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 purse, $395.00, Item 29491
Mongolian lamb tote, $795.00, Item 29476
Mongolian lamb vest, $800.00, Item 29111
Mongolian lamb vest, $800.00, Item 29111

JCrewAholics is turning 2 this month. Wow! The last two years have been so much fun.
To celebrate, we’re hosting some fun giveaways this month. Yesterday, there was a mini giveaway on the Facebook page. Congrats to Natale Smith for winning a bottle of Essie nail polish by being the first to leave a comment on the page.

Last night, I stopped by the J.Crew store in the Westfield Mall in San Francisco and picked up some fun goodies. Thanks so much to Sam, a fabulous personal shopper at the store, for helping me out. I left with some great items!

I love spotting look-a-like items and finding that J.Crew is the better value.
Lately, I have been eyeing up this striped tee.
Look at the two versions: one is from Alice + Olivia and the other is from J.Crew. The price difference is $313!

Back in February, Net-A-Porter announced that it would begin to carry some J.Crew items in its online boutique. The items are now live but the selection is small.

Back in February, I picked up a reusable canvas tote at my local J.Crew store. I was surprised to see that they were not on the website so I picked up an extra one. I figured you can never have too many reusable totes.
To my pleasant surprise, I found the totes on the J.Crew website this past weekend. The prints are different from the ones that were in my local store. But they are still fun!
Have you picked one up yet? If you have, what are you carrying in yours?
