&m looks like an awesome store and how great to see the new previews before they arrive elsewhere. I am loving all these looks. Love the navy, red, polka dot, and tan combos!
ReplyDeleteOh lucky you, looking forward to reading your reviews.
ReplyDeletethank you so much for the pics.you are lucky, you not only live next to a store,but to a concept store!
ReplyDeletei love it all,but i really liked the beige tee with the red polka dots.did you try that?
I think I see striped sequins in there...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these great pics & teasing us w/the preview. Congratulations on your blog!! I've been reading, but unable to comment thru my phone for some reason. I'm sure it's smart phone, "challenged" user. Nothing wrong w/your blog.
How fun! I am also looking forward to your reviews. :)
ReplyDeleteHow fun this is, thanks ajc, looking forward to your reviews.
ReplyDeleteoh, please tell me the navy/red stripe is not sequins!
ReplyDeleteThank you for these delicious photos. All this and no sales tax on clothes. Sigh.
Thank you, ajc, this is awesome! Those polka dot tees/sweaters are calling my name, as is that pretty navy and red stripe. Like wellfedfred I hope that there are no sequins. Can't wait to see the dresses on you...I suspect that the waistlines will be too high for me once again, but it's so hard to tell without a body in the dress!
ReplyDeleteOoh, so fun and exciting to have a little preview of what's to come! I saw the orange dress in my store. Did you happen to catch how much the striped jacket was? I'm looking forward to all of your reviews!
ReplyDeleteSo exciting, I can't wait to here about the two polka dot sweaters and those apple shorts are just to darn cute.
ReplyDeleteInteresting this looks like Tommy Hilfiger circa early 2000's
ReplyDeleteI'm dying to hear more about the stripe silk tee. I sure hope you think it's a winner. I have a gift card from Christmas that so far I've been uninspired to spend.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the photos!!
It must be such fun to be one of the first to see and try what's new. Looking forward to your reviews.
ReplyDeleteI'd better hold on to my wallet. See lots of things that look like must haves. You are SO lucky to live near a concept store; I am jealous! Thank you, thank you for posting the pictures & reviews!!
ReplyDeleteThanks SO much for these images!!!! I am looking forward to your reviews! I need to make a trip to your concept store!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for these pics! The big dot items are cute... looks like the same scale as the flamenco dot dress, and the flamenco dot popover from 2008. I have the dress and it is among my favorites. Of course, those pieces were delicious silk twill.
ReplyDeletePlease review the polka dot dress and skirt soon!
CRAP!!! Crapcrapcrap I'm in some serious trouble! I looooove that beige polka dot sweater. Cannot wait to see the IRL pics and price on that one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pics! Looking forward to more!
Thanks for the photos, looking forward to your reviews, too!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks super-cute but in particular I love the (apple?) sweater, the striped silk tee (and coat, but that's out of my price range, I think) and the geo-print capris (that could cure me from current floral capris infatuation. Hope that the price of these will be more reasonable than $300). Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeletelove the polka dots and that spring coat with stripes looks pretty wonderful. so looking forward to your reviews. xo
ReplyDeleteLots of cute items! The navy/white tunic is my favorite item. Ooh, and fifth pic down there looks to be a new bracelet, the one with round shapes closest to the hand.
ReplyDeleteThank you soooo much for previewing these items! Can't wait for the reviews. :)
Can't wait to read your reviews! I'm loving the polka dot skirt, the beige polka dot sweater, the sequin sweater, and the striped blouse.
ReplyDeleteEEEEKKKK...I love these pics. I want to live near a concept store (best that I don't :) I love the polka dot skirt with denim and a pop of red...I will buy that skirt! I also love those cute shorts (apple) paired with a striped top and the striped silk top is a must...
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Thanks so much for the pics!! Can't wait for the reviews...looks like I'm in BIG trouble! :o)
ReplyDeleteWow, this is my first time making a comment but just wanted to thank you for the awesome pics. I'm in trouble I really love the long dress with the print same as the capri pants, if you see the dress in the B&M would you be able to tell me the name of the dress and price? TIA,
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the reviews! Those apple shorts are adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteOooOoh fun stuff! I like the baseball tee & scarf that's on the mannequin next to the mannequin with the polka dot sweater.
ReplyDeleteOh awesome! Thanks so much for sharing the pics! Can't wait to see your try-on's! So excited for the next rollout! Squeeee!!!
ReplyDeleteJust discovered your blog via the Mothership :) Fabulous review, thanks so much for taking these photos and sharing them with us! I wish I had a store closer than 6 hours from me :P
ReplyDeleteYour newest follower :D

Thank everybody for the comments!!! I just wanted to say that I am very excited to be sharing those images with you. Before I started this blog being able to see the new arrivals ahead of the online rollout was not as much fun because I couldn't talk to anybody about them. When you cannot share your experience it is just not the same. So thank you so much for reading and commenting, it makes my day!!!
