J.Crew’s newest arrivals have hit the stores and the website. You can view the latest catalog here.

While browsing the newest items this weekend, I came across items made from Mongolian Lamb. J.Crew describes them as “Mongolian lamb that’s been finished at a famed French mill (it’s incredibly soft and cozy with an amazing texture).”

I’m not sure that I will be sporting any of the three items anytime soon. What are your thoughts on the tote and vests?

Mongolian lamb tote, $795.00, Item 29476

Mongolian lamb vest, $800.00, Item 29111

The Lexi Collection from J.Crew

Siv Lam — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 14:00:40 +0000

Last Fall, J.Crew introduced shoppers to the idea of buying J.Crew jewelry and handbags. They even sent out an Accessories catalog and opened an Accessories store in New York City. See the post, “J.Crew Accessories Shop Opens in NYC.”

This year, J.Crew continues to wow shoppers with some great handbags. The Lexi Collection features two clutches, a tote and a satchel. The price points are fairly high for J.Crew. The collection retails from $225 to $425. I am still on the fence about paying that much for a handbag from J.Crew

Have you seen any of these handbags in person?

Metallic Lexi Clutch, $225, Item 17545

Lexi Clutch, $225, Item 18252

Lexi Tote, $325, Item 18262

Lexi Satchel, $425, Item 18261

With the most recent release, J.Crew introduced the wool ruffle-front and double cloth camino coats. I love how feminine and versatile both styles are.

What are your thoughts?
