The leather is top quality and the construction is very good. In comparison to the bags J Crew was having made before, this is a huge step up and I suspect they have found a new maker.

Crew's clothing and shoes, but I'm not too crazy about their bags. They aren't made that good, and they're overpriced. Dooney and Bourke bags are my favorite because the quality is good and the bags look good. I love J. Crew’s clothing and shoes, but I’m not too crazy about their bags.

Wow, the convertible one reminds me of the Foley & Corinna one I was e-stalking about a year ago: seen here in gold.

I feel like if I wanted to spend $300+, I'd buy a Marc by Marc Jacobs bag or something! Each collection they have is nice though... I'd wait to see if you can get on sale or w/ a gift card? Also, I feel the same about their shoes... I have bought 2 pairs that I have stalked online to go on sale below $200-300. Both I adore, but I really think they are overpriced as well.

I decided I wanted the tote for my birthday- so I'm going to treat myself to it! A friend has the "Metallic Lexi Clutch" and swears that it was worth the money- and carries it with everything. :) I LOVE the new “Lexi” collection.
