J Crew Factory: Grid Jacquard Keyhole Tee, Pencil Skirt in Basketweave, Swing Top with Zip Back, Floral Eyelet Pencil Skirt

I found two set of J Crew Factory items from the last roll-out that I hadn’t reviewed. I am hoping to get to the Factory in the next few weeks to see the latest Fall arrivals.

~ Grid Jacquard Keyhole Tee, White, Medium ~

I really liked this shirt on the hanger but it is really square and boxy. The sleeves just fit on me so there’s no sizing down to a Small. I have room in the chest and shoulders but I think the black colorway looks less ratty, a lot nicer.

There’s a keyhole in the front with a hook-and-eye closure. There’s also a skirt in the same material and pattern.

 

I love this print in the Floral Piqué Dress and since the dress didn’t work out, I was happy to see this print and texture in a pencil skirt. I haven’t bought any pencil skirts in a while and have culled my closest to only a chosen few. The size 6 fit fine on me and the length hits just below the knee. I wanted just a little more wiggle room so I bought the size 8.
 
~ Swing Top with Zip Back, White, Medium ~
I’m not sure how this is a swing top but it is boxy. The Medium is a good fit for me with it fitting a little loose in the shoulders and arms. The back has an exposed short zip. I did need it to take the shirt off and on so it’s not just for show.

I have a linen shirt similar to this one as well as one in black so I can sub either one of those in for this outfit. The cotton is a nice quality and once ironed would seem crisp and polished.

 

~ Floral Eyelet Pencil Skirt, Autumn Crimson, size 6 ~
This skirt runs small and the size 6 was pretty snug. I definitely need a size 8 in this one. It is cotton and lined but there is no give what-so-ever. The red color is saturated and a nice shade; a blue undertone as opposed to orange.
 
I loved the Basketweave Pencil Skirt and can’t wait to wear it. I’ll be sure to post the Que Bella when I do.
What do you think of these skirts from the last roll-out?
