Last week has been hectic, both due to dancing practices and me deciding to step up my work schedule a notch. I am so glad I decided to go back, I need some exercise and a fun outlet. With my BF not living here anymore I realized that I had a bit of spare time to do something fun, and is what I like the most. </p> <p>Of course, now I have sore muscles all over, especially in the weird places like my neck and toes. The only downside is that the clothing budget is turning into dancing budget ( it's an extremely expensive sport) so no more shopping for me. But it shouldn't be that hard, since I don't really need anything. </p> <p>This is my next purchase ( mu old dance shoes are falling apart):</p> <p><a href="http://www.showtimedanceshoes.com/product_info.php/cPath/4_7/products_id/62" rel="nofollow">http://www.showtimedanceshoes......ucts_id/62</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31575 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 23:25:49 +0000 Ana 31575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya! I'm so happy you're back to your dancing. Is that why you haven't been on as much? I know you only have so much extra time with your project and school. I'm glad you're spending it doing something you love (I thought maybe your advisor had just come down really hard on you or something). </p> <p>LOL, Patience. It's true! I was just so excited to find a true A-line dress that came to my knees! I have been looking literally for months, and haven't come up with a thing. And it had ruffles on top of everything! It's like J. Crew can read my mind, heh. The only change I would make is I wish it weren't black (I have a hard time figuring out how to make a black dress look interesting-yet-casual), but I'll take what I can get. I think I might layer my tomato red cardi over it. Not sure about shoes yet. I'm so excited, I'm doing my happy dance. </p> <p>Thanks for the compliment. It's fun shopping with you, too, by the way. </p> <p>Laura, I will definitely be getting it soon, probably in the next month or so, I think. I will report on the color (I'll have to order it, as I haven't seen that color in the stores). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31520 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:37:31 +0000 Patience 31520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am drooling too. I like the long sleeve version of the ruffly blouse. And Kyle, I have the wool pencil skirt in plain black and it is absolutely awesome. I really want to buy another one if they go on sale. I'm wearing it every week. I'm also partial to the polka dot flats.</p> <p>I also have to share that it is so much fun going shopping with Ana (this is probably obvious). She was positively squealing with delight in the dressing room over the ruffle neck shift. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31512 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:17:43 +0000 Anonymous 31512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrtulations Tanya on being back to dancing. That is very exciting!<br /> You J Crew ladies are really stylish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31504 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:05:44 +0000 Tanya 31504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I really like all of their new ruffly blouses and some cashmere sweaters, but I probably won't be buying anything any time soon. I went back to my ballroom dancing and am saving up for new dance shoes, as well as private lessons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31488 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 14:34:16 +0000 Laura 31488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I'm dying to see the Victoria blouse in golden olive on you. Incredible with the colors of cardis you describe! Such sophisticated combos. Are you going to get it soon? Hope so - Want to see it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31449 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:49:00 +0000 Ana 31449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Elizabeth halter was back ordered and then sold out last holiday season. I think the same will happen with this Victoria blouse too. I have the Elizabeth halter in ivory already, so I was thinking I'd like to go for a color with the Victoria blouse, but one I can still layer or make look great on its own. The golden olive would look really sharp under a cream, black, citron, or my tomato red cardigan, but also on its own, so I'm really hoping it works with my coloring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31447 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:45:38 +0000 Laura 31447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are hilarious, Ana!</p> <p>I have to agree with JJ as well - that sleeveless Victoria ruffle shirt is great too. In fact the saleswoman told me they were flying off the shelves on Friday (in ivory in particular). It's an amazing layering piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31441 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:27:11 +0000 Ana 31441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, and this in pale almond as a layering piece under cardis:</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/shirts/PRDOVR~99696/99696.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99696.jsp</a></p> <p>hee hee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31439 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:26:11 +0000 Ana 31439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!! And they have some items in store right now that aren't even up on the site yet. I want this dress:</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/dresses/solidstextures/PRDOVR~99371/99371.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99371.jsp</a></p> <p>And this blouse, possibly in the golden olive (if it doesn't make me look sallow) or navy (safe choice). I might go for the orange though (or get it in orange and another color, lol). It's the sleeveless version of the blouse you like:</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/shirtstops/camisblouses/PRDOVR~99742/99742.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99742.jsp</a></p> <p>And there's a black dress that has short sleeves and is A line, and has the same collar as the blouse above. It's light flannel wool--perfect for our warm winters! That is on my list to buy this week with some birthday money I got. It's not up on the site yet, but I tried it on Friday and got the thumbs up from Sarah and Patience.</p> <p>I want this ring, in either black or citron:</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/jewelry/rings/PRDOVR~11134/11134.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../11134.jsp</a></p> <p>And possibly this skirt, although I'd definitely need to try it on first. Maybe the snow color would go with my new tweed jacket (might be too classic looking though):</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/skirts/PRDOVR~10582/10582.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../10582.jsp</a></p> <p>I'm so excited! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31438 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:25:12 +0000 julijuli 31438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kyle - I saw the ruffle shirt as well and I have to agree with Laura - it's really pretty. I've got it the white one on my sale list too! I also like this:</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/shirts/PRDOVR~99742/99742.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99742.jsp</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31436 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:19:33 +0000 Laura 31436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kyle, I saw the striped pleated ruffle shirt the other day and it is really amazing. Wonder what the dry cleaner might do to those ruffles in the laundry?! It's definitely on my list when/if it goes on sale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ana-the-new-j-crew-arrivals#post-31432 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:13:59 +0000 Kyle 31432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you seen the new arrivals? </p> <p>What do you love so far?</p> <p>How about our other J. Crew fans? What are you eyeing (or buying)?</p> <p>I am lusting over these pencil skirts...<br /> <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/skirts/PRDOVR~99466/99466.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99466.jsp</a><br /> <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/skirts/PRDOVR~99737/99737.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99737.jsp</a><br /> This blouse, Yum...<br /> <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/shirts/PRDOVR~99693/99693.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99693.jsp</a><br /> This tank (heaven in bright poppy)...<br /> <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/knitstees/PRDOVR~99268/99268.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../99268.jsp</a><br /> And several other things, too.<br /> But I am not buying any of them. Perhaps one or two will make it onto a Christmas list at some future date! </p>
