I was pleasantly surprised yesterday to see that J.Crew updated its website to reflect the new arrivals. The September catalog is even available to view online! The old ones have been removed. Goodness, does this mean J.Crew is finally back on track?
I love the new feature called, “Jenna’s Picks.” Like the website says, “Have-to-haves and other fall favorites from our Creative Director-the most stylish person we know.” These are really pretty picks.
Wood-acorn charm bracelet, $85.00, Item 98342
Watercolor garden lydia blouse, $110.00, Item 97750
Satin fleur clutch, $98.00, Item 97736
Serengeti midheels, $175.00, Item 94408
Featherweight merino glass-button cardigan, $88.00, Item 96033
Abstract rose-print dress, $165.00, Item 96517
Donegal tweed école jacket, $198.00, Item 97471
Skinny patent-leather belt, $35.00 Item 98093
Wool-cashmere plaza coat, $325.00, Item 96914
Fontaine dress, $650.00, Item 96056
The list also includes the J.Crew Personal Shopper, which I have to say is a definite must. This is especially true if you are a hard-to-find size or if you adore J.Crew items that quickly become sold out.
What do you think of Jenna’s picks? I love the Fontaine dress and had already written about it in this post.
Happy Shopping!

I just checked out the new arrivals online and I’m in love with that watercolor garden lydia blouse! Jenna is spot on with that top! It reminds me of early autumn in New England—so many colors everywhere you look. Bravo, J. Crew!

I love that blouse too! The colors are so fab.
I’ve also got my eye on the acorn bracelet. It’s a nice classic piece.

I really like that blouse, too. It was one the items I was searching for when I went to the store this weekend, but it was not there!
The sales associate suggested that I order it from the red phone. I politely declined and told her about my previous shipping fiasco. She did not press me any more after that.

I really like their belts. I have the patent leather one in yellow and blue (don’t remember the special jc names) and the bow one in black n white. Very nice.
