J Crew Factory: Skinny Jean in Gray, Skinny Jean in Black, Printed Collared Popover

As I said from my Shoes-day post, the Factory has been rockin’ with their offerings and deals. I have bee wearing my retail Toothpick Jeans in Dolphin Gray so much that I felt I needed another pair. When I saw the Factory had their own version, the Skinny Jean in Gray, for way way less than the retail I placed an order. I took my regular Toothpick size of  30. They fit well, almost exactly like my retail jeans. They could use a little hemming to fix the bunching at the bottom.

The heel is from Zara, the Pointed High Heel. They are a great dupe of the Vince Claire Heel for way way less. I saw the Cobalt in my store last week and grabbed those as well. They will be great to punch up an all gray or all black or neutral outfit.

   

Because the Gray version did so well I ordered the same Skinny Jean in Black.  Now, I have the retail Toothpick Jean in Coated Denim but since those are trendy I wanted to have a backup pair in a non-embellished black. Again, I bought my normal size of 30 but I am debating on trying the size 29 as I have a little room to give. The denim is just a little different than the gray which probably accounts for the sizing difference. As with the Gray jean, I will need to hem these just a touch to fix the bunching at the bottom.

   
I could not stop looking at the Factory Printed Collared Popover. I don’t know if it was the color or the print but I had to order it just to try it on. It’s 100% poly and the size 8 fit well on me. It looks to be slightly shaped and not as boxy as most popover and pajama-style shirts but I am still on the fence with this one. I like the print and don’t mind the material and the sleeves hide my upper arms but there’s just something about it that I can’t put my finger on. I’ll probably return it but it is really cute. 

Now that I know my size for the Factory Skinny Jeans I will probably buy those instead of the retail versions. They seem to be just as well made at a much lower price. 
Have a Great Day!
