I have the Lexington in black and white and I love it! There is nothing so far that even compares to the Lexington. I feel like the collection is just blahhhhh. Don’t get me wrong It could find a lot of items I would wear, but nothing I couldn’t live without. I think J. Crew needs to cut back on making so much jewelry and travel bags and focus on the clothes. I mean the clothes are what got us hooked. While I am venting what is up with the sale merchandise prices some of the shoes are the same price they were 6 months ago.

I am keeping my fingers crossed for some great, new designs!

I have the Lexington in black with the white piping – I didn’t wear it a lot last year (I bought it late in the season on sale – lucked out on one in my size on sale one day), but I think I will get a lot of wear this year.

I bought the Lexington in black with white piping. I do get alot of compliments on it as well as the Wool Oxford jacket in bright flame Both of these were great jackets from last fall. I’ve have not seen anything this season that compares to the jackets from last year.

Yes, Bella and Lexington were so great….I have Bella in plum color velvet too but wish I bought a wool one. So much nicer than the Ecole this year (I mean the detailing and finishing is so superior, even apart from the styling). I wish they would do a redo of these two styles in some updated colors/fabrics…..sounds like lots of us would buy

I’m one of those like Aasha who never really caught on when they came out with this. I bought mine – the white with the yellow piping – only this year via ebay! But once I got it, I so regret not being able to get when all the colors were available.

That being said, I also got the Bella in Oatmeal (I think that’s the color) this year – again via ebay. So many exceptional jackets last year – none this year really measure up, sadly.

I like this jacket but did not fall in love with it or purchase it. The one I Loved and bought is the Bella in plum velvet and the ruffled Chesire??or something like that name???in the Nov. 2007 catalog…I got it in tomato, salt and pepper, and the camel. I love the ruffle detail.

Ok you can laugh – but I have it in Azalea and in both the Black and Grey with piping – I never bought it at full price when it first came out – passing up it despite my PS’s recommendation. Then, after realizing how great it was, became obsessed with getting it – I checked the Final Sale site daily last December, and finally one day they had a grey in a zero, then a day later a black. I bought both thinking I’d unload one on Ebay (where there was quite the cottage industry going on for these jackets) and I have yet to do so. Like Leigh I get SO many compliments when I wear it, and I don’t think any jacket this year comes close to this one….
